Why Choose the Lovato LVFSA1D10 Float Switch?
The Lovato LVFSA1D10 is a float switch for drinking-water level control, designed for automatic monitoring and control of liquid levels in tanks, reservoirs and water-storage systems. Part of the Lovato LVFS float switch range, this version is supplied with a 10 m cable for flexible installation in potable-water applications.
The LVFSA1D10 operates through the movement of its floating body as the water level rises or falls. This mechanical movement changes the state of the internal electrical contact, providing a simple and dependable signal for controlling pumps, valves, contactors or compatible level-control equipment.
Designed specifically for applications involving drinking water, the LVFSA1D10 provides a practical solution for automatic filling or emptying control. Its long factory-fitted cable allows the switching point to be positioned appropriately within deeper tanks while keeping the electrical connection outside the liquid.

Reliable Level Control for Drinking-Water Systems
Float switches provide straightforward liquid-level detection by using buoyancy to operate an internal switching mechanism. As the water level changes, the Lovato LVFSA1D10 moves with the liquid surface and changes its electrical contact state at the required switching position.
This principle makes the LVFSA1D10 well suited to automatic water-management systems. Depending on the control circuit, the switch can be used to start or stop filling and emptying equipment, helping prevent tanks from overflowing or running below the required operating level.
Typical Applications
- Drinking-water storage tanks.
- Potable-water reservoirs.
- Automatic tank filling systems.
- Automatic tank emptying and pump control.
- Building water-management systems.
- Industrial installations handling drinking water.
