6702 Pressure Switch

The industrial pressure switch is moulded entirely in plastic with the exception of the pressure connection and is water, oil and dust proof to IP65. The switches have excellent repeat accuracy, even over widely varying ambient conditions. The operating pressure is adjustable externally using the thumb screw on the top and the approximate pressure setting can be seen through a window in the cover. To discourage unauthorised tampering, the adjusting screw can be locked in position with an M1.5mm Allen screw. The microswitches have independent vernier adjustment and are normally set to operate within 2 PSI on rising pressure. Where two pressure levels are to be controlled, the switches can be adjusted separately so that one switch will operate at up to 80% of the level of the second. The switches can also be set to operate simultaneously on falling pressure instead of rising pressure. The pressure switch is of Class II construction with double insulation. For quantity orders, many special options are available, please enquire:- v Single or double pole switching set to specific pressure levels v Alternative connector sizes v Alternative diaphragms and metal chambers to resist particular fluids v Installation and setting instructions are supplied with each product Withstand pressure 500 PSI (34.5 Bar) Setting accuracy when set by herga ± 10% Temperature range -5˚C to +70˚C Diaphragm Fabric reinforced Nitrile Weight 300g Other Information Acetone Ammonia (Liquid) Amyl Alcohol to 20˚C Automotive Brake Fluid Beer Butane Carbon Dioxide (Dry) 3 Citric Acid 3 Copper Sulphate (Sol.)

6753 Pressure Switch Range

For very sensitive pressure, vacuum and differential pressure switching. The 6753 range of switches provide a high specification in a small, versatile body shell. Great care has been taken in the switch unit design, keeping the moving mass and therefore inertia to a minimum. This means that it can operate at a high cycle rate with low pressure, vacuum or pressure differential. This design feature can be used when measuring pressure pulses such as on component counting applications and used with herga Safe Edges. The switch will operate very rapidly keeping the switch delay to a minimum. 1) For good repeatable switching, the contacts are gold plated on solid silver. The electrical rating of the switch is dependent on the contact pressure. This pressure is dependent on the air pressure. Thus, for very sensitive setting the permissible switching current will be lower than normal. 2) The standard switch can be adjusted to give normally closed or normally open contacts depending on the application. For operation on pressure with normally closed contacts, connect to air connection ‘A’ and screw in sensitivity adjusting screw ‘S’ until contacts are normally closed. For operation on pressure with normally open contacts, connect to air connection ‘B’ and set with contacts normally open. 3) A separate version, (see bleed options), is provided with adjustable air bleeds on both sides of the diaphragm. These air bleeds are adjusted to a level which is suitable for most applications involving safe edges or elbows, and prevent pressure or vacuum building up inside when the ambient temperature or atmospheric pressure changes. Contact Rating Maximum 0.5A RES 250V ac (Maximum ratings may not be achieved at low pressure settings)
