  • Page 5: Introduction

    Introduction The DF series are diaphragm-operated ‘hydrostatic head pressure’ level switches. A pressure sensitive diaphragm operates a snap-switch that can be wired directly to electric pilot circuits to control pumps at pre-determined levels. A typical application is starting and stopping electric driven pump(s) to maintain tank levels.
  • Page 6 Set Point Adjustment for the DF757 Locate the threaded adjustment shaft and adjustment knobs (see the following drawings). To increase the low-level set point, rotate the lower knob counterclockwise. NOTE: If the adjustment shaft turns when rotating the adjustment knobs, firmly grasp the adjustment shaft with a pair of needle nose pliers, and then rotate the knob.

    The pump is held in a standby condition. An air purge may be required in the sensor line. For additional information, consult Enovation Controls. Choosing a Volume Cell The volume cell should be constructed of material which will be unaffected by the liquid being measured.
  • Page 11 Installation of the Volume Cell Install the volume cell with reference to the level at which you wish the pump to start and stop. Secure the volume cell with a substantial bracket that will not allow the cell to float or tilt when the water level rises.
