A pressure switch is a type of switch that is activated by the pressure of the process fluid upon reaching a certain threshold or set point.
Different types of pressure switch symbols are used, with the most commonly used symbols being the ones defined by the IEC and the NFPA (JIC).
A pressure switch regulates the system's pressure, ensuring that the reservoir level remains stable and safeguarding equipment from damage or running at low efficiency.
A pressure switch electrical symbol is a graphical representation of the component, providing electricians and engineers with an easy means of determining its position within the circuit without the need for a physical inspection.
The electrical contact of a pressure switch is typically NC (Normally Closed), NO (Normally Open), or changeover:
Pressure switch symbols are extremely complex, making them difficult and time-consuming to manually draw. Capital X Panel Designer lets you skip this process entirely. All you have to do is browse our selection of pre-made pressure switch electrical symbols and then drag and drop them into your schematic. With this easy-to-use electrical CAD software, you will enjoy a huge boost to your workflow productivity.
