  • 2 The tank level rises: The lower level switch closes the contacts but the contactor coil keeps not energized until the upper level switch be reached, then the contactor remains energized by the contacts 13/14, turning the pump on.
  • 3 Filled up tank: When the upper level switch opens the contactor coil, it keeps energized by the contacts 13/14 and turning the pump on. When the level get the lower level switch it will open the contact, turning the pump off.
