Hello! Thank you for reaching out! Utilizing a pressure switch will tell the pump when to stop running. In the case of a G3 pump, if the pump keeps running after reaching pressure then the excess grease is returned to the pump reservoir through the Pressure Relief Valve (PRV). The PRV is designed to be a safety relief, not for regular use. By frequently sending grease through the PRV, it will wear out the valve and then the valve will allow a constant bypass. At that point, the system will no longer be able to build pressure and the injectors will stop functioning.

Very good Jack !!
Excellent Jack!
Nice vid, in what circs would you want to use a pressure switch rather than just letting the pump run on a timed basis?

Good presentation.
Please I want clarification on the G3 not good for off road machines but rather factory machines.
Thank you
Hello Benjamin! The G3 is suitable for both but would require different installation methods to be effective.
Okay.
Please can you kindly take me through that method of installation?
Thank you.
