Neodyn 162P NEMA 4X, 7, 9 & 13 Differential Pressure Switch

Neodyn 162P NEMA 4X, 7, 9 and 13 Differential Pressure Switch is an adjustable, high-pressure instrument engineered for rugged industrial applications. Designed to maintain precise set points even under high system pressures, this switch features the efficient Nega-Rate® Belleville disc spring sensing mechanism, ensuring exceptional stability and vibration resistance.

Description

Neodyn 162P NEMA 4X, 7, 9 and 13 Differential Pressure Switch stands out as a heavy-duty solution for monitoring pressure differences in demanding process environments. Unlike standard switches, the 162P is specifically built to handle high static system pressures without compromising its switching accuracy.

Advanced Sensing Technology At the core of the 162P is the Nega-Rate® Belleville disc spring sensing mechanism. This proprietary technology provides a snap-action response that eliminates the set point drift often associated with fluctuating system pressures. It ensures the switch remains stable and reliable, reducing the need for frequent recalibration and maintenance.

Built for Hazardous and Corrosive Areas Safety is a key feature of the 162P series. It utilizes a hermetically sealed electrical assembly and offers an option for all-stainless steel construction, providing maximum resistance to corrosive elements found in chemical plants and offshore facilities. The unit carries listings from Underwriters’ Laboratories, Inc., FM Approval, and CSA International, verifying its suitability for hazardous environments.

User-Friendly Adjustment Field calibration is straightforward with the 162P’s external adjustment mechanism. An external 1/2″ hex head allows technicians to fine-tune the set point easily; turning the head clockwise increases the set point, with the full range covering approximately 24 turns.
