ABSTRACT:
An automatic pump control for a pump such as a marine vessel bilge pump uses solid state components and has no moving parts. A first integrated logic device activates an FET transistor and completes a circuit which turns the pump on when the water reaches a predetermined high level and in association with an interconnected second integrated logic device keeps the pump on until the water subsequently reaches a predetermined low level. The control can be manually operated and includes circuitry to activate a high water alarm. The switch housing is molded in a manner which permits mounting directly to the pump.
