One is the calibration cycle, the other is a timed cycle. Calibration cycles are run when the unit first powers up, and after every 50 cycles. During a calibration cycle the switch monitors the motor current while the pump is running and looks for the drop in current which will come when the pump transitions from pumping water to drawing in some air. The drop in current indicates that the pit is empty and switch turns the pump off. During a calibration cycle, the switch times how long it takes to empty the pit, and for the next 50 cycles it will run time based cycle that is 75% of the time it took to empty the pit. This keeps the pump primed and the seals wet. **Q: Will this switch work with an underfloor type sump system? The effluent level only can rise to a maximum of about 5 inches at pump start, and drops only to about 2 inches at shutdown** A: Hi Bill,The HC5000 needs a minimum runtime of about 5 seconds to work correctly. If you pump takes longer than the 5 seconds from starting to pump water to starting to draw in air, it should work fine. If you application is not for sewage/toilet waste, then I would recommend our HC6000 which does not have any run time limitations. Please let me know if you have any other questions I can answer for you. Thanks. **Q: Does this come with the rubber grommet for installation?** A: Yes, every HC5000T Sewage Switch is shipped with the grommet indicated in the instructions. **Q: How long is the cable?** A: The standard cable length is 12 feet. We can customize the length up to 50 feet. Thank you for your interest in our Model HC5000 Sewage Pump Switch. Kind regards, HydroCheck . ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Quick and easy *by B***Y on December 17, 2024* Switch worked as described. Sensor installation was quick and easy. Set the sensor height and plugged in the pump. Reprogrammed the switch per the included directions and all set to go. Thanks for saving my time! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ No need to open the tank *by J***R on April 16, 2024* Sewage pump started running constantly after a power failure. I unplugged it, dreading having to open the tank and replace the float switch. Then I found this electronic switch that does not require opening the tank. It is twice as expensive as a normal float switch. BUT, since I don't have to open the tank it's well worth the extra dollars.I had to purchase a 5/8" drill bit to drill a hole in the tank cover. I selected a location that seemed to be away from the pipes and wires that go down into the tank. Then I drilled a 1/8 " hole and pushed a straightened coat hanger wire down into the tank to get an idea how deep the tank was. I measured about halfway down the tank and pulled that much wire through the supplied grommet. I then drilled the 5/8 hole and placed the sensor into the hole and tested it. Worked perfectly the first time. Then I secured the wire to a pipe with the supplied wire tire. I put some silicone around the grommet and wire for extra sealing. Done - 15 minutes... no opening the tank! I adjusted the pump-off timer to 6 seconds and tested it a few more times.It's been working perfectly for 2 days. Hopefully, I will not need to touch this again. If it lasts a few years, it will be easy to replace.From my experience, a good sewage pump rarely fails. It's the float switch that fails. So, if this is reliable, I may never need to open that tank again. I will update this post later if it fails or not.60-day update: The switch has been installed and in use for 60 days now. It is working flawlessly. We have had one power outage that lasted about 3 hours. Once the power returned, the switch continued to work as before without any attention. I am extremely happy with this purchase.120-day update: Still working perfectly. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Seems to work perfectly, but time will tell *by C***S on March 16, 2014* I bought this for a sewage basin and pump in my basement. The basin is located under carpeted flooring in a closet. When the switch goes bad, I have to empty the closet, pull up the carpet and flooring, remove the waste pipe and pull the pump. It's obviously something that I don't enjoy doing. Of course there are times when the switch, for whatever reason, doesn't start the pump and the toilet won't flush correctly. Then I would have to shake the waste pipe until the switch frees up and the pump would start working. Whether replacing the switch or worrying about it not functioning, the whole sewage pump situation was a pain. I was thrilled when I saw this on Amazon and I installed it as soon as I got it. Installation was fairly easy, I still had to pull the pump so I could lock the float switch into a constant run position and install the probe. After a few tries I was able to position the probe at a height that I was satisfied with. Since then the HC5000 has controlled the pump flawlessly, and I couldn't be happier with it. Of course now the question is how long will it last? By all rights I should never have to replace the switch again, but if I do I'll have to pull the carpet and flooring up to get to the probe. It would have been nice if the probe and wire could be plugged into the controller unit for easier replacement but it's still better than a complete switch replacement. I'll give an update if it stops working, but right now I'm very optimistic that this is just the thing to end by sewage pump problems. ## Frequently Bought Together - HC5000T Electronic Sewage Pump Switch, 12ft Cord - No Pit Entry, Smart Alarm System Water Sensor for Sump Pump - Compatible with All Pumps & Pit Sizes - Prevents Flooding in Basements, Lift Stations - HydroCheck Water Sensor Alarm, Smart Water Leak Detector for Home & Basements | Made in The USA | Automatic Flood Detectors and Water Alarm, Pure Water Capable (WaterWatcher) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.pl/products/14105119-hc5000t-electronic-sewage-pump-switch-12ft-cord-no-pit-entry](https://www.desertcart.pl/products/14105119-hc5000t-electronic-sewage-pump-switch-12ft-cord-no-pit-entry) --- *Product available on Desertcart Poland* *Store origin: PL* *Last updated: 2026-05-12*
