Service Manual

The A1N Pressure Switch is a low cost open case control suitable for water, oil, and non-combustible gas service with an electrical rating of 5 amperes at 125/250 VAC. The compact Series A1N control is available in field adjustable operating ranges from as low as 1.5 to 4.5 psig up to 41 to 100 psig (10.3-31.0 kPa to 283-690 kPa). The A1N features a Buna-N diaphragm and cast zinc housing with a proof pressure of 200 psig (1379 kPa).
