Easily convert a Little Giant manual pump to automatic operation using Little Giant's RS-5 diaphragm switch. This switch is activated when rising water around the switch housing applies pressure to a diaphragm, supplying power to the pump. A small footprint, this switch can be used in compact sump pits or basins. Reliable and versatile, this switch is self-contained with no moving parts and can be used for pumps with 115-volt option up to 1/2 horsepower and with a 230-volt option up to 1 horsepower.
