Pressure Relief Procedure

Installation

1.

Disconnect power to pump.

2.

Disconnect cable from switch.

3.

If replacing a pressure switch on an existing installa-
tion, relieve pressure.

4.

Locate unit where shock, vibration and ambient tem-
perature fluctuations are minimal. Do not mount in 
ambient temperature areas exceeding 160°F 
(71°C).

Unit may be mounted in any position. However, 
if installation location results in frequent expo-
sure to liquid it is recommended that the unit be 
mounted vertically with the pressure connection 
down. 

5.

Screw switch into manifold. Always use a wrench on 
pressure connection wrench flats.

6.

Test unit before use.

Adjustments

1.

Rotate the top portion of switch (with the lock and 
unlock symbols) to align the unlock symbol with the 
two white arrows (F

IG

. 1).

2.

Adjust set point to the desired pressure setting. 
2500 psi (172 bar, 17.2 MPa) is the factory default 
setting.

3.

Adjust the reset point to the desired pressure set-
ting. 500 psi (35 bar, 3.5 MPa) is the factory default 
setting. 

4.

Rotate the top portion of the switch to align the lock 
symbol with the two white arrows (F

IG

. 2)

5.

Recheck set point and reset point and install switch 
according to installation instructions.

Status LED’s

Relieve pressure in the system following the procedure 
recommended for your operating system or pump.

NOTICE

Electrical ratings must not be exceeded. Over-
load on a switch can cause switch to fail on the 
first cycle.

Never exceed pressure limits. Unit can be oper-
ated up to maximum pressure on a limited basis 
(i.e., set-up, testing) but continuous operation 
must be restricted to the designated adjustable 
range. Excessive cycling at maximum pressure 
limits could reduce sensor life.

Steady Green 
LED

Power is supplied to pressure switch. 

Yellow LED turns 
off and on

When you reach pressure, yellow LED 
lights. When pressure drops below reset 
value, yellow LED turns off.
