tecsis introduces a new cable output for the mechanical pressure switches series S4150. These pressure switches are designed for various pressure ranges from 0.2 ... 2 bar up to 40 ... 400 bar and distinguish themselves by their high reliability and repeatability (± 2% of full scale). The integrated micro switch with self-cleaning silver contacts can be used reliably for switching currents from 5 mA to 4 A. The switching point can be set either ex-factory or onsite by the customer. Optionally, the pressure switch is available with a so-called 'hot-melt' output, which means the cable is molded with the housing. Hence a high degree of ingress protection is achieved (IP69K in preparation) and simultaneously a particularly robust strain relief assured. Even with the hot-melt version, the switching point can be adjusted both ex-factory and onsite by the customer. Controlling and monitoring of pneumatic and hydraulic devices in machine and plant engineering are typical applications of the sensor. The new hot-melt option is suitable for applications where severe environmental conditions are present, for example in mobile machines.
