Temperature Switches.

The SOR Temperature Switch consists of a pressure switch 
with a sealed temperature sensing bulb attached directly to the 
pressure port. (An optional remote temperature sensing bulb may 
be connected to the pressure port with an armor-clad capillary.) The 
temperature sensing system is pressure filled with a volatile fluid. 
Process temperature changes cause proportional vapor pressure 
changes in the temperature sensing bulb that act on the diaphragm/
piston assembly to actuate and deactuate a snap-action electrical 
switching element at discrete process temperatures. The 
instrument’s 
behavior is 
determined by vapor pressure 
(105 range model fill media is inert gas).

NOTE: If you suspect that a product 
is defective, contact the factory 
or the SOR Representative 
in your area for a return 
authorization number (RMA). 
This product should only be 
installed by trained and 
competent personnel.
