Overview

The 76052-00000150-01 is a rugged electromechanical pressure switch designed for reliable performance in harsh environments. It features a factory set point of 15 PSI with an SPST normally open (NO) contact configuration and a durable 1/8 inch NPT threaded male port. Built to withstand extreme temperatures from -40C up to 121C, it is suitable for demanding industrial and mobile applications.

Why Choose This Part

This switch offers high durability with a maximum pressure rating of 500 PSI, far exceeding its 15 PSI operating set point. Its screw terminal design ensures secure electrical connections in high-vibration environments, while the simple SPST mechanical output eliminates the need for complex signal conditioning electronics.

Applications

Heavy-Duty Engine Monitoring
Used for sensing critical motor oil or transmission oil pressure levels to trigger warning lights or safety shutdowns.
Industrial Air Compressors
Acts as a safety or control switch in pneumatic systems to monitor tank or line pressure.
Fuel System Management
Compatible with hydrocarbon media and jet fuel for monitoring pressure in aerospace or stationary fuel delivery systems.
Hydraulic Power Units
Provides simple, low-cost pressure threshold detection in small hydraulic circuits where a full transducer is not required.

Getting Started

Integration requires mechanical installation into a 1/8-27 NPT female port using appropriate thread sealant. Electrical connection is made via two screw terminals; ensure the load does not exceed the contact rating of the internal switch. No software or calibration is required as the set point is factory-defined.
