The P28 controls provide
dependable and economical oil
pressure cutout for pressure
lubricated refrigeration
compressors. The factory set
pressure adjustment provides
operation to the compressor
manufacturer’s specifications.
The P28 measures the net oil
pressure available to circulate
oil through the lubrication
system. (Net oil pressure is the
difference between the oil gage
pressure and the refrigerant
pressure in the crankcase.)
A built-in time delay relay,
accurately compensated for
ambient temperature, allows for
pressure build-up on start and
avoids nuisance shutdowns on
short duration pressure losses
during the running cycle. When
supplied with terminal no. 3, the
control may be wired to operate a
runlight to indicate when
sufficient net oil pressure is
present. Terminal A is supplied
when a shutdown alarm or signal
is desired.
The P28 control is for use at
normal room temperatures of 32
to 104ºF (0 to 40ºC) and in areas
protected from the weather.
All Series P28 controls are designed
for use only as operating controls.
Where an operating control failure
would result in personal injury and/or
loss of property, it is the
responsibility of the installer to add
devices (safety, limit controls) or
systems (alarm, supervisory
systems) that protect against, or
warn of, control failure.
