Product Details


Capable of sensing very low positive or negative pressures, reliability and long life are inherent advantages of this design. Extremely easy set point adjustment: 1) Loosen the lock ring, 2) Turn interface either left or right until pointer is at the desire pressure or vacuum on range label, 3) Retighten the lock ring, and 4) Verify the adjustment by applying pressure or vacuum. See Switch Accessories at omega.com for Audible Alarms and Relay Modules.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Works as advertised I purchased this miniature presser switch to use in my racecar to trigger my Accusump. It works as advertised.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from rugged and compact vacuum switch I am using this with a vacuum and it switches at a very repeatable setpoint. Seems dependable and easy to adjust with a vacuum gauge to monitor the trigger point.

Hello howdo i adjust the range of a PSW-535 to open at 450psi and close at 250 psi. thank you

Asked by: 172M
There is no way to adjust the reset point (deadband) on a PSW-500 Series Pressure Switich. The deadband varies with the main setpoint setting. If your main setpoint up around 500 psi the switch will reset around 68 psi below the main setpoint at about 432 PSI.
