FOX - W3S, W3A AND W3C SERIES ADJUSTABLE VACUUM SWITCH

W3 adjustable vacuum switches allow a micro-switch commutation once a preset vacuum value is reached.

The preset vacuum is found by adjusting the external screw located at the center of the instrument, rotating the screw clockwise to decrease and counter-clockwise to increase the value. Mechanical stops protect both the spring and the micro-switch from over pressurization.
