TE-6001-3 Johnson Controls

Overview

The Johnson Controls P32AC-1C is a sensitive differential pressure switch designed to detect air flow in ducts, low positive gauge pressure, or vacuum within Building Automation Systems (BAS) and HVAC environments. It operates by sensing pressure changes across a fixed restriction using a spring-loaded diaphragm to actuate a standard differential snap switch, often used to safeguard equipment like electric duct heaters by de-energizing them when airflow stops.

Features

• Easy-to-read internal setpoint scale plate
