If you can fabricate a simple support or there is existing means of support, I would go with a float switch. Simple, tried, and true!

If you are looking for a chemical resistant float switch try this link: http://www.grainger.com/Grainger/wwg/search.shtml?searchQuery=chemical+resistant+float+switch&op=search&Ntt=chemical+resistant+float+switch&N=0&sst=subset
