Purpose-built pressure control
The Ashcroft B424VXCYLM30 is a diaphragm-actuated pressure switch designed for industrial machinery and process equipment. It covers a 3 to 30 psi range with a .5 to 1.5 psi differential and SPDT contact form. The 1/4 in FNPT port and NEMA 13, 3, 4, 4X enclosure suit demanding environments.
Upgrade from fixed-setpoint switches
Adjustable range and differential let technicians match cut-in and cut-out points to the application instead of accepting factory presets. The 90 percent factory on/off setting provides a ready baseline. The jump is worth it when a process needs tighter pressure bands or when a single switch must serve multiple pressure settings across equipment.
Integration into control panels
SPDT contacts rated at 15 A for 125, 250 and 480 V AC and 6 A at 30 V DC connect directly to motor starters, relays or PLC inputs. The NEMA-rated housing mounts without extra sealing in wash-down or outdoor locations. The single 1/4 in FNPT port simplifies piping to the pressure source.

Questions about this item
What pipe thread size does the 1/4 FNPT port on the B424VXCYLM30 require?
The switch has a single 1/4 inch FNPT port that accepts standard 1/4 inch male NPT fittings.
Which wiring step on the SPDT contacts is most often missed during installation?
Connecting the common, normally open and normally closed terminals to match the desired circuit action; the factory sets the switch at 90 percent of the 3 to 30 psi range.
How often should the diaphragm actuation be inspected on this NEMA 13, 3, 4, 4X switch?
Inspect the diaphragm annually or per site maintenance schedule; the snap-acting SPDT contacts are rated 15 A at 125, 250 and 480 VAC and 6 A at 30 VDC.
