Safety Overflow Switch (SOS™)
Safety Overflow Switch (SOS
™
) is designed for use on 3/4” PVC condensate drain line.
The SOS snaps easily over existing drain line tubing and can be glued in place using PVC
cement if desired. The SOS works by electronically sensing water near the inside wall of
the PVC drain tubing. By locating the SOS with its body away from the normal flow it can
be used to detect a possible overflow condition when the PVC drain line becomes full with
water. Like a culvert, condensate drain line is normally mostly empty with a small amount of
water flowing in the lower parts of the horizontal run. Since the sensor component of the
SOS only covers part of the tubing, a low volume of flowing water does not activate the
switch. The pipe must be full or near full to activate the switch. The SOS can be mounted
horizontally, vertically, or at any angle.
The SOS works with 24 VAC control circuits and typical contactors. When not detecting
water the SOS is normally closed and allows normal air conditioner operation. When water
approaches the SOS’s sensor the switch triggers and the control circuit is opened. The
LED indicator lights to show that there may be system trouble, and the SOS is doing its job.
Furnished complete with switch, 5’ (1.5 meter) 18 AWG, 2 wire lead, and a 3/4” PVC male
fitting adaptor for direct coupling to a primary pan drain line connection. Now available
with Push to Test button.
Condensate Cop™
Condensate Cop
™
is a unique clamp on float switch intended for HVAC drain pan
installation. The Condensate Cop™ features a large over clamping area that fits easily over
the edge of all types of drain pans; including formed plastic and galvanized sheet metal.
A separate float/probe assembly swivels to accommodate drain pans having sloped sides.
The swivel action allows the installer to position the float switch for best operation and then
clamp it into place. The probe features an inlet grill which prevents the float from being
blocked or damaged by insulation or other debris. Sealed inside the probe is a magneti-
cally actuated normally closed switch. The switch opens when rising water presents a
potential flooding condition.
Two wire connection for easy hook up to a thermostat “Y” (compressor) circuit. Provided
complete with 5’ (1.5 meter) leads, wire nuts, and clamping screws. Small size, 24V/1.5
amp NC reed switch.
