INSTALLATION
1. Location:
Select a location where the temperature limits of -30 to 180°F (-35 to
82°C). For standard units and -4 to 146°F (-20 to 63.6°C) for ATEX and IECEx units
will not be exceeded. Locate the switch as close as possible to the pressure source
for best response. Long lengths of piping will not affect the accuracy of the
actuation point but will increase response time.

2. Mounting: Avoid mounting surfaces with excess vibration which could cause
false actuation when pressure is near setpoint. Attach switch with two 3/16” screws
or bolts (not included) through mounting bracket. The switch must be mounted
within 20° of vertical for proper operation.

3. Pressure Connection: The pressure connection is standard 1/4˝ or 1/2˝ female
NPT. Pipe joint sealing material should be used to insure a pressure tight joint.

4. Electrical Connections: One or two SPDT snap switches are provided, each
with normally open contacts closing and normally closed contacts opening when
pressure increases beyond the high setpoint. The contacts reverse, returning to
their “normal” condition when pressure decreases below the low setpoint. Wire in
accordance with local electrical codes.

For convenience, two ground screws are provided. One is located inside the
housing and the other on the exterior, adjacent to the 3/4˝ NPT conduit connection.
Internal grounding terminal must be used for equipment grounding and the external
terminal is for a supplementary bonding connection where local codes or
authorities permit or requires such connection. Replace cover after wiring
connections are complete.

ATEX and IECEx INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Cable Connection
The cable entry device shall be an Ex d certified cable gland suitable for conditions
of use and correctly installed. For Tamb 63.6°C, cable gland rated ≥ 80°C shall be
used. Use cable rated 30°C higher than maximum Tamb.

Conduit Connection
An Ex d certified seal device such as a conduit seal with setting compound suitable
for conditions of use and correctly installed shall be provided immediately to the
entrance of the electrical housing. For Tamb 63.6°C, conduit seal and setting
compound rated ≥ 80°C shall be used. Use cable rated 30°C higher than maximum
Tamb.

All wiring, conduit and enclosures must meet applicable codes for hazardous
areas. Conduits and enclosures must be properly sealed. For outdoor or other
locations where temperatures vary widely, precautions should be taken to prevent
condensation inside switch or enclosure. Electrical components must be kept dry
at all times.

For units supplied with both internal ground and external bonding terminals, the
ground screw inside the housing must be used to ground the control. The external
bonding screw is for supplementary bonding
when allowed or allowed by local code. When external bonding conductor is
required, conductor must be wrapped a minimum of 180° about the external
bonding screw.

Refer to Certificate No. IECEx 11.0095 X for conditions of safe use for IECEx
compliant units.

ADJUSTMENT
1. Determine the low and high setpoint pressures.

2. Connect tubing or piping from the pressure port on bottom to one leg of tee.
Connect the second leg to a pressure gage of known accuracy and in an
appropriate range. The third leg should be connected to a controllable source of
pressure.

3. Connect a volt/ohm meter or other circuit tester to the snap switch terminals to
indicate when switching occurs.

4. Slowly apply pressure to the system and note the pressure at which switch
actuates. If adjustment is necessary, remove the clear plastic cover over the lower
half of the switch. It is held in place by four machine screws.

5. Adjust the low setpoint first by using a 7/16˝ open end wrench on the left, range
spring adjustment nut. As viewed from above, turn nut clockwise to increase,
counter-clockwise to decrease the low setpoint (deactuation point).

6. Adjust the high setpoint by turning the deadband spring adjustment nut, on right,
clockwise to increase, counter-clockwise to decrease, the high setpoint (actuation
point).

7. Operate the switch through several pressure cycles to confirm proper setpoint
adjustment. Replace plastic cover.

MAINTENANCE

The flame path dimensions differ from EN 60079-1 requirements. Repairs to be by
Dwyer Instruments, Inc.

The moving parts of these switches need no maintenance or lubrication. The
setpoint is the only user adjustment. On models with optional drain fitting,
periodically rotate the small captive screw from side to side several times to keep
drain path clear. Units in need of repair should be returned to the factory prepaid.
