Johnson Controls F263MAP-V01C Float Switch

The Johnson Controls F263MAP-V01C Float Switch is a heavy-duty liquid level control designed specifically for maintaining fluid levels in closed tanks. Engineered as a direct replacement for the F63FF-1, this unit features a single-pole double-throw (SPDT) action and a robust polycarbonate float. The 1-inch NPT connection ensures a secure fit in standard HVACR and industrial media vessels. With its NEMA 3R (Type 4) enclosure, it provides exceptional resistance against moisture and environmental exposure, making it ideal for both indoor and outdoor installations. Designed for non-hazardous liquids, this mechanical float switch supports line voltages from 120V to 240V and can handle pressures up to 150 psig. The integrated Viton diaphragm allows for reliable operation in lines carrying chlorinated or treated water, maintaining a differential of approximately 1/2 inch for precise tank level monitoring.

• Direct Compatibility: Seamlessly replaces the legacy Johnson Controls F63FF-1 without requiring extensive mechanical adjustments.
• Environmental Durability: The NEMA 3R rated housing prevents internal condensation and protects the SPDT switch assembly in outdoor conditions.
• High Pressure Rating: Rated for systems up to 150 psig, providing a wider operating range than standard copper-float alternatives.
• Corrosion Resistance: The solid polycarbonate float is specifically selected for longevity in non-corrosive liquids and treated water systems.
• Versatile Mounting: Features a 1" 11-1/2 NPT conduit and pipe connector for standardized plumbing and electrical integration.

Can this switch be used with liquids lighter than water?
No, the float is calibrated for water or liquids with a similar density; it will not function reliably in lighter-than-water fluids like oils or fuels.

What is the maximum fluid temperature for the polycarbonate float?
This specific F263MAP-V01C model is rated for fluid temperatures ranging from -20°F up to 212°F (-29°C to 100°C), provided the liquid remains above its freezing point.

Is this switch suitable for hazardous environments?
No, this unit is intended for non-hazardous liquids in non-classified areas only. For explosive or hazardous atmospheres, an intrinsically safe or explosion-proof rated switch is required.
