A20T-250-8-1/2 (10703161): Temperature Swichgage

The A20T-250-8-1/2 Temperature Swichgage is a diaphragm-actuated, 2" temperature-indicating gauge with a built-in electrical switch for tripping alarms and/or shutdown devices. This rugged, built-to-last instrument is fully sealed from the environment by the unique combination of a polycarbonate case and lens, a polished stainless steel bezel, and O-ring seals.

This vapour actuated gauge features a sealed capillary tube and a sensing bulb. When subjected to heat, the liquid in the sensing bulb changes to vapour creating pressure against the diaphragm mechanism. The diaphragm translates this vapour pressure into a mechanical gauge reading.

The gauge pointer acts as a temperature indicator and as one switch pole which completes a circuit when it touches the adjustable limit contact. Contacts are isolated through ground. This gauge has a self-cleaning motion to enhance electrical continuity.
