Description
The tamper-resistant SM Low Pressure Switch is factory-set and capable of withstanding a maximum operating pressure of up to 250 PSI. The SM features set points from 2-120 PSI and is available in a variety of base material options, including brass, aluminum, nickel-plated, steel, 303 SS and 316 SS.
Snap-Action Switches
Nason uses only the highest quality snap-action electrical switches which insures a positive,
instantaneous electrical contact under all operating conditions. Nason electrical switches are UL, CSA, CE, and military listed. Ask about
Diaphragms
Nason pressure switches incorporate elastomer diaphragms to provide a positive media seal. Nitrile is the material of choice for most applications. Ethylene propylene, fluorocarbon, fluorosilicon, and neoprene are readily available for specific applications.
Differential
A distinct change in pressure (or temperature for temperature switches) is necessary to reset a Nason
snap-action switch to its original electrical state. This feature prevents “searching” and maximizes switch and system life. Catalog ranges are typical mid-range and can be varied with special construction.
Electrical and Media Connections
A wide variety of electrical connectors are readily available for most applications. Screw terminals, wire leads, blades, studs, conduit, automotive DIN and military connectors are stock items.
Nason’s offering of media connections is unmatched in the industry. NPT, BSP, SAE, JIS, DIN, MS and many others are readily available.
Electrical
A unique variety of electrical contact arrangements allows the system designer to achieve complex logic at minimal cost. Contact arrangements up to form ZZ and isolated dual set points are available.
Most Nason switches are available in a nominal 5 or 10 AMP rating. Gold plated contacts for low current and 25 AMP ratings are also available.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTION OPTIONS
Nason knows that your designs are used in all types of applications imaginable, so we want to make sure you have a choice of how you configure electrical connections. We offer you a wide and growing selection of connections, and if you want something else, just ask our design engineers for it.
Application
Nason switches are used successfully in a great variety of pneumatic and hydraulic applications. Military vehicles and equipment, aviation, marine, machine tools, farm and construction equipment, process equipment, medical equipment, and industrial machinery are typical applications.
