Telemecanique Sensors FSG2J24CP 40-60 PSI Pumptrol Water Pressure Switch, Grey Cover

Easy install, works fine.

This pressure switch installed well and checking pressure settings , it was truly 60 psi off and 40 psi on.Factory preset was right on the money. Good quality made in Mexico. Would buy again.This switch replaced a new Merrill unit (Chinese) which I had just purchased and was junk - could not adjustand returned to vendor.

There are so many cheaper versions out there and just like most of us, I'm always looking for a deal. I got the cheaper ones and they are junk! This one and Named Brand is really the only one you are gonna want. Besides it's what the pros use for a much better price!

I have always used square D pressure switches. This seems to be the replacement.I bought this as a spare to have on hand.

I replaced an existing switch that had been original to my parent's house (20+ years). It was still working but getting unreliable mostly because it was short cycling due to pressure tank bladder failing (also original to the house). I ordered this 40/60 unit as a guess b/c the labeling and model number on the old one was essentially gone. I installed the new unit and appeared to work fine. First time I've worked on well components. As a suggestion to anybody doing this, check your pressure tank and the pressure gauge (I replaced that too) to ensure the cut in/out pressures are correct and everything else is working properly.I have noticed that since installing it, the contacts already have some wear on them.The one minor issue is the instruction don't indicate what factory settings are for cut in/out pressures. I can only assume that they're are 40/60 for this unit. The cut out seemed to be slightly higher than 60.

I installed this one to replace my 18-year old switch that was intermittently failing, resulting in no water and no pressure in my well tank. I suspect due to fouled contacts. It took quite a bit of torque to remove the predecessor, and I had to be very careful not to break it off and/or damage the piping. I also had to use a propane torch to get it to budge. Once off, the new one was put in easily with pipe thread tape. No leaks for the past several months. The instructions are a bit tricky to understand how to properly set the turn-off and cut-in pressures. I would not recommend installing this yourself unless you're comfortable with mechanical/electrical stuff.

Worked as advertised.

I live in a solar powered off-grid cabin that I'm building out. My water pump runs from my 24Volt DC battery bank. Unfortunately, the pressure switch built into the pump head failed in less than a year. Reading reviews, it seems that is a common problem with the pump. I made the decision to purchase this Square D by Schneider Electric FSG2J24CP 40-60 PSI Pumptrol Water Pressure Switch as a more reliable solution at the recommendation of an electrician friend of mine.I had to plumb a tap from the output of the pump, to which I added the Square D pressure switch and a pressure gauge. I must say that the pump now starts and stops noticeably more cleanly so it had became clear that the old pressure switch was gradually failing.The contacts in this Square D pressure switch are rated 20 Amps. My pump motor draws a little over eight amps. I expect the new pressure switch will last for many years (as my electrician friend says it will).Before you notice that my installation is not NEC compliant without conduit running from the pressure switch into what will be the future wall, this is an emergency wiring to have water in the cabin. The conduit is on order and will arrive in a few days :-) Good catch!
