Specifications
Dial: White on black, dual scale, °F and °C standard,
4-1/2 in. (114 mm) diameter.
SPLC and SPLFC SWICHGAGE® instruments have high
and low limit contacts to monitor, alarm or shutdown. The SPLC
has a flanged case. SPLFC has a flush mount case intended for
installation within a panel. A method to override the low limit
contact for startup is provided on most models (see Operation
Test Instructions on page 3).
Case: Die cast aluminum, surface or panel mount.
Capillary: PVC armored copper tube, 5 ft. (1.5 m) long standard.
Sensing Bulb: Copper bulb std.: 1/2 in. (13 mm) OD;
Length 7 in. (178 mm). Pressure rating: 600 psi (4.1 MPa)
[41 bar]. Connection: 1/2 NPTM compression fitting.
NOTE: Use of thermowell is highly recommended.
Switch Reset Deadband: Approximately 10% FS.
Snap-Acting Switches: See wiring information (page 4).
Dry Relay Contact (“BP” Models): 10 A @ 28 VDC or
10 A @ 120 VAC.
45TE and 45TEF Series are versions of the SPL Series
with 2-snap acting SPDT switches instead of the pointer type con-
tacts. The 45TE Series does not include low contact lockout.
Wire Connections (Surface Mount): 1/2 NPTF conduit/terminal block.
Wire Connections (Panel Mount): Wire leads, 18 AWG
(1.0 mm2) x 9 in. (229 mm) long.
Wire Connections (-ES, -OS, -CC): 1/2 NPTM conduit and wire leads,
24 AWG (0.22 mm2) x 33 in. (838 mm) long.
Overrange: Do not exceed 10% FS above full range.
Item Weight: 8 lbs (3.6 kg) approx. Explosion-proof models: 22 lb.
(10 kg) approx.
SPLBP and 45TEBP models are designed to start and stop
electric motor driven equipment. The pilot duty contacts are con-
nected to a latching control relay for automatic ON/OFF control,
either directly or through a motor starter.
Options -OS and -ES
The -OS (oil sealed case) and the -ES (environment sealed case)
options for corrosive environment feature flush mount case design
to be installed within a panel.
Item Dimensions: 16 x 11 x 5-1/2 in. (406 x 279 x 140 mm)
approximately. Explosion-proof: 12 x 12 x 9 in. (305 x 305 x 229 mm)
approximately.

Cutting or sharp bending the capillary will cause permanent damage
to the SWICHGAGE® and will void the warranty. Excess capillary
should be carefully coiled and secured away from damage. Do not
route capillary along exhaust manifold. Avoid routing capillary at a
level higher than gage mounting.

3. Insert the sensing bulb directly
through the adapter and fully

LIMIT CONTACTS / INDICATION POINTER ADJUSTMENTS
Limit Contact Adjustments
Facing the dial, left side knob is “Low limit” contact. Right side is
“High limit” contact.
Indication Pointer Adjustments
To reset to zero or to a known value proceed
as follows:

OPERATION TEST INSTRUCTIONS
45TE Series
SPLC and SPLFC Series
1. Perform steps 1 and 2 in the SPLC Operation Test Instructions.
1. Perform operation test after the unit is installed and wired appro-
priately (see Typical Electrical Diagrams on page 4).
2. To test the switches, turn the limit indicator until it touches the
pointer, then continue to rotate until the snap-switch operates*.
2. When temperature is applied to the sensing bulb the pointer will trav-
el in a clockwise direction. (Adjust contacts to desired set points.)
3. Reset the shutdown or alarm circuit device.
3. Place the toggle switch (SPLC Series only) in the “start”position
or otherwise override low contact. After the indication pointer
rises past the low limit contact, return the toggle switch to the
“run”position.
*
The trip point indicator will stop the pointer movement slightly
before the snap-switch operates. As temperature continues to
increase or decrease, the trip point setting is reached.
4. To test the limit contacts, turn the limit contact to be tested until it
touches the pointer. That will trip the control circuit.
5. Reset the shutdown or alarm circuit device.

TYPICAL ELECTRICAL DIAGRAMS
WARNING: Perform the wiring operation with the power source “OFF”. Make sure the voltage and current
®
requirements are within the SWICHGAGE ratings. Before wiring determine voltage and polarity for the
application. Use the appropriate wire size. All connections should be made using a spade (forked) or ring
terminals. For pigtail connections use wire nuts. Conduit is recommended to protect wires from damage.
