Gelzon Cable Float Switch

Gelzon Cable Float Switch*

A cable float switch is used in *water tanks, sumps, or pumps* to automatically turn the pump ON/OFF based on water level.

---

## *1. Understand the Parts*

From the image, the float switch has:

* The *float body*( Red box)
* A long *cable with 5 wires*

* *Blue* – Neutral
* *Brown* – Common
* *Black* – Normally Open (NO) / Pump control wire
(Colors may vary depending on model—check label or manual)

---

## *2. How It Works*

* When the float *rises, it completes the circuit → **Pump starts*
* When the float *drops, it breaks the circuit → **Pump stops*

You can reverse the direction depending on tank type:

* *Emptying Mode (Drain Tank):* Pump turns ON when float rises.
* *Filling Mode (Fill Tank):* Pump turns ON when float drops.

## *3. Wiring Instructions (Basic)*

## *4. Float Placement*

1. Hang the float switch inside the tank using the cable.
2. Secure the cable with a clamp or weight (included or bought separately).
3. Leave at least *20–30 cm* free movement space.
4. Ensure the cable does not get stuck on tank walls.

## *5. Testing*

1. Turn ON power.
2. Lift the float manually:

* Pump should *start/stop* depending on your wiring mode.
3. Lower the float:

* Pump should respond opposite way.
