Triton LR03
Triton Float Switch Counterweight for LR03 & LR06 LR03-W
- Established 1975
- Trusted by thousands of customers
The Triton LR03-W is the optional counterweight for Triton’s LR03 and LR06 paddle float switches. It fixes onto the float switch cable to hold the cable steady and set the point where the float pivots, so the switch operates at a consistent level.
Its polypropylene body makes it suitable for oils as well as water, so the same weight works with the LR06 diesel float switch. Made in the UK by Triton Controls.
More about this product
Triton LR03-W float switch counterweight
Paddle float switches such as the Triton LR03 and LR06 need their cable held in place so the float pivots at a fixed point. Without a weight or tether, the cable can drift and the switching level wanders.
The LR03-W fixes to the float switch cable at the level you choose. As the liquid rises, the float tilts up around that point and switches; as the level falls, it tilts down and switches back.

FAQs
Do I need the LR03-W?
The LR03 and LR06 must be tethered or weighted to operate correctly. The LR03-W is the simplest way to do it.
Does it fit the LR02?
The LR02 does not need it: its stabilising weight is built into the cable.
Can it go in diesel?
Yes. The polypropylene body is suitable for oils, so it pairs with the LR06 diesel float switch.
