Pressure switch and Thermostat
CAS
The CAS Series consists of a series of pressure
controlled switches and temperature controlled
switches. In this series, special attention has been
given to meeting demands for a high level of
enclosure, robust and compact construction and
resistance to shock and vibration.
The series is suitable for use in alarm and
regulation systems in factories, diesel plants,
compressors, power stations and on board ships.

Enclosure
IP67 acc. to EN 60529.
The pressure control housing is enamelled
pressure die cast aluminium (GD-AISi 12).
The cover is fastened by four screws which
are anchored to prevent loss.
The enclosure can be sealed with fuse wire.
Identification
The type designation and code no. of the unit
is stamped in the side of the housing.

Function
I. Alarm for rising pressure
given at the set range value
II. Alarm for falling pressure
given at the set range value
minus the differential
a. CAS 155
Contacts 1-4 make and contacts 1-2 break when
the differential pressure rises above the set range
value. The contacts changeover to their initial
[bar]
position when the differential pressure again falls
to the range value minus the differential
(see fig. 1).

Example 1:
An alarm must be given when the lubrication oil
pressure in a motor falls below 0.8 bar. Select
CAS 133 (range 0 – 3.5 bar).
The minimum permissible lubricating oils
pressure of 0.8 bar must be set using the range
spindle. The differential is fixed at 0.1 bar, i.e. the
alarm will not cut out before the pressure rises to
0.9 bar.
The switch break function is normally used for
alarm purposes, i.e. the alarm must be connected
to terminals 1 and 4.
