Abstract
A float switch for providing a switching path for a high level electric current in response to a fluid level. A buoyant float housing includes a pair of conductors through the housing which are adapted to receive a potential difference. A high current solid state switching device in the housing provides a current path between the conductors inside the housing. The solid state switching device is mounted to a heat sink cup exposed through an opening in the float housing to the fluid level. A wide angle mercury switch is provided to trigger the solid state switching device in response to a change in the float housing orientation.
