Nichiboku's industrial Insights

Introduction

Industrial pressure-control systems require reliable switching at defined pressure points for alarms, equipment sequencing and protective control functions.

The Nagano Keiki CS76 Pressure Switch uses a diaphragm sensing element and a double snap-action mechanism to activate its electrical contacts when the adjusted pressure point is reached.

Pressure Switching under Vibration

The CS76 incorporates a Belleville spring to support vibration resistance, durability and repeatable contact operation.

Its low setting-pressure ranges are combined with maximum operating-pressure capacities substantially higher than the adjusted range. This makes the series suitable for applications requiring low-pressure detection within systems that may experience higher operating pressure.

The CS76 is intended for general process locations without flammable gases or liquids capable of producing an explosive atmosphere. For hazardous locations, the separately specified CD76 explosion-proof model must be evaluated.

Switching Configurations

The model-code structure supports:

  • Upper-limit switching

  • Lower-limit switching

  • One-contact SPDT configuration

  • One-contact configuration for direct-current service

  • Two-contact simultaneous operation

  • Optional gold-plated contacts

  • Optional operating lamp

  • Optional terminal box

The terminal box and operating lamp cannot be installed together. Electrical contact ratings must be confirmed according to the selected switch configuration, voltage and load type.

Industrial Applications: Nagano Keiki CS76 Pressure Switch

The CS76 may be evaluated for:

  • Pneumatic-pressure control

  • Hydraulic-pressure monitoring

  • Pump and compressor protection

  • Liquid-level control

  • Flow-control systems

  • Lubrication and auxiliary equipment

  • Marine and industrial process machinery

  • Alarm and equipment-sequencing circuits

For high-viscosity fluids, Nagano Keiki warns that the diaphragm may stick and cause malfunction. A low-viscosity intermediary fluid or a special configuration should be evaluated with the manufacturer.

Information Required for Selection

Technical selection should confirm:

  • Complete CS76 model code

  • Pressure range and required set point

  • Upper- or lower-limit operation

  • Maximum system pressure

  • Process fluid and viscosity

  • Process connection

  • Contact quantity and switch type

  • Electrical voltage and load

  • Operating temperature

  • Mounting requirements

  • Required options and documentation

A replacement unit should not be selected only by appearance. The existing nameplate, complete model code, setting pressure, connection and electrical-contact configuration must be verified.
