Antiswitch pressure switch and thermostat Series 12

Antiswitch pressure switch and thermostat Series 12

Series 12 pressure switches, known as Spectra 12, are ideal for installations in potentially explosive atmospheres where space is limited.

A quick-acting Belleville washer spring assembly is used which is also vibration-resistant and ensures long switch life.

The hermetic 316 stainless steel enclosure and hermetically sealed micro-switch provide complete environmental protection. Approved for use in all types of hazardous locations, Spectra 12 switches are installed in applications ranging from offshore oil rigs to rotating equipment, power applications and all types of value protections.
