The V-5100 Series Miniature Pressure Switches interface from vacuum to electrical controls circuits. They’re ideal for low differential vacuum applications. The switch is adjustable from 1 to 28" Hg with 29.9" Hg maximum.

The switches have three electrical terminals: Normally Open, Normally Closed and Common. 15 AMP switches are standard. 0.1 to 25 AMP switches are available.

Four mounting styles are available: The standard flush mount; the panel mount has a unique thread that goes from 1/8-27 tapered pipe thread to 1/8-27 straight pipe thread for mounting; the manifold mount is designed to mount directly on pneumatic circuit boards or manifold subplates - a Buna N o-ring is supplied. and 1/8-NPT mount which has 1/8-27 tapered pipe threads. The swithces are furnished with a B80 Barb, 10-32 Barbed Fitting for 1/16" I.D. tubing.
