Parallel Compressor Systems
Series P100 Pressure Control
The P100 series, manufactured by Johnson Control, Inc., are
encapsulated, non adjustable, single-pole single throw, direct
mount pressure controls typically used for low or high pressure
cutouts. On the Heatcraft manufactured parallel systems, the
control is used for High Pressure cutout.
There are two types available. Auto Reset Models and Manual
Reset Models.
Auto Reset Models
When pressurized to the selected actuation pressure setting,
the internal snap-acting disc reverses its shape and drives
a set of electrical contacts either open or closed. When the
pressure drops below the de-actuation pressure setting, the
disc snaps back to its preset position thus resetting the electrical
contacts.
Manual Reset Models
The snap-acting disc in the manual reset model opens the
electrical contacts when actuated by the pressure sensor. Once
the disc snaps, the contacts are held open until an external
force on the push button closes them. Because of the disc’s link
with the pressure sensor, the contacts cannot be reset until the
pressure drops to a predetermined level.
The latching mechanism inside the manual reset model is trip
free. The electrical contacts will cutout even if the reset button
is held fully depressed. The control can only be reset when the
pressure returns to a predetermined level.

uses light reflecting from a conical glass prism as
a means of detecting the absence of a fluid at the level of the
glass cone. When no fluid covers the lower half of the cone,
infra-red light from the module reflects from the mirror-like
inner surface of the cone back to a light detector signaling the
electronic module to switch. When fluid covers the lower half
of the glass cone, the light from the module passes into the
fluid. This absence of light is detected by the module which
switches into the opposite direction. The module provides a
.06/.10 differential distance from the cone point down.
