Adjustable

Dead Band Pressure Switches.

The pressure sensing elements are a pair of force-balanced, piston-
actuated assemblies sealed by flexible diaphragms and o-rings that
are static. The only wetted parts in this arrangement are the single
pressure port, two sensing assembly diaphragms and o-rings.

Media pressure on the area of the pistons counteracts the force of the
range springs (adjustable by the adjusting nuts), which moves the piston
shafts only a few thousandths of an inch to operate the lever assembly which actuates and
deactuates the electrical switching element.
