The current March 2026 order table confirms the B switch for ranges 30, 85 and 340. It also lists 600 and 1600 psi ranges without a corresponding confirmed switch code; contact Mod-Tronic for these ranges. The 1600 range is not UL approved and excludes Viton. Confirm the required hazardous-location approval and factory preset before ordering. This page covers the current P1X model.
