Description:

The pressure differential alarm option continually monitors

and displays the strainer’s inlet and outlet differential

pressure . When the strainer element (conical strainer basket)

becomes significantly clogged, the pressure differential

switch-gauge will trigger an audible siren and a visual

flashing alarm light . These alarms are intended to alert

maintenance personnel that the strainer element must be

removed and cleaned (see page 18 for complete strainer

element cleaning instructions) .

Operation Instructions:

Remove the power supply and insert the connector end into

the socket on the bottom of the PDA housing, as indicated

in the drawing above . Plug the transformer into the power

source . Standard systems are supplied with a 120V power

supply to the primary of the transformer, with an output,

secondary of 12 VDC .

The pressure differential switch-gauge is factory set to

7-8 PSI . The ClimaCool Strainer operates at a pressure

differential slightly less than 1 PSI during maximum flow

when the strainer screen is clean . By the time this differential

pressure reaches 7-8 PSI, the strainer element will be

significantly clogged and require immediate removal and

cleaning .

To adjust the pressure differential switch-gauge setting, insert

a 1/16” allen wrench and rotate the differential set-point

contact to the desired location (see Fig . 1) .

Note: We do not recommend setting the differential

switch-gauge higher than 10 PSI. Disabling the alarm

or increasing the alarm set point could result in damage

to the strainer element and allow debris to pass into the

system.
