The ALCO PS3 is a Pressure Switch with fixed switch-point
settings.

Features

Maximum Operating Pressure up to 43 bar

Test Pressure up to 48 bar

Standard factory settings from stock in small volumes

High and low pressure switches

High temperature version with snubber for direct
compressor mounting (Range 6)

Direct mounting reduces the number of joints and thus
avoiding potential leakage

Precise setting and repeatability

IP 65 protection if used with the new PS3-Nxx and PS3-
Lxx cables with plug (acc. EN 175301-803), no additional
gasket required (molded into plug)

Customer specific versions in multipacks, minimum order
quantity 100 Stück

Options

For direct mounting on a pressure connection (free
standing) or with a capillary tube

Direct compressor head mounting with high temperature
bellows and snubber:

- reduces the number of joints

- avoids potential leakage

- saves high cost of flexible hose

TÜV approved versions for high and low pressure

Micro-switch for narrow pressure differentials

Gold plated contacts for low voltage/current applications

Cables with plug PS3-Nxx/PS3-Lxx not included; to be
ordered separately (see page 8 for details)

Introduction

PS3 are equipped with a SPDT snap action contact, switching
from 1-2 to 1-4 on rising pressure and from 1-4 to 1-2 on falling
pressure (see diagram). The PS3 is factory preset according to
customers specification and is not adjustable. Several models
are available:

Low pressure switch, with automatic or manual reset

High pressure switch, with automatic or manual reset

TÜV approved safety high pressure limiter with automatic
reset

TÜV approved safety high pressure cut-out, with internal or
external manual reset

TÜV approval for pressure switches can be reached either by
using a double diaphragm (Pressure range 1-5) which acts in a
fail-safe mode or by a single pressure element (Bellows,
Pressure range 6) which is able to resists to > 2 Mio. cycles
between 50% and 100% of the maximum operating pressure
(see 4.6.1 of EN 12263).
