SPLC and SPLFC SWICHGAGE® temperature indicator gages include 2 pilot duty, pointer-type limit contacts (one for high and one for low) that can be used for alarm and/or shutdown. The SPLC and SPLFC models will complete a cir- cuit when the gage pointer and either limit contact meet. This provides an elec- trical signal to alert the operator of critical temperature conditions or, when required, to shut-down the equipment.

Both limit contacts (high and low) are field adjustable by simply turning the fingertip type knob to the desired point on the scale dial.

The graphic below shows details of a typical SPLFC SWICHGAGE® model.

The 45TE series SWICHGAGE® incorporates 2 SPDT snap-switches instead of the pointer-type contacts of the SPL. Unlike the SPL that completes an elec- trical circuit as soon as the pointer touches the contact, the 45TE trip point indi- cators will stop the pointer movement slightly before the switches operate. As temperature continues to increase (reaching high set point) or to decrease (reaching low set point), the electrical circuit is then made. It provides the abili- ty to set the trip point exactly with the indicator needle—no guessing or equip- ment calibration is needed as on blind switches. The 45TE trip points (high and low) can be easily set using its stacked knob adjustment. See the schematic below for details.

(BP) Latch Relay Contact Models

Primarily designed to maintain a specific temperature range by turning ON or OFF heaters or coolers having 125 VAC circuitry, the SPLBP and 45TEBP SWICHGAGE® models are applicable to a variety of situations where tempera- tures are variable and controlling factors. As the pointer touches a preset high or low limit contact/snap-switch, the magnetic latching relay sets or resets to latch

a heater or cooler ON or OFF. The relay unlatches, (resets) when the opposite contact operates. Pictured below is a typical application.

For applications with higher voltages, a Murphy TR assembly can be used in conjunction with any 4-1/2 in. (114 mm) dial SWICHGAGE®.
