SDB500EX-2 Temperature Swichgage (10701159)

SDB500EX-2: Direct Mounting Temperature Swichgage for exhaust gas temperature; Explosion-proof enclosure; 1/2 NPT thermowell (10701159)

The SDB Series are direct-mounting temperature Swichgage devices. They provide an accurate direct-reading gage with an adjustable limit switch to activate alarms and/or shutdown. A knob on front of the Swichgage instrument allows you to adjust the limit switch trip point. Pointer movement is actuated by a bi-metallic sensing element.

The SDB500EX-2 has a temperature range of 100° to 500°F (40° to 260°C), an enclosure that is explosion-proof and is CSA listed for Class I, Group C and D hazardous locations.

The "-2" designation in the part number indicates that a 1/2" NPT thermowell is included in the box (see images).

The most common use of the SDB Series is to monitor gas compressor temperatures. Engine exhaust temperature can also be monitored to indicate overloading or lean fuel mixtures, or use the SDB to help coordinate loads on twin-engine installations.
