Switches & Transducers

The 54767173 pressure switch monitors the pressure within the air compressor system and controls the start and stop of the compressor based on pre-set pressure values. When the system pressure drops below the pre-defined lower limit, the pressure switch sends a signal to activate the air compressor, initiating the process of filling the system with air to increase the pressure. Conversely, once the system pressure reaches the pre-set upper limit, the pressure switch sends another signal to halt the operation of the air compressor, preventing excessive pressure build-up within the system.

The performance and accuracy of the air compressor pressure switch have a considerable impact on the operational efficiency and stability of the air compressor. If the pressure switch is not calibrated accurately, it could lead to frequent start-stop cycles of the air compressor. This not only shortens the lifespan of the compressor but also results in energy wastage and pressure fluctuations in the system.
