Key Features and Benefits
- U.L. Listed Snap-Action Micro Switch: Incorporates a single pole double throw (SPDT) snap-action micro switch for precise and reliable operation. The switch is U.L. and C.S.A. listed, ensuring safety and compliance with industry standards.
- Field-Selectable Circuitry: Switch circuitry can be configured as normally open (NO) or normally closed (NC), allowing compatibility with various medical gas alarm systems.
- Adjustable Switch Settings:
Low-pressure gases (Oxygen, Nitrous Oxide, and Medical Air) are typically set to alarm at 40 psi (low line pressure) and 60 psi (high line pressure).
High-pressure Nitrogen is typically set to alarm at 160 psi (low line pressure) and 200 psi (high line pressure).
The Medical Vacuum switch is factory-set to alarm at 12 in/Hg.
All switches are field adjustable, with detailed instructions included. - Removable Copper Diaphragm Capsule: Allows for easy servicing and replacement, extending the life of the switch.
- Instrument-Quality Switch: The snap-action switch ensures consistent performance and long-term durability, suitable for critical medical gas applications.
