This replacement component is an authentic OEM pressure switch that is designed for use with Campbell Hausfeld air compressors. The pressure switch tells your compressor when to stop and when to start building up the pressure in the tank. There are multiple reasons a pressure switch could be leaking air. If it is leaking air the pressure switch should be replaced for a compressor to operate properly and safely. Refer to the owners manual and the diagrams of your model for the correct installation of the new part. This high-quality pressure switch is sold as an individual component. To replace it you will need a screwdriver and a wrench set. Make sure to let the air out of the tank before beginning the repair.
