INGCO S-AC-PSW-AC25506, Compressor Pressure Switch 50ltrs( S-AC-PSW-AC25506)

product details:

A compressor pressure switch, specifically for a 50-liter compressor, plays a crucial role in automating the operation of your compressor and maintaining consistent air pressure. Here’s a breakdown of its functions, specifications relevant to a 50-liter compressor, and usage:

Function:

The pressure switch acts like a pressure-controlled on-off switch for your compressor. It has two key functions:

1. Activates the Compressor: When the air pressure in the tank falls below a preset cut-in pressure (typically around 60-80 PSI for a 50-liter compressor), the switch automatically turns on the compressor motor. This allows the compressor to refill the tank with compressed air.
2. Deactivates the Compressor: Once the air pressure in the tank reaches a preset cut-out pressure (usually around 90-100 PSI for a 50-liter compressor), the switch automatically turns off the compressor motor. This prevents the compressor from overfilling the tank and potentially causing damage due to excessive pressure.

Specifications for a 50-liter Compressor:

While specific pressure settings can vary slightly depending on the manufacturer, here are typical values for a 50-liter compressor:

• Cut-in Pressure: 60-80 PSI (activates the compressor)
• Cut-out Pressure: 90-100 PSI (deactivates the compressor)

Pressure Switch Components:

A typical compressor pressure switch will consist of:

• Pressure Gauge: This gauge displays the current air pressure within the compressor tank.
• Two Pressure Adjustment Knobs: One knob is for setting the cut-in pressure (when the compressor turns on), and the other is for setting the cut-out pressure (when the compressor turns off).
• Pressure Sensor: This internal sensor detects the air pressure in the tank and sends a signal to the control mechanism.
• Electrical Terminals: These connect the switch to the compressor’s electrical circuit, controlling the power supply to the motor.
