Magnetic Spring Contact Switch (MSCS)

• Magnetic Spring Contact Switch

  An excellent choice when an accurate pressure switch is required in addition to a reliable pressure gauge
• Fully adjustable by the user
• These switches are actuated by the pressure gauge pointer to provide accurate field adjustment
• A removable adjustment key makes them tamper-proof
• They operate with an extremely broad power supply, AC or DC up to 250V max. (30W∼50 VA), allowing them to be used virtually anywhere in the world in addition to very remote applications with only DC battery pack power available
• Standard units consist of (2) two magnetic spring switches; either one or both switches may be used:
  • Switch (1) one is normally closed
  • Switch (2) two is normally open with operation referenced on rising (or increasing) pressure
• Magnetic Spring Contact Switches are available as a factory installed option on models 40-105, 40-115, 40-400 and 40-410
• The lowest full scale pressure range this switch may be used on is 0 psi to 60 psi because of the increased load on the pointer and bourdon tube
• A matching 4-pin connector with 5 feet of 4-wire and color coded shielded cable is standard

Applications

• Air compressors
• Gas compressors
• Hydraulic and pneumatic circuitry
• Die-cast machinery
• Plastic injection molding machinery
• Anywhere accurate off/on switching capabilities based on pressure are required
