Show Ratings & Reviews
Can these be used with 125 VDC? Are they compatible with diesel fuel?
The PSW-800 Series pressure switches cannot be used with 125 VDC. Maximum rating for DC Voltage use is 3A max @ 28VDC. The wetted parts would be compatible with diesel oil.

Do these switches consume any power?
These switches do not consume any power. They are simple a mechanical switch. Switch rating are 5 Amps for 125/250 VAC or 3 Amps for 28 VDC.

What is the thread size? I am looking to purchase the appropriate tap to thread this pressure switch into a schedule 40 pipe. Usually it’s pre threaded but this one was not.
The process connection thread on all ranges of the PSW-800 Series pressure switches is a 1/4-18 NPT male thread

Do the pressure and vacuum switches have an IP rating?
Although the PSW-800 are sealed very well they do not have an actual IP or NEMA environmental rating.

Are these switches compatible with DOT 3 brake fluid?
No they are not. The Buna-N material in the switches wetted parts will be attacked by the brake fluid
