TYPICAL INSTALLATIONSWICHGAGEINSTALLATION(Refer to drawing)1. Secure the SWICHGAGE in the panel, using the clampand nuts provided.NOTEG: Be sure the SWICHGAGE andpanel are grounded.2. If necessary, drain coolant or lubricant to a level below thesensor entry point. Prepare the MURPHY adaptor nut (othersmay damage bulb) with teflon tape or pipe dope and screwsecurely into place.3. Slide the sending bulb through the adaptor and secure withthe union nut. If necessary, refill the system to operationallevel.NOTE B: Use only the union nut toremove the bulb. When refilling thesystem, loosen the union nut until fluidflow then tighten; this prevents airpockets in the adaptor.4. Wire the limit switch(es) to a Murphy magnetic switch orrelay.NOTE F: Light duty (2 A @ 30 V resistive)front contacts must be protected fromhigh current: disconnect power duringwire-up.CAUTIONS: (Refer to drawing)A. Avoid sharp bends, especially atgauge and at adapter: minimum diameter2”/50 mm.C. Bulb must be immersed in coolant orlubricant to operate N. properly. Be sureobstructions do not damage bulb whenin-serted. Insert bulb to full depth.D. If going through a firewall, use agrommet or other protective surrounding.E. Coil and secure excess capillary tube.Keep tube away from other hightemperature components.TEST:Start equipment and check readings; close limit switchor cause engine to heat to alarm/shut-down point.USE THE PROPER TOOLS - DO NOT OVERTIGHTENMurphy recommends mounting SWICHGAGES and magneticswitches away from excessive vibrations and the use of panelshock mounts wherever vibration may occur. Handle allinstruments with care: although durable, these products shouldnot be subjected to rough handling, dropping, or severevibrations.Magnetic Switches: Mount with electrical lugs down. Ifnecessary, drill the TATTLETALEâ and pilot-stud holes(template provided); clean away burrs and filings. Position themagnetic switch in the panel, making sure the pilot stud is inplace. Add TATTLETALEâ decal, then washer, then nut andtighten.BASIC WIRING OF SWICHGAGEâ AND MAGNETICSWITCHDisconnect battery or other power during installationMurphy components are easily wired-up andmaintainedUse good quality wire and terminals. Be sure all connectionsare Clean, Complete, and Correct. The wiring and the type ofmagnetic switch differ for various applications, but a knowledgeof basic electrical functions and of the circuits necessary forthe specific job (what you want to happen), and commonsensewill make the system work-the way you want it to work.See examples of typical wiring and instructions packed witheach magnetic switch.IMPORTANT, PLEASE READ COMPLETELYSWICHGAGEMurphy magnetic switches and valves,properly installed and maintained, are effective, work-readytools in any preventive maintenance program. For optimumperformance, check these tools periodically: look for frozenpointers, Kinked or worn tubing, broken wiring or looseconnections: close the contacts, then watch for expectedresults. Replace any damaged or worn parts: clean and repairas necessary Murphy will repair or replace parts covered bythe Murphy two year limited warrantyCheck the wiring: it must be Correct and Complete:tight connections, unbroken insulation, no accidentalgrounds, do not run shut-down wires with ignition wiring.Check all tubing and connections for leaks.Mount magnetic switches and Murphy valves in anupright position, to prevent moisture collection and shorting.CLEANING: If steam cleaning will be used, epoxy seal allmagnetic switches. Cleaning Lexan Lenses: since manystrong solvents and cleaners can haze and permanentlydamage the clear polycarbonate lens on SWICHGAGESâ ,please use one of the solutions listed here: mild soap andwater;mineral spirits; white kerosene; VM&P naphtha,heptane, hexane, varsol No. 2; methyl/isopropyl/isobutylalcohols; 1 & 3 denatured alcohols: freons TF & TE; petroleumether (65C boiling pt.)CAUTION: Many of these cleaners areflammable. DO NOT USE when theequipment is running or very not .Keepaway from sparks and flame.#064334CMA
