Innovative Components manufactures stainless steel float switches, bilge level sensors, and multi-level level monitoring configurations for commercial marine OEM manufacturers, vessel builders, and offshore platform operators. Our marine-suited sensors are constructed from 316 stainless steel with rugged, pressure-rated designs — the SM-1000-SS, for example, is rated for 500 PSI operating pressure and -40°F to 300°F temperature range, making it compatible with the harsh conditions typical of commercial marine environments.
Standard NPT-threaded configurations are available across our marine-suitable product line. No minimum order is required for standard products, and custom OEM configurations including custom stem lengths, multi-level switch points, and application-specific wiring are available for boat builders and commercial marine OEM manufacturers integrating level sensing into new vessel designs.
For commercial vessel builders and offshore equipment manufacturers, reliable level sensing supports compliance with maritime regulations governing critical fluid systems: MARPOL Annex I governs oily bilge water discharge, MARPOL Annex IV governs sewage discharge and holding tanks, and SOLAS Chapter II-1 requires bilge water level alarms in machinery spaces.
