Installation

To install the switches, use a suitable wrench on the port and plumb

into place with the proper sealant. For electrical wiring, refer to

wiring codes on the next page and to the specification sheet for the

switch ratings. For low DC loads (<50 mA, TTL logic) use switches

with gold contacts. All the switches are adjustable unless they were

ordered with the IP68 submersible option, in which case they are

factory set and not field adjustable. All switches are maintenance-

free.

Adjusting the Set point

1) Using a 1/8 inch Allen (Hex) wrench, adjust clockwise to

increase the set point and counterclockwise to lower the set

point. (Adjustments are done while applying a known pres-

sure and monitoring the switch’s state.)

2)

After verifying the set point re-assemble the switch.

Important Points!

Product must be maintained and installed in strict accordance
with the National Electrical Code and Dwyer product catalog
and instruction bulletin. Failure to observe this warning could
result in serious injuries or damages.

For hazardous area applications involving such things as (but
not limited to) ignitable mixtures, combustible dust and
flammable materials, use an appropriate explosion-proof
enclosure or intrinsically safe interface device.

The pressure and temperature limitations shown on the
individual catalog pages and drawings for the specified flow
switches must not be exceeded. These pressures and
temperatures take into consideration possible system surge
pressures/temperatures and their frequencies.

Selection of materials for compatibility with the media is critical
to the life and operation of Dwyer products. Take care in the
proper selection of materials of construction, particularly wetted
materials.

Life expectancy of switch contacts varies with applications.
Contact Dwyer if life cycle testing is required.

Ambient temperature changes do affect switch set points,
since the specific gravity of a liquid can vary with temperature.

Dwyer Products have been designed to resist shock and
vibration; however, shock and vibration should be minimized.

Filter liquid media containing particulate and/or debris to
ensure the proper operation of our products.

Electrical entries and mounting points in an enclosed tank
may require liquid/vapor sealing.

Dwyer Products must not be field-repaired.

Physical damage sustained by the product may render it
unserviceable.
