What Makes the 20-614 the Right Choice

Rain-tight low-profile receptacle
O-ring sealed housing with self-sealing cap screw. 1.75" housing height above the 2 NPT fitting. 360° rotatable 1/4 NPT conduit nipple.
WO / DO field-selectable mode
Wet Open (WO) or Dry Open (DO) switching action — set by float orientation on the stem. Single switch set covers fill, drain, alarm, and pump control applications.
Conduit routing flexibility
1/4 NPT conduit nipple rotates 360° for positioning flexibility in confined panel locations.
ERECTA SWITCH modular architecture
Every component is independently field-replaceable. Snap-and-screw modular design enables part-level replacement in minutes without factory return.
Kynar PVDF construction
Handles aggressive acids, halogens, oxidizers, and ultra-high-purity process fluids. Required for semiconductor, chemical processing, and harsh chemical environments.
RoHS compliant · Made in USA
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 20-614 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 20-614?

The 20-614 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 20-614 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 20-614 a point-level or continuous-level device?

The 20-614 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 20-614?

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 20-614, and how accurate is it?

Point detection is repeatable and mechanical. The trip height on the 20-614 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.
