Description
The Refrigeration Pressure Switches (Low & High Pressure) are essential safety and operational controls engineered to continuously monitor system operating pressures and guard compressors against critical equipment failure. Manufactured with robust, corrosion-resistant housings and metal alloy pressure connections, these switches automatically interrupt power or cycle fans when suction or discharge pressures pass safe operating limits. Featuring calibrated adjustment scales and responsive internal bellows, this switch series is ideal for air conditioning units, chillers, and commercial refrigeration systems—preventing overpressure damage, loss-of-charge freeze-ups, and excessive equipment strain.

Important Buyer Verification Notes
Notice for Technicians & Contractors: Confirm whether your control circuit requires Automatic Reset or Manual Reset before installation. Perform a bubble leak test at the 1/4″ pressure connection port and ensure power is isolated prior to adjusting differential or range setpoint screws.
