Low Pressure Switch (LPS) installs on the inlet side of the booster pump and will shut-off the pump if the feed water is interrupted. Switch remains closed at 5 PSI or more, when pressure drops below 5 PSI, Switch will open and cut-off the power to the pump.
A low-pressure switch is connected to the suction, or “low” side of the system to sense suction pressure. When the pressure in the system exceeds the high pressure switch setting, the switch will open circuit the compressor clutch and the compressor will stop circulating refrigerant.
