The Series SA1100 Diaphragm Operated Pressure Switch is weatherproof and
explosion-proof in one economical enclosure. Extremely rugged construction assures
excellent reliability in chemical, petroleum and industrial plants. New design also
provides burst pressure protection to 3000 psi (206 bar). The rolling diaphragm
design maintains a constant effective area to minimize friction. This results in a
minimum deadband as low as 5% of full-scale. Since many applications require higher
deadbands, the SA1100 includes a separate adjustment of this when necessary. A
pump being used to control liquid level in a tank would be a typical situation where this
feature would be important. Both set point and deadband adjustments are protected,
yet clearly visible behind a clear polycarbonate window and are fully isolated from
the electrical components for additional safety. A 7/16˝ open-end wrench is the only
tool required to change settings. Terminal blocks are provided for switch wiring
connections and both internal and external ground screws are included. Standard
housing is weatherproof to NEMA standards 1 through 4X and 13; explosion-proof
to NEMA 7, Class I, Groups B, C & D; NEMA 9, Class II, Groups E, F & G. Optional
construction adds drain to meet NEMA 3R IP54.
FEATURES/BENEFITS
• Explosion-proof and weatherproof housing provides device protection for outdoor
use or harsh environment operation
• Burst pressure protection prevents device failure where high-pressure surges may
damage device costing down-time and repair/replacement
• Adjustable deadband reduces equipment cycling and potential failure
• Visible set point and deadband adjustments provide an easy and fast check without
having to open device causing dangerous conditions to operators
Single Pressure Switches
APPLICATIONS
• Chemical, petroleum, food and drug processing industries
• Used indoor, outdoor or in explosion-proof area
• Pump control
