A sophisticated state of the art automated refrigerant low-side pressure controller of the mid 20th century. Representative of the 1940\u2019s and the new generation of commercial and industrial, refrigeration pressure and temperature controls that came with it \u2013 compact, precisely engineered by earlier standards,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Models with snap action switching, replacing the mercury bulb, were available for applications where vibration and tilting were concerned.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
