Description
Pump switches provide automatic pump control.
The SJE PumpMaster® pump switch is designed to directly control pumps up to 1/2 HP at 120 VAC and 1 HP at 230 VAC in water and sewage applications.
The SJE PumpMaster® pump switch is not sensitive to rotation or turbulence, allowing it to be used in both calm and turbulent applications.
Check out the new SJE PumpMaster® Quick Fit pump switch – the float and piggy-back plug are separate to allow for a quick fit installation.
