Description
Product Description
The SOR 107AL-N40-P1-F0A-X is a low differential pressure switch. SOR Controls Group makes this durable field-mounted instrument. This switch detects very small pressure differences. A large area diaphragm gives you accurate low pressure readings. The switching element is SPDT (single pole double throw). An external set point adjustment comes standard. Visual indication shows your current setting. This makes calibration very simple.
The 107AL-N40-P1-F0A-X works well for draft ranges in HVAC systems. It also suits burner management systems. The switch handles industrial air and gas services. Wetted parts are compatible with these media. Standard models fit weathertight or explosion-proof environments.

Installation Guide
Follow these steps to install the SOR 107AL-N40-P1-F0A-X correctly.
-
Turn off all power to the system before starting
-
Mount the switch in a vertical position for best performance
-
Connect the 1/8 inch NPT pressure ports to your process
-
Use thread sealant on all pipe connections
-
Connect the 18 AWG wire leads to your control circuit
-
Match the color-coded wires to your wiring diagram
-
Set the external adjustment knob to your desired set point
-
Apply pressure and verify switch operation
Do not exceed the maximum system pressure of 10 psig. Protect the switch from vacuum below 30 inches Hg.
Adjustment and Calibration
The 107AL-N40-P1-F0A-X offers simple field adjustment.
-
External set point knob needs no special tools
-
Visual indication shows your current set point
-
Turn the knob clockwise to increase the set point
-
Turn the knob counter-clockwise to decrease the set point
-
Test the switch with a known pressure source
-
Re-adjust until the switch trips at your desired pressure
You can calibrate this switch without removing the housing cover.
Maintenance Tips
The SOR 107AL-N40-P1-F0A-X needs very little maintenance.
-
Check the pressure ports for blockage every 6 months
-
Inspect wire leads for damage or corrosion
-
Verify the set point with a test pressure annually
-
Replace the switch if the diaphragm fails
-
Do not try to repair the sealed switching element
The hermetically sealed design prevents internal contamination.
Compatibility Notes
The 107AL-N40-P1-F0A-X works with many media. Compatible fluids and gases include air, nitrogen, and non-corrosive gases. The wetted materials limit chemical compatibility. Avoid strong acids, bases, and solvents. The switch is compatible with 11 mm Proximity Probes and other control systems.
