Resideo 3008 Pressure Switch
The Resideo 3008 Pressure Switch serves as a critical safety and operational component in pneumatic-electric control systems, specifically engineered for low-pressure monitoring and regulation. This single-pole, double-throw (SPDT) device is designed to facilitate precise electrical switching based on pneumatic signal variations within a 3 to 15 psi range. Contractors frequently specify the 3008 model for its reliability in HVACR sequences, where it can be wired to open or close a circuit on pressure rise. The unit features a standard 3/16" barbed fitting for secure connection to pneumatic tubing, ensuring a leak-free interface in industrial environments. Engineered for versatility, this switch handles both line voltage and pilot duty applications, making it essential for managing actuator positioning and compressor cycling. Its rugged construction ensures consistent setpoint repeatability and minimal differential drift, providing the stability required for demanding commercial climate control architectures.
Technical Specifications and Key Benefits- Adjustable Operating Range: Precision control between 3 and 15 psi for diverse pneumatic system requirements.
- SPDT Switching Logic: Provides flexible wiring configurations for normally open or normally closed operations.
- Pneumatic Compatibility: Features a 3/16" barbed connection compatible with standard polyethylene or copper tubing.
- Universal Mounting: Compact footprint allows for easy integration into existing control panels or equipment housings.
- Electrical Versatility: Suitable for a wide range of voltage inputs common in HVACR control circuits.
What is the maximum pressure rating for this switch?
The Resideo 3008 is optimized for the 3-15 psi range; exceeding its maximum burst pressure can deform the internal diaphragm and affect calibration.
Can this switch be used for vacuum applications?
No, this specific model is designed for positive pressure sensing only. For vacuum-specific requirements, a dedicated vacuum-to-electric transducer is necessary.
How do I adjust the setpoint?
The setpoint is adjusted via the internal screw mechanism; it is recommended to use a calibrated gauge during commissioning to ensure the switch triggers at the exact pneumatic pressure required by the sequence of operations.
