Key Features
- OEM Electrical Specification: — Sourced directly from Multiquip, this contact block meets the precise current-carrying and switching ratings specified for the original circuit — no guesswork on compatibility.
- Drop-In Installation: — Matches the original mounting footprint and terminal configuration, so it seats and connects exactly as the factory-installed unit did.
- Confirmed Fitment: — Verified for use with Multiquip ST-45HRM and ST-70 submersible pump models.
- Consistent Switching Performance: — A properly functioning contact block maintains clean electrical continuity across the control circuit, supporting reliable pump start and stop operation.
- Electrical Safety: — In a submersible pump application, a degraded or failed contact block can cause erratic switching, overheating, or control circuit failure — an OEM replacement restores the designed safety margin.
A contact block is the electrical switching element within a control or starter assembly that physically makes and breaks the circuit when a button or switch is actuated. In a submersible pump, it forms part of the control interface that governs when the pump motor receives power. When a contact block wears, corrodes, or fails, it can cause the pump to stop responding to controls, switch erratically, or fail to start altogether — disrupting dewatering or transfer operations and potentially damaging connected electrical components.
