Specifications - Installation and Operating Instructions
Series A1F Compact OEM Pressure Switch
The Series A1F Compact OEM Pressure Switch is ideal for
panel mounting wherever a high-quality, economical open-case or
weatherproof control is required.
INSTALLATION
1. Location: Select a location where the temperature limits of -40
to 180°F (-40 to 82°C) will not be exceeded. Locate the switch as
close as possible to the pressure source. Long lengths of piping
will not affect accuracy of the actuation point but will slightly add
to response time.
2. Mounting and Processing Connection: Avoid mounting sur-
faces with excess vibration which could cause false actuation
when pressure is near setpoint. The switch should be mounted
within 20° of vertical for proper operation. Mount the switch by
connecting it to the process piping using either 1/4˝ NPT female
or 1/2˝ male connection. Pipe joint compound or TFE thread tape
should be used to prevent leakage.
3. Electrical Connections: The SPDT snap switch includes nor-
mally open, normally closed and common connections. The com-
mon and normally open contacts will close and the common and
normally closed contacts will open when pressure increases to the
setpoint. The actions will reverse when pressure decreases below
the setpoint minus the deadband. A green grounding screw is
provided on the switch bracket. All wiring should be in accor-
dance with local codes.
SETPOINT ADJUSTMENT
1. Determine the setpoint pressure. The approximate actuation
point can be set by turning the adjustment cap up or down, align-
ing the top of the O-ring, located above the cap, with the appro-
priate scale graduation.
2. Connect tubing or piping from the pressure port on bottom of
switch to one leg of a tee. Connect the second leg to a pressure

test 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
action terminals to indicate when switching occurs.
4. Slowly apply pressure to the system and note the pressure at
which switching occurs.
5. Operate the switch through several cycles to confirm proper
actuation point.
6. Remove test apparatus and attach switch to pressure source
and control circuit wiring. Place switch in service.
