Installation
1. Back out cover tamper set screw and remove cover (Fig. 1).
2. Mounting the Switch

The device is designed to be mounted in the upright posi-
tion; side mounting is also acceptable. Locate it where
vibration, shock, and mechanical loading are minimal.
Refer to piping diagram above (Figures 2 and 3).
a. Mount the device directly to the line via the 1/2″ NPT

pressure connection. The use of teflon pipe sealant
tape is recommended. Be sure the fitting is tight
enough to prevent leaks.

b. Apply tightening torque to the brass hex portion of

the device.

High voltage. Electrocution hazard. Do not handle live AC
wiring or work on a device to which AC power is applied.
Doing so may result in severe injury or death.

3. Wire the device in accordance with the National

Electrical Code. Two 1/2″ NPT conduit entry holes have
been provided in the mounting base to accept explosion
proof conduit fittings. If necessary, remove conduit entry
plug with 3/8” square wrench.

4. Connect wiring to terminals (see Figure 4 and Table 1).
