If you have a Bailey caravan with an onboard tank then you will likely have been frustrated at times with the process for filling the onboard tank. Particularly in terms of knowing when the onboard tank is full and then switching off the external pump to avoid wasting water. I suspect this may be the case on other Whale based onboard tank systems also.
In this short video I show how you can add a float switch to the onboard tank to automatically switch off power to the external pump once the tank is full.
The 3D model of the float valve can be downloaded here.- thingiverse.com/thing:5915262
This is the third step in upgrading my onboard system, you can watch these other videos to see how to.-
