Pressure Switch for Industrial Use
The Ashcroft pressure switch monitors system pressure from 500 to 5000 psi. It uses a 1/4 in MNPT process connection and 316L stainless steel housing for corrosion resistance. The SPDT contact form provides one normally open and one normally closed circuit. This switch suits hydraulic and pneumatic machinery requiring reliable pressure control.
Wiring and Environmental Protection
The switch includes 12 inch PVC insulated wire leads for 3 to 18 AWG connections. A NEMA 6 enclosure rating and IP67 ingress protection guard against dust and temporary immersion. Wetted parts are 316 stainless steel and Buna-N, compatible with air and liquids. These features simplify installation in harsh industrial environments.
Verify Pressure Range and Media Compatibility
Confirm your system operating pressure falls within the 500 to 5000 psi adjustable range. Ensure the process media is compatible with 316 stainless steel and Buna-N wetted materials. Check that the 1/4 in MNPT connection matches your piping. Verify the electrical ratings suit your control circuit voltage and current requirements.

Questions about this item
How often will the Buna-N seal need replacement in air or liquid service?
Buna-N wetted material handles air and liquids; replacement interval depends on cycle count and media aggressiveness, not a fixed schedule.
Which electrical rating limits continuous operation first — the 5 A AC or 3 A inductive DC rating?
The 3 A @ 28 V inductive DC rating is lower than the 5 A @ 125/250 V AC rating, so inductive DC loads reach the limit first.
Does the IP67-rated 316L stainless housing stay cool enough for all-day runs without a fan?
No active cooling is fitted; the 316L stainless housing dissipates heat passively and the IP67 seal prevents ingress during continuous operation.
