PC-SK2 - GW female pressure switch
PC-SK2 by IBO is a mechanical pressure switch for controlling the operation of a single-phase pump. It turns on the pump when the pressure in the installation drops to the set value, and turns it off when the upper threshold is reached. The operating thresholds are set by the user using two screws, a Connection ¼" available with internal and external thread allows you to connect the device to the installation in two ways.
For whom
- Installers and plumbers - ¼" thread in internal and external versions gives freedom when connecting the switch to an existing pipeline.
- Home owners with their own water intake - the switch maintains the pressure in the set range, automating the operation of the pump.
- Users of hydrophore sets - the device controls the pump cooperating with the hydrophore tank.
- Allotment owners and farms - a durable solution for everyday operation of the pump when drawing water.
Application
PC-SK2 works well in home and garden water installations with a single-phase pump operating with a hydrophore tank. The switch maintains the water pressure between the set lower and upper thresholds and controls the pump as water is consumed. Works with surface and submersible pumps.
The device responds to the pressure in the pipeline to which it is connected. In a home hydrophore network, the PC-SK2 230 V pressure switch maintains the pump operation in the set pressure range, adapted to the needs of the installation.
Features of the PC-SK2 switch
PC-SK2 works on two settings - the pump's switch-on pressure and the pump's switch-off pressure. By default, they are set to 1.4 and 2.8 bar, and both values are changed with two screws: screw A is responsible for the switch-on threshold, screw B is for the switch-off threshold. The adjustment range is from 1.2 to 5 bar, with a minimum switch-on pressure of 1.2 bar. The difference between the thresholds should be at least 1 bar so that the pump does not cycle too often.
The feature that makes the PC-SK2 stand out is Connection ¼" made both as internal and external thread. This allows you to connect the switch directly to various elements of the installation, without additional adapters. The device supports single-phase pumps with a current consumption of up to 12 A, which is also more powerful than those cooperating with basic pressure switches. The housing made of durable plastic protects the mechanism in the conditions of a typical water installation.

Frequently asked questions (FAQ) – PC-SK2 circuit breaker
What is the PC-SK2 pressure switch used for?
PC-SK2 is a mechanical pressure switch that automatically turns the pump on and off depending on the water pressure in the installation. It maintains the pressure between the set lower and upper threshold, thanks to which the pump operates without manual control.
What stands out Connection in PC-SK2?
PC-SK2 does Connection ¼" made with both internal and external threads. This allows you to connect the switch directly to various elements of the installation, without using additional connectors or adapters. The connection should be tight to avoid device failure.
How to set the working pressure in PC-SK2?
The frets are adjusted with two screws. Screw A sets the cut-in pressure and screw B sets the cut-out pressure. Clockwise rotation increases the pressure, counterclockwise rotation decreases it. The difference between the thresholds should not be less than 1 bar.
What pumps does PC-SK2 work with?
The switch supports single-phase pumps with current consumption up to 12 A, with a 230 V power supply. It works with surface and deep-well pumps in hydrophore networks equipped with a tank.
Does PC-SK2 require a hydrophore tank?
Yes. PC-SK2 is designed to work in hydrophore networks with a tank. The tank collects water under pressure and limits the frequency of switching on the pump between the lower and upper threshold.
Where to buy the PC-SK2 switch?
As a manufacturer, we do not sell directly. The IBO PC-SK2 switch can be purchased from our trading partners, installation wholesalers and authorized online distributors. The full range of switches and controllers can be found in the category drivers.
What is the warranty for the PC-SK2 circuit breaker?
IBO – 24 months (2 years) manufacturer's warranty.
