RS PRO Adjustable Pressure Switch NC 0.2 bar to 2.5 bar, 250V AC, IP65, Steel Construction 297-0046

RS PRO 297-0046 is an adjustable pressure switch specifically engineered for use in pneumatic and hydraulic systems. Featuring a pressure detection range from 0.2 bar to 2.5 bar, this device provides an electrical signal output when the set pressure point is reached, aiding in precise process control and system safety monitoring.

Constructed with robust steel, it offers durability in harsh industrial conditions and can be mounted in any orientation to suit installation requirements. The compact form factor makes it ideal for applications requiring minimal footprint.

The switch includes normally closed (NC) or normally open (NO) contact configurations, supporting a 250V AC operating voltage with a maximum current rating of 500mA. It also features a wide temperature tolerance ranging from -25°C to 85°C, enabling reliable operation across diverse environmental conditions. The DIN 43650 plug connection ensures an IP65 rating, protecting the electrical components from dust and water ingress.

Adjustment of the pre-set pressure is easily done via a screw on the switch head, allowing for quick calibration. Mechanical stops safeguard the spring and microswitch from damage due to over-pressurisation, thereby enhancing longevity. The pressure switch is capable of enduring up to 1 million mechanical cycles at pressures up to 70 bar, translating to long operational life in demanding industrial settings.

Typical applications for this pressure switch include pumps, compressed air systems, machine tools, valves, and process control equipment in hydraulics and pneumatics sectors. Its versatility and compact design make it an excellent choice for varied industrial and manufacturing environments.

Packaging contains the RS PRO pressure switch complete with DIN 43650 IP65 rated plug and 1/4 inch BSP parallel male thread connector. Explore more RS PRO products and Pressure Switches for diverse industrial, laboratory, HVAC, and manufacturing applications on EnvMart.
