Instructions

Sentry Series
Models HP0* (Pressure Switches)
Models HD0* (Differential Pressure Switches)
Models HT0* (Temperature Switches)

General

The unit is manufactured, checked and supplied in
accordance with our published specification, and
when installed and used in normal or prescribed
applications, with the lid in place and within the
parameters set for mechanical and electrical
performance, will not cause danger or hazard to life
or limb.

THE USERS ATTENTION IS DRAWN TO
THE FACT THAT, WHEN THE UNIT IS
‘LIVE’ WITH RESPECT TO ELECTRICAL
OR PRESSURE SUPPLIES, A HAZARD
MAY EXIST IF THE UNIT IS OPENED OR
DISMANTLED.

UNITS MUST BE SELECTED AND
INSTALLED BY SUITABLY TRAINED AND
QUALIFIED

PERSONNEL

IN

ACCORDANCE

WITH

APPROPRIATE

CODES OF PRACTICE SO THAT THE
POSSIBILITY OF FAILURE RESULTING IN
INJURY OR DAMAGE CAUSED BY
MISUSE

OR

MISAPPLICATION

IS

AVOIDED.

Operating principles


Pressure Switch models P0* and Differential
Pressure Switch models D0* are diaphragm
operated switches.

These diaphragms generate a force proportional to
the applied pressure and are balanced by a user
adjustable control spring. When the force exceeds
that created by the control spring, the diaphragm
moves causing a push rod to actuate a snap-acting
micros-witch.

Temperature models T01 & T02 work in the same
way as the Pressure models with the exception that
the applied pressure comes from the expansion of a
vapour enclosed in either a rigid stem or semi-rigid
thermal system.

INSTALLATION

Mounting (All models)

The instruments are designed to be mounted
vertically with the process connection underneath.
However, mounting up to 45° from the vertical in any
plane is acceptable, although a small calibration shift

may occur. They can be mounted either direct to
process, or to a wall or panel using the mounting
holes provided. Select the mounting point so as to
avoid excessive shock, vibration or temperature
fluctuation. Instruments should be mounted to avoid
excessive heat transfer from the process lines or
adjacent plant. To avoid undue stresses being
imparted to the instrument when wall/panel
mounted, it is recommended that a short length of
flexible line be installed between the instrument and
process line. If sudden changes of pressure
(pulsations) are likely then we recommend that
snubbers are fitted between the process line and
instrument. Use a spanner to support the process
connection when fitting the instrument.

CHECK THE CONNECTION THREAD SIZE
AND SPECIFICATION ON THE UNIT TO
AVOID

MIS-MATCHING

WITH

THE

PROCESS CONNECTION ADAPTOR. SEE
DIGIT 11 OF PRODUCT CODE.

Mounting (T01 - Rigid Stem)

Assemble the unit via a thermowell, using the
spanner facility provided and ensuring that:

a) the sensing bulb is fully immersed in the
process temperature
b) the sensing bulb does not bottom out in the
thermowell which could cause damage

Mounting (T02 - Capillary system)

Mount the sensing bulb so that the capillary end is
above the bulb and the bulb is level with, or no more
than 250mm below the base of the instrument. The
stem is fitted with a sliding compression gland to
accommodate different thermowells.
