Model PCS Compact pressure switch

The model PCS mechanical pressure switches are ideal for safety-critical applications, requiring no supply voltage. They are compact and robust, with aluminum or stainless steel 316L enclosures, handling up to 1,000 bar. They support loads up to AC 250 V, 15 A with 1% repeatability. Variants include hermetically sealed microswitches for corrosive conditions and DPDT contacts for separate circuits. Features a diaphragm element with antagonist spring and optional SIL 2 or SIL 3 qualifications.

Special Features: No power supply needed for switching of electrical loads

Robust switch enclosure from aluminium alloy or stainless steel with identical dimensions, IP66, NEMA 4X

Setting ranges from 0.2 ... 1.2 to 200 ... 1,000 bar, vacuum ranges

Intrinsic safety Ex ia available

1 set point, SPDT or DPDT, high switching power up to AC 250 V, 15 A

Applications: Pressure monitoring and control of processes

Safety-critical applications in general process instrumentation, especially in the chemical and petrochemical industries, oil and gas industries, power generation incl. nuclear power plants, water/wastewater industries, mining

For gaseous and liquid, aggressive, highly viscous or contaminated media, also in aggressive ambience

For measuring points with limited space, e.g. control panels
