1 Intended Applications
The pressure switches are specifically applied for monitoring and controlling of operations using
maximum and minimum pressures. A limit switch triggers an electrical signal when minimum or
maximum pressure is reached.
DANGER
The switch may only be used in the specified fields of application (see nameplate).
The temperature has to be within the specified ranges, the pressure values and the electrical
rating must not exceed the values specified.
Observe also the applicable national safety instructions for assembly, commissioning and
operation of the switch.
The switch is not designed to be used as the only safety relevant element in pressurized systems
according to DGR 97/23/EC.
2 Safety Instructions
The safety instructions are intended to protect the user from dangerous situations and/or material
damage.
In the operating instructions the seriousness of the potential risk is designated by the following
signal words:
DANGER

6 Installation/Commissioning
DANGER
Only install or uninstall the switch when de-energized (electrically and hydraulically/pneumatically).
Pressure connection and electrical connection must be carried out by trained or instructed
personnel according to relevant standards.
The switch must only be installed in systems where the maximum operation pressure P
exceeded (see the name plate).
WARNING
Pressure peaks and p ressure shocks exceeding the maximum operating pressure are
inadmissible.
The maximum operating pressure is the upper final value of the adjustable range or, if specified,
the pressure indicated as maximum operating pressure (see Fig. 8 or the nameplate). Exceeding
the max. Operating pressure affects the performance and the life span of the product and may
damage it.
Pressure switches must be mounted vibrationless.
WARNING
Check the switch regularly to ensure it functions properly
If the switch does not work properly, stop operation immediately!
IMPORTANT
The standard G1/4” female thread can be mounted directly on the pipe connection. The mounting
with a screw-wrench (SW30 (width across flats 1.18”) (only on the thread block (see Fig. 7).
Torque: max. 30 Nm (22 ft- lb)
IMPORTANT
All pressure switches are 100% tested before they leave the factory. Factory proof pressure is
stated on the typed nameplate (see Fig.8).

IMPORTANT
We recommend using a fuse of the maximum current rating from the table above according to the load
switched.
Operating life time
Normal expected service life (expressed in the number of cycles over the full adjustment range) is
approximately 1 million for the pressure switch. This may be extended to 2.5 million cycles
maximum if only a part of the adjustment range is used (about 20%).
Switch sensor life may also be effected negatively by:
• Media not compatible with the wetted materials.
• Rapid pressure changes in the system, or in case of diaphragm switches >30 cycles/minute,
in case of piston switches >60 cycles/minute.
• System cycling pressure exceeding the top of the adjustable range.
The proof pressure may not be exceeded; otherwise the switch may be damaged. Careful selection
of the pressure range can have a posit ive effect on the service life of the switch .
Contact Protection
The micro switches used are normally suitable for both direct and alternating current operation.
Inductive, capacitive and lamp loads may, however, considerably reduce the life expectancy of a
micro switch and, under extreme circumstances, even damage the contacts.
Depending on the application spark suppression and current limiting is recommended (see figures 1
to 4).

Set point adjustment
Factory-Provided: pressure switch point setting
For pressure switches that have been factory set the setting will be printed on the nameplate
Warranty is not applicable for any changes that may occur due to transportation or installation.
For critical applications we recommend the setting is checked and re-set if necessary after
installation and wiring of the pressure switch.
In pressure switches, a displacement of the pressure sensing element (piston) occurs with a
change in pressure. Following the displacement of the pressure sensing element operates a
microswitch.
Upon delivery of the product, the set points are likely to be found in the middle of the adjustable
range. On request, factory-set points may be set at our factory. In this event, the set point will be
indicated on the nameplate, i = increasing, d = decreasing.

The set point is adjusted by turning the captive adjustment screw (see Fig. 7).
¾ Allow pressure switch to reach the desired switch pressure.
¾ Turn adjustment screw clockwise or counter-clockwise to activate the micro switch
IMPORTANT
Please consult the wiring diagram for the contact status at atmospheric pressure (see).
Precise adjustment of set point to actuate on increasing pressure
¾ 1. Lower system pressure to 0 psi.
¾ 2. Increase pressure slowly and check if micro switch is actuated at desired switch pressure.
¾ 3. If necessary, readjust by turning the adjustment screw
¾ Repeat prec eding steps (1. to 3.) until microswitch operates at desired switch pressure.
Precise adjustment of set point to actuate on decreasing pressure
¾ 4. Increase pressure up to a point clearly above the desired switch pressure (at least, switch
pressure plus max. hysteresis; not above max. operating pressure).
¾ 5. Lower pressure slowly and check if micro switch is actuated at desired switch pressure.
¾ 6. If necessary, readjust by turning the adjustment screw
¾ Repeat prec eding steps (4. to 6.) until microswitch operates at desired switch pressure.

8 Maintenance/Cleaning
Maintenance
The pressure switch is maintenance free. Checking the set points lies within the discretion of the
user. The usual preventive maintenance work in accordance with the PED guidelines must always
be carried out.
Please note that small set point drifts may occur during the initial use of the switch (run-in period).
Larger or continuing set point drifts during the normal use of the switch may indicate that the
measuring system is not used correctly within the specified limits, exceeding the design criteria or
is worn-out. This might lead to metal fatigue of the measuring system and it therefore should be
replaced before an ultimate rupture of the metal might take place. Please consult OMEGA for
guidelines.
