C437D,E,F,G,H,J,K AND C637B GAS PRESSURE SWITCHES
60-2320—9
3
Switch:
Mercury switch (C437F,J and K have two spst switches in one mercury bulb).
Differentials:
Fixed, nominal; measured at pressure indicated:
a
in. = inches of water; mm = millimeters of water.
b
Restrictive orifice in inlet pressure channel to compensate for momentary surges in gas pressure.
c
Not available for C437J.
d
Subtractive models: switching action occurs on pressure rise to the setpoint.
e
Not available for C437K.
f
Additive models: switching action occurs on pressure fall to the setpoint.
Pressure Ranges (Scale Range):
Specify one:
1/2 to 5-1/2 inches of water (10 to 140 mm of water, or
