Float, level sensors play but a small role within the broader applications of industrial automation, but in many situations, they are critically important to the efficient and reliable operation of the equipment. The QT114-IS is a float switch designed to be a high-performance, highly reliable, cost-effective alternative to conventional level sensing technologies. This post looks at the applications of the QT114-IS, and explains its working principles.

The QT114-IS can be used to monitor the level of liquid in containers ranging from residential cisterns to commercial fuel tanks. It is suitable for applications where the fluid has a minimum viscosity of 0.6mPa s, maximum viscosity of 300mPa s, and temperatures between 0°C and +85°C. It can be either mounted at the bottom of a tank or immersed directly into the liquid.

The float switch consists of a small, lightweight buoyancy system that adjusts the length of a pivoting arm which controls the switching function. This micro-switch is configured to turn on when the float moves up to a certain level or turn off when the float moves down to a certain level. It uses an independent mechanical contact that opens and closes in response to changes in the level of a liquid. The exact height at which the switch is triggered is set by attaching the optional `hinge points\' to any location on the switch. This makes the QT114-IS suitable for use in containers of different shapes and sizes.

The switch has two wired outputs: a dry contact output and a 2-wire power contact output. The dry contact output is a SPDT (Single Pole Double Throw) configuration, and is sealed and dust-proof to prevent water or dust from entering the contacts. The 2-wire power contact output is designed to control the switching of an electrical device. It is sealed and dust-proof to ensure long-term operation, and can carry up to 3A of current.

In addition to the wired outputs, the QT114-IS includes a built-in radio module. This allows the device to send wireless signals to the receiver, allowing users to monitor and control the switch through a connection to the Internet. The wireless modules are designed to be compatible with multiple smart home solutions and home automation protocols such as Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, Z-Wave, and CAN-Bus. This expands the range of applications in which the switch can be used.

The working principle of the QT114-IS is quite straightforward. When the float is in the raised position, it will complete the electrical circuit of the switch, thus triggering the desired output. When the float lowers, the switch will break the electrical circuit. Depending on the configuration, the switch can be configured to be normally open (NO) or normally closed (NC). The QT114-IS is an ideal solution for any application that requires reliable, accurate, and cost-effective level monitoring. It is well suited for use in a variety of applications such as water storage systems, fuel tanks, and chemical tanks. Its radio module also allows it to be used in a wide range of Internet of Things (IoT) applications, making it a suitable choice for smart home and home automation systems.
