HOW TO USE:

• Wiring for Emptying (Pump Down/High Level Detection): Connect the black (common) and brown (normally open - NO) wires to your pump control circuit. Cap off the blue wire, ensuring it is properly insulated. The switch will activate the pump when the float rises to a high level.
• Wiring for Filling (Pump Up/Low Level Detection): Connect the black (common) and blue (normally closed - NC) wires to your pump control circuit. Cap off the brown wire, ensuring it is properly insulated. The switch will activate the pump when the float falls to a low level.
• Install the Float Switch: Position the float switch at the desired activation and deactivation levels within your tank or sump.
• Adjust the Tether (if applicable): Use the adjustable tether to set the desired range of water level fluctuation. A shorter tether will result in a smaller difference between the on and off levels, while a longer tether will create a larger difference.
• Secure the Cable: Ensure the 100-foot cable is securely routed and protected from damage.
• Optional Counterweight: Attach the optional counterweight to the cable at the desired point to further refine the activation and deactivation points.
• Connect to Power: Wire the switch to your pump and power source according to the chosen configuration (emptying or filling) and all applicable electrical codes.
• Test Operation: Carefully test the switch to ensure it activates and deactivates the pump at the intended water levels.
