If you currently have a 5 HP air compressor and the contacts on your pressure switch keep burning up, a starter is what is needed to fix the problem.

If you are using this starter on an air compressor, you will also need a pressure switch to control the starter. In this application the pressure switch controls when the starter turns on and off depending on the pressure setting of the pressure switch.

PROFESSIONAL INSTALLATION IS REQUIRED

Due to this being an electrical item, there is no warranty after installation.
