This is ...the second one of this exact same model that I have bought through eBay. The first I bought 2 years ago when our small Silver 240v single phase tank pump started acting erratically. I had to turn the electricity off then on to get it to start. Its pressure controller had failed so I fitted one of these. It was so easy and the pump has been working perfectly since. An equivalent new pump would have been $300+! This one I fitted to my mother-in-law's tank pump which wouldn't pump at all. Again, it was easy (<2hrs) including reconnecting the wires). The wiring diagram is pathetic. Power in is OK. V1 for live, N for neutral and O centred on the line for the wire for earth. Out to the pump was harder. O on the wire line for earth, then U and V on the other two. What the f#@*! I put the live on U (return on V) and it worked though the other way round might have been OK. Who knows!

These pressure switches are good value for money - don’...t assume they’ll last forever (depending on level of usage a year seems normal) but given the low price that’s reasonable. There’s no guarantee the more expensive ones are any better.

My previous identical unit lasted about 3-4 yea...rs . It appears to rely on a reed switch which either failed or the electronics failed. The unit was still watertight and the diaphragm OK. It was great to be able to find an identical unit so no mods had to be made to the pump or mounting. While the unit failed in only a reasonable time it is reasonably priced and there is really no other viable option.

I'm really impressed by the quality of these ...items for the price. Once connected to the pump and discharge pipe it work no problem. How they make them for the price beats me.
