Model H Installation Information
IMPORTANT
Please read these instructions carefully to assure
correct installation. This equipment must be
installed only by a licensed electrician who is
experienced with combustion safeguard control
systems and understands the functions of interlocking switches, such as gas pressure switches.
Prior to being put into operation in conjunction
with the combustion safeguard systems, all
switches should be tested for proper range setting
and proper wiring. Check piping connections and
switch house for leaks with a soap bubble test. All
exhaust fans and blowers should be inspected and
checked for proper rotation prior to starting up.
Model D Switches
You are installing one of the finest switches of its type on
the market. The Model H is adjustable within its range as
shown on the range scale located on the front of the unit.
The latch position in the reset models and the level indicator position in the recycle models shows whether the
switch is on or off.

Range Adjustment
To adjust gas pressure set point on either high or low
pressure units, remove the electrical junction box cover,
and adjust indicator up or down to desired setting, as
shown on the range scale on front of the switch. Use the
center of the range indicating tab as a guide for accurate
setting. Turn adjusting screw clockwise to lower the set
point and counterclockwise to raise the setting. To prevent
tampering with setting after adjustment, be sure to replace
the junction box cover firmly.

Model H Installation Information
Mounting
All gas pressure switches must be mounted in a
horizontal position, with the inlet stem down. Switches
should be reasonably level but do not require accurate
leveling.
Single gas switch models have a 1/4” NPT gas inlet.

Double combination Hi-Lo switches have a 3/8” NPT for
high pressure inlet and a 1/8” NPT for low pressure inlet.
Gas vent outlets are 1/8” NPT on all models.
Piping can be either standard black pipe or aluminum
tubing.
All switches can be supported by the inlet pipe, but
optional mounting brackets are available if needed.
All switches have been factory-calibrated and tested
for leaks. However, it is recommended that after the
installation is completed, switch, gas pipe inlets, and
connections be tested for leaks with a soap bubble test.

Operation
Low Gas Pressure: Low gas pressure switches break
the electrical circuit on pressure drop at the point when
gas pressure becomes lower than the indicated set
pressure.
Before the manual reset latch can be properly latched,
gas pressure in the chamber must be higher than the
indicated setting. The position of the reset latch on the top
cover of the switch shows whether reset latch is in the on
or off position. Reset latch must be in “on” position after
latching to be properly set.
