NPA-Series NEMA 4 Electronic Pressure Switch

Brand: Ashcroft Inc
Does not ship to OH, United States

The Ashcroft® NPA Watertight pressure switch was designed to satisfy challenging applications requiring high cycle life with high current switch functionality.

This design incorporates a transducer that uses proven thin film technology to trigger a high quality relay, making this an extremely repeatable, reliable and long lasting switch.

This switch is ideal for use with pressure control, shutdown or alarm operations.
