Pressure switches are used in many different types of pumps. Pressure switches are needed in pumps where there is a high possibility of the pump failing if the pressure gets out of range. Repair costs can be very high with these type of pumps and you want to make sure it doesn't happen no matter what. The A.O. Smith 280299 Pressure Switch is a brand new replacement pressure switch that is designed to replace old worn out ones, or ones that have failed. This pressure switch features an adjustable pressure setting from 1 to 10 pounds per square inch (PSI) (0-69 Kg Per Square Centimeter)

Pressure switches are used to provide an indication of the water pressure or flow rate. Pressure switches are mechanically actuated electrical devices which, when actuating, indicate either a high or low pressure condition. The high/low pressure indication is an electrical signal that goes to a control system and alerts the operator of either a high or low pressure state

Don't let the price fool you, this is a quality pressure switch. The one I purchased lasted over 5-1/2 years. Also, for those wondering, this part sold by A.O. Smith includes the foam gasket and the rubber hose to connect it to the water pump assembly.
