VertiMAC™ Pump Switch - USER GUIDE 

Discharge

VertiMAC™

Pump Switch

6.0” Pipe

Limited Space Dewatering

The diagram below is a typical setup for a dewatering application where a pump switch cannot operate due to limited space. 

The VertiMAC™ pump switch is mounted to the discharge pipe inside a six inch (6.0”) pipe placed in the ground. With the pump 

and discharge pipe inside the small size of the pipe, a typical pump switch would not have enough space to pivot and activate 

the pump. The VertiMAC™ pump switch and pump power cables are wired to terminal inputs in a junction box. The float is used 

to operate the pump switch, turning the pump on and off based on the pump differential for the desired pumping range.
