25PS, 42PS, 44PS, 45PS and 46PS
Series Pressure Switches
Key Features
• SPST or SPDT switch with normally
open or closed contacts
• Electrically rated to 600 Vac (44/45PS)
• High cycle life capability (42/44PS)
• Factory calibrated pressure setpoints
from vacuum to 750 psig
• Snap-acting stainless steel
hermetically sealed sensor
• Available with environmentally
sealed switch
• High current capability
The 25PS series is an automatic
reset pressure switch designed to
meet a broad variety of application
requirements. This series is avail-
for 2.5 million cycles.† In applications such as split room air conditioning systems, the 46PS as a head
pressure control can result in significant cost savings when used instead
of a pilot duty switch and relay.
able in SPST and SPDT, offers a
variety of pressure settings, port
fittings and electrical connections.
Applications
This line of pressure switches is
designed for direct control of
motors and other demanding loads
requiring precise pressure settings.
Operation
Extended electrical capacities and
life cycles, in both environmentally
sealed and unsealed configurations,
encourage usage in the most rigorous fan cycling and high/low
pressure protection applications.
The snap-acting stainless steel
diaphragm reverses its curvature
when pressurized to a customer
specified value. When the disc
snaps, it opens or closes a set of
electrical contacts by means of a
transfer pin. Resetting the switch
occurs automatically when pressure
drops below a preset value.
The 46PS pressure switch is capable
of breaking 2 amp loads at 480 Vac
