Part II - Adjustments

Tools Needed

Models 126, 134, S126B, S134B:  

3/16" & 1/4" open-end wrenches

Models 136-160, S136B-S164B, 680:

  5/8" open-end wrench

Models 258-274, 354-364:

  11/16" open-end wrench

Models 218-230: 

 1/4" open-end wrench

Models 610-614:

  3/16" open-end wrench

Pressure Models

For  set  point  adjustment,  connect  unit  to  a  calibrated  pressure  source. 
Remove  cover  and  gasket.  The  adjusting  screw,  labeled  “A”  in  Figures  1  & 
2, is located beneath the switch and is turned to adjust the set point. Using 
the appropriately sized open-end wrench (see Tools Needed above), turn the 
adjustment screw towards the left (clockwise) to increase set point or towards 
the right (counter-clockwise) to decrease set point.

Vacuum Models

For set point adjustment, connect unit to a calibrated source. Remove cover 
and gasketing. The adjusting screw, labeled “A” in Figures 1 & 2, is located 
beneath the switch and is turned to adjust the set point. Using a 1/4” open-end 
wrench,  turn  the  adjustment  screw  towards  the  right  (counter-clockwise)  to 
increase  set  point  (towards  full  vacuum)  or  towards  the  left  (clockwise)  to 
decrease set point (towards 0 psig)

NOTE: For models 126-134 & S126B-S134B, use 3/16” open-end wrench to 
keep item B (Figure 2) from turning.

NOTE: Picture shows optional adjustable deadband switch (option 1520)

Types with Adjustable Deadband Switch (Option 1520)

Types with option code 1520 incorporate a snap switch with integral adjust-
ment wheel (Item C in Fig. 2).  Turning this wheel raises or lowers the pres-
sure rise set point.  The fall set point remains constant.  To use the adjust-
able deadband switch:

•  Determine set point and deadband values.  For example, a rising set 

point of 20 psi with a deadband value of 6 psi.

•  Set the falling set point at desired deadband value (determined by 

subtracting the deadband value from the desired set point) using the 
standard adjustment screw as outlined above.  Using the example from 
set 1, 20 – 6 = 14, so you would set the fall set point at 14 psi.  This 
is your constant.

•  Set your deadband by turning the adjustment wheel left to raise or 

right to lower the set point.  Using the example from step 1, turn the 
wheel left or right until 20 psi is achieved.  This is your set point.

Consult UE for additional information.

Types with Manual Reset Switch (Option 1530)

These optional models incorporate a snap switch that when actuated, remains 
actuated until the pressure decreases and the reset button (located on top of 
the enclosure) is manually depressed to reset the switch.

REPLACE  COVER  AND  GASKET  WHEN  ALL  OPERATIONS  ARE 
COMPLETE AND BEFORE USING.
