Still Float Safety Switch | FMB / Union / Realstar 0315001
This still float safety switch, part 0315001, is used in the still/distillation level safety circuit on compatible FMB / Firbimatic, Union, and Realstar dry cleaning machines. The switch helps monitor the level condition in the still or distiller area and provides a safety/control signal so the machine can avoid unsafe still operation when the float signal or liquid level is not correct.
This still float safety switch, part 0315001, is used in the still/distillation level safety circuit on compatible FMB / Firbimatic, Union, and Realstar dry cleaning machines.
The switch helps monitor the level condition in the still or distiller area and provides a safety/control signal so the machine can avoid unsafe still operation when the float signal or liquid level is not correct.
Use this listing where the original machine record, installed component, and service manual match 0315001, old FMB / Firbimatic A5981, or C1400003. Before ordering, compare the installed switch, float/rod assembly, wiring, mounting, and manual table reference.
