CR127A, CH127B Pressure Switches (Pilot Duty)

15 Amperes Continuous
600 Volts

Application
CR127 industrial pressure switches are designed for pilot-duty
applications in control systems of hydraulic and pneumatic equipment.
Typical CR127B The bellows actuated forms, used with low-pressure applications of air,
Pressure Switch water and most hydraulics, are applied primarily on machine tools and
welding equipment. Piston actuated forms are designed for use with
high-pressure hydraulics such as lubricating systems.

Both bellows and piston forms must be used within their maximum safe
pressure range which should be greater than line pressure including
Surge Reducer pressure surges. Although the switches are furnished with an orifice to
protect against minor surges, a surge reducer should be used for
protection against greater line surges. Also, a customer ground
connection is provided within the enclosure.
