Air operated switch

[NozSpark]

I've just had to order an air operated switch for a -ve head kit for a dual impeller shower pump,,, getting a Herga DP switch and button from RS and it ain't going to be cheap (

That was with next day delivery and vat,,, but apparently I can't get next day delivery in North Wales,,, WTF!!!

I have also ordered the DP switch just in case the pump needs both flow switches bypassed

 

[Andy™]

fitted this to a few different makes and only ever needed one reed switch bypasses

also with latching you need to press the button again to get it to turn off - if you use momentary, it switches off as normal

 

[NozSpark]

but i dont use latching switch. i use momentary with a positive head pump. wire the switch in parallel to the reed sensor in the pump

once it starts, it stays on. once shower is turned off and water stops flowing, the pump shuts down

Now there's an idea,,, ah well too late now as I've ordered the latching switch,, but next time

I'll tell you what though, phoning around the wholesalers today to get one (in a hurry) and they had no idea what I was going on about

 

[Andy™]

not something many sparks would use so wholesalers dont keep the stuff. ive had many blank looks at wholesalers when asking for various stuff.

for certain things, ive got more stock than the local wholesalers. and as for the air button.... im sure i have an air bellow, switch & tubing at my unit

 

[NozSpark]

I can understand that,,,

I also have some things knocking around that the wholesalers don't

 

[Sidewinder]

Same here.

If I have to order kit in for a customer breakdown I often order spares for my "stock" too.

 

[Andy™]

so im not the only one who orders 2 when they only need 1....
