Always adhere to local codes and regulations during installation and operation. Disconnect power before servicing. Ensure proper grounding. Installation should be performed by qualified personnel only.

  • Read all instructions carefully before installation or operation.
  • Yiri akụrụngwa nchedo onwe onye dabara adaba (PPE).
  • Verify system pressure and electrical ratings are within the device's specifications.
  • Edozila ngwaọrụ a.

3. Ntọala na nwụnye

Proper installation is crucial for the reliable operation of the PS10-1 pressure switch. Follow these general guidelines:

  1. Ịkwanye: Select a suitable location where the switch is protected from physical damage and environmental extremes. Ensure the mounting surface is stable.
  2. Njikọ nrụgide: Connect the threaded connector of the PS10-1 to the system's pressure port. Use appropriate thread sealant to prevent leaks. Do not overtighten.
  3. Ọkụ eletrik:
    • Ensure all power is disconnected before wiring.
    • Open the switch housing to access the terminal block.
    • Connect the electrical wires according to the system's wiring diagram and local electrical codes. The PS10-1 is an SPDT switch, meaning it has common, normally open (NO), and normally closed (NC) contacts.
    • Secure all connections firmly using the screw terminals.
    • Close the housing securely to maintain its IP54 rating.
  4. Nnwale: After installation, slowly pressurize the system and verify the switch operates as intended at the specified set point.

4. Ụkpụrụ ọrụ

The POTTER PS10-1 is an automatic pressure switch designed to detect changes in waterflow pressure. Its internal mechanism responds to pressure fluctuations, actuating the SPDT contacts. The default contact type is Normally Closed (NC), meaning the circuit is closed when the pressure is below the set point and opens when the pressure rises above it, or vice-versa depending on the specific application and wiring. The switch provides a reliable electrical signal based on the detected pressure condition.

5. Nlekọta

The PS10-1 pressure switch is designed for minimal maintenance. However, periodic checks are recommended to ensure continued reliable operation.
