Product Description

The 10-404 is the flange-mounted four-level switch set — identical to the 10-403 in switch count and nipple architecture, but using a bolted flange nut mount instead of a 2" NPT threaded adapter. The 10-700-FN flange nut and 10-700-FS flange nut with seal provide the tank interface; the 10-700-R4 four-level receptacle seats above. Four 10-782 switches on the precision nipple, three 10-700-S4 spacers, single 10-700-WC-NY liquid-tight connector. Outside-in, no internal access required.

Same NL formula, same BD and CD dimensions as the 10-403. Select the 10-404 when the tank has a flange-lid port or when a bolted flange connection is preferred over a threaded 2" NPT adapter.

Polypropylene for water-based and mild chemical service.

What Makes the 10-403-PP the Right Choice

Four independent switch levels
Pump start, pump stop, high alarm, low alarm — or any four-level control scheme on a single nipple.
2″ NPT adapter + R4 receptacle
Four-conductor R4 receptacle. Outside-in, no internal access.
ERECTA SWITCH modular architecture
Every component is independently field-replaceable. Switches, connectors, fittings, and spacers service individually — no need to replace the entire assembly.
Polypropylene construction
Handles water, water-based coolants, soaps, detergents, and dilute acid/alkaline solutions. For solvents or stronger chemicals, see Acetal or Kynar PVDF variants.
10-715 Precision Nipple system
Nipple ordered separately in 1″ increments from 1″ to 70″. Sets the liquid level at which the switch actuates. One nipple per switch assembly.
RoHS compliant · Made in USA
Every Series 10 switch manufactured in Paradise, California. RoHS compliant throughout. No minimum order.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common Questions About This Product

What is the difference between a float level switch and a liquid level sensor?

A float level switch like the 10-403-PP is a point-level device: a float rides the liquid and actuates a magnetic reed switch at a set height, giving a simple on/off signal — no power, no firmware, no calibration. "Sensors" usually means continuous measurement (ultrasonic, radar, capacitive). ERECTA SWITCH targets reliable discrete-point control.

What are the typical applications for the 10-403-PP?

The 10-403-PP is used for pump start/stop control, high-level overflow protection, low-level dry-run protection, and tank or reservoir level alarms in OEM equipment. The modular ERECTA SWITCH system is built into laundry, HVAC, water-treatment, hydraulic, and chemical-handling machinery.

What liquid chemistries is the 10-403-PP compatible with?

Choose the material to match the media: Polypropylene (PP) for general aqueous, acids, and bases; Acetal (AC/Delrin) for solvents, fuels, and hydrocarbons; Kynar PVDF (KR) for aggressive or harsh chemicals. Every ERECTA SWITCH model is offered in all three materials.

Is the 10-403-PP a point-level or continuous-level device?

The 10-403-PP is point-level — it provides a discrete on/off signal at a set height. For multiple switch points, use a multi-level extended-stem set (2-, 3-, or 4-level) instead of a single continuous sensor.

What mounting options are available for the 10-403-PP?

ERECTA SWITCH offers vertical top-mount, bulkhead, and extended-stem configurations, plus side-mounted single-point models. The mount style is part of the model number — select the configuration that matches your tank geometry.

How is the actuation level set on the 10-403-PP, and how accurate is it?

Point detection is repeatable and mechanical. The trip height on the 10-403-PP is set by the 10-715 Precision Nipple, ordered separately in 1-inch increments (1″–70″), so you place the switch point exactly where the application needs it.
