A spring loaded diaphragm or a spring loaded piston sensing element (at higher pressure) are the metrological base for the PKP Low-Cost pressure switches PS00. Under the effect of pressure, the measuring element actuates an electronic microswitch equipped with self cleaning contacts, thus ensuring a long service life.
The preload of the spring can be infinitely varied by means of an adjusting screw, so that the switching point can be varied over the entire adjustment range.
The devices with angled plugs are also available with an adjustable reset hysteresis.
Typical applications
The mechanical pressure switches are used in all areas in which an electrical signal is required as a function of specified pressure values.
The small dimensions, the high reliability and the long service life predestine these devices especially for applications in machine and plant construction. Due to the excellent price/performance ratio, the PS00 is also suitable for OEM applications with medium to high quantities.
