DESCRIPTION

Three factory set models are available for hydraulic pressures from 10 to 4700 psi. All are single pole double throw type (NEMA

4). Each comes complete with a sealed 3-wire cable that is ﬁve feet long.

OPERATION

When pressure exceeds the set point, the internal contacts transfer (N.O. closes and N.C. opens). This can be used to send an alarm signal to alert either a high, or low pressure condition. When the abnormal condition is corrected, the contacts return to their normal state.

ADJUSTMENT

The adjustment procedure for the high-pressure switch is as follows:

Disconnect and lock out all power from the assembly before • attempting adjustment. Serious injury may result from electrical shock.

To avoid possible system damage, change the blow out disc • or relief valve setting to match the new pressure switch setting.

Turn off electrical power to the lube system. a.

Connect switch to pressure source.b.

With power disconnected, slide adjustment “cover” c. toward cable while twisting it to overcome friction.

Connect continuity tester (VOM or light) to leads.d.

Insert screwdriver into adjustment slot and turn e. clockwise to increase setting or counter-clockwise to decrease setting. For setting on rise, apply desired pressure and turn adjustment (clockwise facing cable end of pressure switch) until switch clicks and/or tester conﬁrms contact transfer (Circuit across N.O. and COM. terminals closes). For setting on fall, apply pressure equal to normal system operating pressure. Reduce source pressure to set point value. Turn adjustment counterclockwise until switch clicks and/ or tester conﬁrms contact transfer (circuit across N.C. and COM. closes).

After completing adjustments, slide “cover” closed f. over adjustment compartment. Recheck set point.

WARNING

High-Low, Adjustable Pressure Switches

(Single and Dual)

DESCRIPTION

Three models for pressures up to 3,000 PSI (207 bars). UL listed single-pole, double-throw snap action swit ching elements with automatic reset by micro-switch snap-action. NEMA Type 3 weather-proof enclosures. Maximum electrical rating (continuous in ductive) is 10 amperes / 125 or 250 volts AC or 0.5 amp / 3O volts DC. Approximate weights are 2.5 lb. (1.1 kg.) for the singlecentral models and 3.0 lb. (1.4 kg.) for the dual-control models. Switch wire leads for the single-control models are 3 #18 AWG wires, each approx. 18” (45.7 cm) long; dual-control models have 6 #18 AWG wires each approx. 18” (45.7 cm) long.

OPERATION

When pressure exceeds the trip set ting, it forces the actuator piston against the micro-switch button, activating the switch. Switch remains closed/open until pressure is relieved and piston returns to its original position. Reset is automatic.

ADJUSTMENT

Remove the adjusting screw cover(s). Turn self-locking adjustment screw clockwise to reduce the pressure point or counter clockwise to increase it. (On the dual switch, there are two screws–one for each line. Each screw must be set to the pressure desired.) Replace and secure cover(s).
