Brasstech 1500-5811-15A Air Activated Disposer Switch

Product Description

The BRASSTECH 1500-5811-15A is an air activated disposer switch finished in Antique Nickel. Air activation replaces the traditional wall switch by using a countertop button and a small air pump to trigger the garbage disposal, keeping the electrical connection away from the sink area. The unit mounts through the countertop or sink deck and connects inline between the power supply and the disposal unit. Plumbers and kitchen installers use this type of switch as both a code-preferred and aesthetically clean alternative to standard electrical switches near a sink.

This switch is suited for residential kitchen applications where a countertop-mounted activation point is preferred. The Antique Nickel finish coordinates with period-style and transitional fixture packages. It is appropriate for new construction and remodel projects where the countertop has an available knockout or can be drilled for the button body.

Key Features

• Air activated operation keeps electrical components away from the wet sink area
• Antique Nickel finish for coordinated kitchen fixture aesthetics
• Countertop or sink deck mounting configuration
• Replaces traditional wall-mounted disposal switch in residential kitchens

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation air activated switch for residential garbage disposal systems requiring countertop-mounted activation.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a licensed plumber or experienced kitchen installer. Disconnect power to the garbage disposal at the breaker before beginning any work. A hole saw or step bit is required to drill the countertop knockout if one is not already present. Follow local plumbing and electrical codes regarding disposal switch placement and air tube routing.
