IMPORTANT Installation
Recommendations
SWICHGAGE® Used On Transmission/Clutch Oil Pressure
2. Models with pre-alarm have two switch points and when used with Murphy
SS300 speed switch–allows changing between high and low switch points
according to engine RPM. This configuration does away with nuisance
alarms when shifting or when at idle–yet maintains maximum pressure
protection. See Murphy Application Tip AT-01 for further details.
1. Install the SWICHGAGE® using a Murphy pulsation snubber PD2160 in
the pressure connection at the transmission or gear and at the SWICH-
GAGE®. The snubber helps reduce pressure spikes/surges which will
damage the gage sensing element. It also stabilizes the gage readout

*NOTE: A length of flexible hose between the gear and the SWICHGAGE®
helps dampen pressure surges.
