PS3 MINI-PRESSURE CONTROLS

The PS3 Mini-Pressure Control provides the ultimate in reliability and
flexibility in a commercial grade mini pressure control. A standard plug
connectable design simplifies installation and service. The SPDT switch
allows the addition of alarm circuits on high or low pressure
applications. The PS3 makes your application and selection easy.
Models with high temperature diaphragms and built-in pressure
pulsation snubbers make the PS3 ideally suited for compressor head
mounting high pressure limit control applications. Automatic or manual
reset versions are available. Pressure Ranges/Differential also make FEATURES
the PS3 controls ideally suited for condenser fan cycling applications. • Commercial Grade High/Low/Condenser Fan Cycling
Field Trimable Low Pressure versions with standard or narrow Pressure Controls for use on Refrigeration/AC Applications
differential switches make these controls ideally suited low pressure • Mini-Size2” x 1-1/2” x 2-3/4”
