It is the policy of OMEGA to comply with all worldwide safety and EMC/EMI regulations that apply. OMEGA is constantly pursuing certification of its products to the European New Approach Directives. OMEGA will add the CE mark to every appropriate device upon certification.
The information contained in this document is believed to be correct, but OMEGA Engineering, Inc. accepts no liability for any errors it contains, and reserves the right to alter specifications without notice. WARNING: These products are not designed for use in, and should not be used for, patient-connected applications.
GENERAL
Pressure variations are sensed by a bellows, diaphragm or piston sensor which either actuates or de-actuates one, two or three snap­acting switches at a pre-determined set point(s). Set point(s) is adjusted by turning an internal knob and pointer or internal screw
Tools Needed
Screwdriver
Hammer
Adjustable wrench
MOUNTING
INSTALL UNIT WHERE SHOCK, VIBRATION AND TEMPERATURE FLUCTUATIONS ARE MINIMAL.
ORIENT UNIT SO THAT MOISTURE IS PREVENTED FROM ENTERING THE ENCLOSURE. IF UNIT IS BEING INSTALLED WHERE HEAVY CONDENSATION IS EXPECTED, VERTICAL MOUNTING (PRESSURE CONNECTION DOWN) IS REQUIRED. DO NOT MOUNT UNIT IN AMBIENT TEMPERATURES EXCEEDING PUBLISHED LIMITS.
PSW-850 Series pressure controls can be mounted in any position, provided the electrical conduit is not facing up. The preferred mounting position is vertical (pressure connection down).
The cast-in knockouts for 3/4” electrical conduit are located on the side and rear of the enclosure. These can easily be knocked out by placing the blade of a screwdriver in the groove and rapping sharply with a hammer.
Mount the unit via the (2) 1/4” screw clearance holes on the enclo­sure. See Dimensions. Units may also be mounted via the NPT pressure connection.
ALWAYS HOLD A WRENCH ON THE PRESSURE HOUS­ING HEX WHEN MOUNTING UNIT. DO NOT TIGHTEN BY TURNING ENCLOSURE. THIS WILL DAMAGE SENSOR
AND WEAKEN SOLDER OR WELDED JOINTS.
Please read all instructional literature carefully and thoroughly before starting.

Part I - Installation
WIRING
DISCONNECT ALL SUPPLY CIRCUITS BEFORE WIRING.
ELECTRICAL RATINGS STATED IN LITERATURE AND ON NAMEPLATE SHOULD NEVER BE EXCEEDED. OVER-LOAD ON A SWITCH CAN CAUSE FAILURE ON THE FIRST
CYCLE.
WIRE UNITS ACCORDING TO LOCAL AND NATIONAL ELECTRICAL CODES. MAXIMUM RECOMMENDED WIRE SIZE IS 14 AWG.
Connect conduit to the case and wire directly to the switch terminals according to local and national electrical codes. Bring the wires up to terminals from the rear of the case. (See fig. 1.) If manual reset switch or DPDT options are used, lead wires are supplied, color coded as follows:
ALLOW ENOUGH SLACK SO AS NOT TO AFFECT SWITCH MOVEMENT WHEN MAKING SETTING ADJUSTMENTS AND ENSURE THAT THE WIRES ARE NOT TOUCHING THE
COVER WHEN INSTALLED.
NOTE: For larger wire gauges, a one time shift may be experienced or expected due to space limitations within the enclo­sure. Verify setpoint after installation.
NOTE: The middle switch assembly is omitted for dual switch con­trollers. The outer switch assemblies are omitted for single switch controllers. Type PSW-852, 853 controls have internal screw adjust­ments and type PSW-855, 856 have cam assemblies for internal cali­brated adjustments.

Special Instructions For Vacuum Ranges
On vacuum ranges, the C-NO circuit is closed at sea level conditions. Therefore, increasing vacuum will cause the C­NC circuit to close while decreasing vacuum will cause the C-NO circuit to close. Please make a note of this and wire/adjust the unit accordingly.
Tools Needed
Screwdriver
NOTE: For set point adjustments and re-calibration, con­nect control to a calibrated pressure gauge.
PSW-852, PSW-853
Remove cover, follow same procedure as paragraph above. Switches may be set together or apart, up to 100% of range scales (maximum separation on models PSW-852A* is defined in Table 1). On dual switch, either switch may be set high. On triple switch models, the third (middle) switch has no over-travel mechanism and must always be set to the highest pressure when switches are set apart. Altering the setting of one switch will usually have little effect on the other(s), however re-calibration may be desired at a critical pressure setting and after changing switch(es) or sensor.
Table 1
Special Instructions for Models PSW-852A*
When calibrating the Models PSW-852A*, Switch 2 (the right switch as viewed from the front of the control) must be set to the lower pressure value. Use a screwdriver to turn the adjustment screw and obtain the desired actuation pressure for Switch 2. Switch 1 can then be set following the proce­dure outlined above for other products. Maximum separa­tion between Switch 1 and 2 is defined in Table 1.
PSW-855, 856
Controls are factory calibrated for maximum accuracy at the dial midpoint. Switches may be set together or apart up to 100% of the range scale. On dual switch models either switch may be set high. On triple switch models, the third (middle) switch has no over-travel mechanism and must always be set to the highest pressure when the switches are set apart. Altering the setting of one switch will usually have little effect on the other(s), however re-calibration may be desired at a critical setting or after changing switch(es) or sen­sor.
To re-calibrate, turn pointer to desired set point and add gauge pressure until switch transfers. If gauge pressure and set point pressure do not agree, turn zero adjust screw clockwise to raise. Counter-clockwise to lower setting.
Tools Needed
Screwdriver
USE ONLY FACTORY AUTHORIZED REPLACEMENT PARTS AND PROCEDURES. DISCONNECT ALL LIVE CIRCUITS BEFORE PROCEEDING. COMPONENTS AVAILABLE FOR REPLACEMENT ARE THE SWITCHES. OTHER COMPONENTS FACTORY REPLACEABLE ONLY.
REPLACEMENT OF SWITCH(ES)
1) Disconnect leadwires.
2) Remove the two mounting screws. On multi-switch controls, first remove switch bias springs (See Figure 1.)
3) Insert replacement switch and replace screws and bias springs.
4) Check switch set point and re-calibrate per PART II if necessary.
