10136645-0422LF

The application field of the 10136645-0422LF, more commonly known as a pressure switch, is quite widespread and can be seen in many different kinds of industrial, automobile and other production-oriented facilities, as well as commercial complexes. This type of switch is used in many different ways, and can be customized, modified or tailored to fit almost any application.

The main purpose of a pressure switch is to monitor and control system pressure. Some common examples include HVAC-R systems, automotive and oil tanker systems, among others. Pressure switches act as an automatic switch, and when a certain pressure is reached, they will open or close a circuit. This means that when a certain level of pressure is reached, the pressured switch will operate and an electric signal will be sent to an associated system such as a warning light or other indicator.

The basic working principle of a pressure switch is relatively simple. When a certain amount of pressure is applied to the diaphragm or plunger of the switch, it will move and trigger the contact current, thus opening or closing the circuit associated with the switch. This is done by means of an adjustable spring-loaded pressure plate. As the pressure increases within the diaphragm, it will eventually reach a certain level where the spring-loaded pressure plate will compress enough to allow the pressure switch to close a circuit.

Most pressure switches also come with a safety feature that prevents the switch from being triggered at too high a pressure. This can be adjusted according to the level of pressure needed, thus protecting personnel and equipment. In addition, a pressure switch can be designed to reset itself after a predetermined amount of time has passed.

Modern pressure switches are very versatile, reliable and highly customizable. They are used in a wide range of industries including HVAC-R, automotive, automotive aftermarket, heavy machinery, and even consumer goods. With advancements in technology, switches can be found in smaller sizes that are more suitable for many applications where space is limited.

In the end, the 10136645-0422LF pressure switch is an important instrument in the industrial, automotive and other production-oriented operations. From HVAC-R systems to oil tankers and consumer goods, the pressure switch is a necessary component that allows these systems to be monitored and controlled accordingly. Thanks to its adjustable spring-loaded pressure plate and safety features, users can rest assured that these switches are doing their job properly.
