A float switch fitted in the tank turns the pump on and off as the water level rises and falls, and the pump runs from the console battery.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSapphire Scientific part number \u003cstrong\u003e68-158S\u003c\/strong\u003e, supplied as Legend Brands kit \u003cstrong\u003e124982\u003c\/strong\u003e (\u003cem\u003eKit, Waste Pump Out\u003c\/em\u003e).
