Description
Johnson Controls P70AA-5 Single Pole Low Pressure Control Overview
The Johnson Controls P70AA-5 is a single-pole, single-throw (SPST) low pressure control engineered specifically for ammonia refrigeration systems. With a close-high/open-low switching action, this control protects equipment by opening the circuit when system pressure drops below the setpoint — a critical safeguard in industrial and commercial ammonia refrigeration applications.
Key Specifications
- Switch Type: Single Pole, Single Throw (SPST)
