DESCRIPTIONAPPLICATIONS
• Natural, manufactured or LP gas applications
Large sensitive diaphragm and reliable, time proven mechanical design
are combined in Series PG Pressure/Differential Pressure Switches.
For use with air and other compatible gases, they feature excellent ±1% of
full scale repeatability, clear, easy-to-read scale and convenient external
set point adjustment. Application exibility is assured by a large variety of
switching options including SPST, SPDT, DPST, and DPDT; opening or
closing on increasing pressure, vacuum or differential. Mercury switches
or hermetically sealed snap switches are available where high humidity
would be a problem. If vibration or other factors preclude the use of
mercury, snap switched can be provided. Standard housing is NEMA 1.
Optional enclosures can be supplied for weather resistant and explosionproof requirements.
