PURPOSE: A sensing switch of fluid level is provided to stabilize the fluid level optimally, and to reduce the responsiveness in tilting the storage container by installing the fluid level sensing switch in the middle of the storage container. CONSTITUTION: A fluid level sensing switch(10) includes a base, a float(14) pivotally connected to the base, a counterweight(16) pivotally connected to the base, a linkage(18) connecting the float and the counterweight, a conductive damper, an electrical terminal and a conductive pin(24). The fluid level sensing switch is used for a device having a fluid reservoir. The switch is floated and activated in case of the volume of fluid in the reservoir to be below the predetermined level. A circuit is shut off to change the operating parameter. When the volume of fluid is restored to the predetermined safe level, the switch is opened by automatically resetting for normal operation of the device.
