Quick Overview
Details on the Safety Overflow Switch Accessories
Designed for use on 3/4in. PVC condensate drain line. Snaps easily over existing drain line tubing and can be glued in place using PVC cement. The SOS electronically senses 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, the 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. Mount SOS horizontally, vertically, or at any angle. 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. Includes press to test switch. Furnished complete with switch, 5’ (1.5 meter) 18 AWG, 2 wire lead, and a 3/4in. PVC male fitting adapter for direct coupling to a primary pan drain line connection.

Bane and the crew from Casacade Energy Services did an excellent, professional installation of our new Trane furnace (nice and quiet!), along with a house surge protector and earthquake cutoff mechanism for our gas line. Bill was courteous, knowledgeable and very helpful. Also, his office staff helped us through all the warranty work and helped answer questions about rebates. We couldn't ask for a better experience. We will be using them for the annual furnace check up. Thanks, Bill and crew!
