sump pump delay switch

my sump pump is in an earthen pit and ground water seeps in causing
the electronic float switch to cycle on and off about every 90
seconds. I am looking for a delay off switch that would delay the
pump from turning off for 10 or 15 seconds so that the of-off cycling
would be greatly reduced. Cannot find such a 'delay' switch /
electrical plug. Any ideas?

The come in many flavors. Some have "stops" that can be moved. My
current one has a screw adjustment as it uses a pressure switch rather than
a float switch.
I wonder if you might profit from finding out why you have so much water
needing to be pumped. Maybe you need the grade around your home adjusted.
