Questions
- Question
- Will a Dwyer pressure switch be damaged if the pressure exceeding the maximum set-point is applied to the switch?
- Answer
- No. Not unless the maximum pressure rating of the switch is exceeded.
- Question
- Can the 1900 Series be mounted so that the diaphragm is horizontal?
- Answer
- The series 1900 must be mounted with the diaphragm in the vertical position or the switch will be damaged. Please call one of our Applications Engineers for other position orientations.
- Question
- Do you have a troubleshooting guide for the 1823-80?
- Answer
- See the Instruction manual which comes with the unit or can be found under the Support Library tab on the Series 1800 web page. We would also recommend contacting Dwyer’s technical support team at 219-879-8000.
