This pressure switch trips across a 4 to 100 psi (0.28 to 6.89 bar) set range on a 5 A SPST contact with a 1.1 to 9 psig (0.08 to 0.62 bar) deadband. It connects through a 1/8" NPT Male port in a sealed industrial body. It suits miniature oem pressure and vacuum monitoring and compressor and pump control.
This pressure switch trips across a 4 to 100 psi (0.28 to 6.89 bar) set range on a 5 A SPST contact with a 1.1 to 9 psig (0.08 to 0.62 bar) deadband. It connects through a 1/8" NPT Male port in a sealed industrial body. It suits miniature oem pressure and vacuum monitoring and compressor and pump control.
The PSW-500 Series comprises miniature pressure and vacuum switches with an external pressure scale and pointer for easy setpoint adjustments. They handle vacuum to 800 psi (55 bar), with high-proof-pressure 5 A models and gold-plated 1 A models, and compound and O-ring wetted parts.
