Honeywell C6097B3028 Pressure Switch

The Honeywell C6097B3028 Pressure Switch is an essential industrial safety component designed for monitoring gas pressure or air pressure in large burner systems. This FM approved gas pressure switch features a 1-20" WC operating range and acts as a manual reset pressure limit, ensuring the system breaks on pressure rise to prevent hazardous conditions. Engineered with a 1/4" NPT connection, it integrates seamlessly into manifold blocks or standalone pipe mounts. As a field-proven Honeywell gas valve switch, it is the direct cross-reference for the 8101111202 model, making it a reliable drop-in replacement for maintenance technicians. The SPDT switching action provides versatility for interlock circuits, while the rugged construction withstands the high-demand environments of commercial boiler rooms. Utilizing this pressure switch for burners ensures precise setpoint stability and long-term reliability in critical HVACR infrastructure applications.

Key Benefits for Contractors

• Manual Reset Safety: Prevents automatic equipment restarts during high-pressure events, requiring a technician to inspect the system.
• Direct Cross-Compatibility: Exact technical replacement for part number 8101111202, reducing field troubleshooting time.
• Broad Setpoint Range: Adjustable 1 to 20 inch water column scale provides flexibility for various manifold pressure requirements.
• Durable Construction: Built to meet UL and CSA standards for reliable performance in industrial combustion settings.
• NPT Connection: Standard 1/4 inch NPT female threading allows for straightforward installation on most gas trains.

Common Questions

Is the Honeywell C6097B3028 suitable for both air and gas?
Yes, this switch is designed to sense pressure in systems containing natural gas, LP gas, or air, provided the pressure remains within the specified WC range.

What is the action of this switch on a pressure rise?
This is a "Break on Rise" model. When the pressure exceeds the setpoint, the internal SPDT contacts break the circuit, and the unit must be manually reset once the pressure returns to safe levels.

Can I mount this switch in any orientation?
While Honeywell C6097 series switches are robust, it is professional best practice to mount them in a vertical position to ensure the most accurate setpoint calibration and drainage of any potential condensate.
