Model 580A Differential Pressure Switch

The BUA with 3/4-inch bellows accommodates differential pressures up to 

400 psi. The range springs are grouped around the outside of the bellows and 

must be of a material that is compatible with the liquid being measured.

The BUA with 5/8-inch bellows accommodates differential pressure ranges 

up to 1000 psi. Like the BUA with 3/4-inch bellows, the range springs are 

grouped outside the bellows.

The Model 224 DPU general specifications are presented in 

Table A.1, page A-3
