ABSTRACT:
A new pump shut off system for shutting off a pump when there is insufficient fluid to pump through the pump. The inventive device includes a pump with a primary switch for selectively activating and deactivating the pump. A processor is electrically connected to the primary switch. The processor has a timer for measuring a predetermined amount of time. The processor deactivates the pump after the timer measures the predetermined amount of time. The processor also has a flow switch with a flow sensor in an outlet conduit of the pump. The flow switch deactivates the timer to prevent the timer from measuring the predetermined amount of time when the flow switch is activated by the flow sensor when the flow sensor detects fluid flow through the outlet conduit above the predetermined amount during the predetermined amount of time.
