Control the flow of water or air through your pneumatic system with this pressure switch from Festo. You can easily achieve a reliable connection by attaching it using the through-hole method with its G1/4 threaded end tightening in place to keep the valve secure. The die-cast aluminium body is hard-wearing and resists corrosion, so you can be assured of a long service life. This pressure switch is compatible with both AC and DC inductive and resistive loads for versatile electrical supply options.

• Maximum switching frequency of 3Hz for fast-action response
• Operating pressure range between 1 and 12 bar means the unit has versatile air-control abilities
• IP65 (ingress protection) rating indicates that it's protected against low-pressure water jets, condensation and dust particles
• Operating temperature range of -20°C to +80°C for use in harsh industrial environments

• Chemical plants
• Medical facilities
• Factory automation
• Food production
• Bottling systems

This pressure switch has a high current capacity and can operate with output currents of up to 5000mA (milliamperes).
