 BILGE ALARM / WATER LEVEL SWITCH
A compact but rugged bilge well alarm switch designed for Marine use on vessels of all sizes. The integral manual checking device conforms to class rules without complicating installation. Siting and mounting is simple requiring only a two bolt fixing and the self draining fully shrouded design prevents interference of operation from obstructions or floating debris.

Due to the harsh environments that this bilge switch is likely to encounter, extensive successful testing was carried out exceeding the required environmental testing for all Marine Type Approvals.
