Ashland Water Group PS4060 Pressure Switch 20/40 Psi

Product Description

The ASHLAND WATER GROUP PS4060 is a 20/40 PSI pressure switch designed for automatic operation of jet and submersible well pumps. It monitors system pressure and signals the pump to start at 20 psi and stop at 40 psi, maintaining consistent water pressure throughout the system. The switch is intended for use with diaphragm pressure tanks or galvanized pressure tanks in residential and light commercial water supply systems. Licensed plumbers and well pump service technicians are the typical installers for this type of control component.

The PS4060 is suited for residential well water systems where reliable automatic pump cycling is required. It works in tandem with a pressure tank to reduce pump short-cycling and maintain steady delivery pressure. Typical installations include private well systems serving single-family homes, small multi-unit buildings, or agricultural water supply setups that rely on jet pump or submersible pump configurations paired with a diaphragm or galvanized storage tank.

Key Features

• 20 psi cut-in and 40 psi cut-out settings for automatic pump control
• Compatible with both jet pump and submersible well pump installations
• Designed for use with diaphragm pressure tanks and galvanized pressure tanks
• Enables automatic start/stop operation to protect pump from continuous run conditions
• Compact form factor suitable for standard well system plumbing configurations

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement pressure switch for residential and light commercial jet pump and submersible well pump systems used in conjunction with a diaphragm pressure tank or galvanized tank.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or qualified well pump technician in accordance with local plumbing codes and IPC guidelines. Before servicing or replacing a pressure switch, shut off electrical power to the pump circuit at the breaker panel and relieve system pressure at the tank before disconnecting any fittings. Standard pipe thread sealant tape should be applied to threaded connections to prevent leaks. Do not energize the switch until all plumbing connections are secure and the system has been inspected for leaks.
