Whale Electric Field Sensor Switch

WHALE Electric Field Sensor Switch | Automatic Bilge Pump Control

Upgrade your marine bilge system with the state-of-the-art WHALE Electric Field Sensor Switch, a breakthrough in automated bilge pump control. Designed for the discerning boat owner who demands reliability and peace of mind, this switch replaces outdated mechanical float switches with advanced, intelligent technology. This innovative sealed, solid-state switch has no moving parts to wear out or seals to leak, completely eliminating the most common points of failure found in traditional bilge switches, such as jamming, sticking, or water intrusion.

The core of this device is its sophisticated field sensor technology. It senses bilge water levels and automatically controls the pump, activating it when water reaches 51 mm (2") and deactivating it once the level drops to 13 mm (1/2"). Unlike mercury or mechanical switches, the WHALE Electric Field Sensor is environmentally safe and incredibly precise. Its intelligent design can differentiate between water and other common bilge fluids like oil or fuel, preventing the accidental and illegal discharge of pollutants overboard. This ensures you remain compliant with environmental regulations while protecting our waterways.

Engineered to withstand the harsh marine environment, the switch is built for ultimate durability. All components are protected from exposure to solvents or corrosion, thanks to a completely sealed and waterproof electronic housing. This robust construction guarantees long-lasting, dependable performance even when submerged and exposed to bilge contaminants. A built-in 3-second time delay prevents false starts and rapid cycling caused by water sloshing in the bilge, preserving the life of your pump motor. Installation is straightforward with a low-profile design that fits into confined bilge spaces where traditional switches cannot.
