C.1.2 Discharge Pressure Switch
P/N 18773 (See Figure C.1.2)
A discharge pressure switch is used in the system to send a signal confirming agent discharge to the control
panel or to initiate the shut down of equipment that may deplete agent concentration. It is a single pole,
double throw (SPDT) switch with contacts rated 10 Amps resistive at 30 VDC. e discharge pressure
switch shall be required where mechanical system actuation is possible, though its placement varies according
to the individual system arrangement.
REPLACEMENT COMPONENT: Refer to Section 2.4.2 of this manual for the equivalent replacement
component.

P/N 16384 (See Figure C.1.3)
e J120-192 Explosion-Proof Discharge Pressure Switch is used in
potentially explosive atmospheres to send indication of agent discharge
to a releasing panel and/or initiate the shut down of equipment that may
deplete agent concentration. It is a single pole, double throw (SPDT)
switch with contacts rated 15 Amps at 125/250/480 VAC resistive.
e J120-192 must be manually reset by turning the Manual Reset
knob in the direction indicated on the knob itself.
REPLACEMENT COMPONENT: Refer to Section 2.4.2 of this manual for the equivalent replacement
component.
