SERIES 3000MR/3000MRS | PHOTOHELIC® SWITCH/GAGE
FEATURES/BENEFITS
• Gage reading unaffected by switch operation and will continue to read pressure
even during power loss
• Zero and range adjustments outside of gage means no disassembly in normal
service
• Solid state design allows for switching in high cycle rate applications without
degradation
• Optional stainless steel bezel is the same installation diameter as Magnehelic
gage and simplifies field upgrade to Photohelic® switch/gage
APPLICATIONS
• Pneumatic conveying
• Air conditioning systems
• Clean rooms

DESCRIPTION
Using solid state technology, the SERIES 3000MR & 3000 MRS Photohelic® Switches/Gages
combine the functions of a precise, highly repeatable differential pressure switch with a large
easy-to-read analog pressure gage employing the durable, time-proven Magnehelic
design. Switch setting is easy to adjust with large external knobs on the gage face. Gage reading
is unaffected by the switch operation will indicate accurately even if power is interrupted. Solid
state design now results in greatly reduced size and weight. Units can be flush mounted or
surface mounted with hardware supplied. 3000MR models employ versatile electromechanical
relays with gold over silver contacts – ideal for dry circuits. For applications requiring high cycle
rates, choose 3000MRS models with SPST (N.O.) solid state relays. All models provide both low
and high limit control and include 18-inch (45 cm) cable assemblies for electrical connections.
Compatible with air and other non-combustible, non-corrosive gases, they can be used in
systems with pressures to 25 psig (1.725 bar). Optional construction is available for use to
either 35 psig (2.42 bar) or 80 psig (5.51 bar).
