Abstract
A fluid pump having a motor operably coupled to a pump assembly, the motor and pump assembly acting cooperatively to pressurize a fluid includes a pressure switch being in communication with the fluid under pressure and being in communication with the motor for sensing the fluid pressure and controlling the operation of the motor to maintain a selected fluid pressure. A method of controlling fluid pressure in a fluid pump, the fluid pressure being generated by activating a pump motor to operate a pump assembly.
