With a housing that’s designed to contain an explosion, these switches are safe to use in areas where ignitable concentrations of flammable or combustible gas, dust, or fibers may be present. They meet NEC Class I Div. 1 and 2, Groups B, C, D, and Class II, Div. 1 and 2, Groups E, F, and G. Use them to cut power and keep it isolated, so equipment won’t accidentally start up during inspection or maintenance.

Made from aluminum, these switches also resist corrosion in wet or oily areas. They have a lockout, so you can secure them in the off position with a padlock (not included).

Often used in hazardous locations, such as chemical plants, refineries, and grain elevators, these switches have a housing that’s UL listed for environments with flammable gases, combustible dust, and ignitable fibers. It is UL listed for use in Class I, Divisions 1 and 2, Groups B, C, and D; Class II, Divisions 1 and 2, Groups E, F, and G; and Class III, Divisions 1 and 2 hazardous locations. The housing also meets NEMA 4X for use in washdown environments with splashing water, corrosive liquid, and dust. Install the threaded probe directly into tanks, pipelines, and other process components to turn heating equipment on or off at a specified temperature. Set actuation points with the adjustment dial.

Switch with one actuation point has one SPDT (single pole, double throw) relay. The relay can be set to turn one circuit from off to on (normally open) or from on to off (normally closed).

Switch with two actuation points has two SPDT (single pole, double throw) relays. Each relay can be set to turn one circuit from off to on (normally open) or from on to off (normally closed).

Turn heating equipment on or off in environments with flammable gases, combustible dust, and ignitable fibers, such as chemical plants, refineries, and grain elevators. The switch housing is UL listed for use in Class I, Divisions 1 and 2, Groups B, C, and D; Class II, Divisions 1 and 2, Groups E, F, and G; and Class III, Divisions 1 and 2 hazardous locations. It also meets NEMA 4X for use in washdown environments with splashing water, corrosive liquid, and dust. Switches have a probe on a cable for remote temperature readings. Set actuation points with the adjustment dial.

Switch with one actuation point has one SPDT (single pole, double throw) relay. The relay can be set to turn one circuit from off to on (normally open) or from on to off (normally closed). The probe has 1/2 NPT male threads for installation directly into tanks, pipelines, and other process components. It comes with a bushing that adapts the thread size to 3/4 NPT male.

Switch with two actuation points has two SPDT (single pole, double throw) relays. Each relay can be set to turn one circuit from off to on (normally open) or from on to off (normally closed).

Tested and verified by UL and C-UL for use where explosive dust or gas are present, these switches have an explosion-proof enclosure that meets NEMA 7 and 9 standards for hazardous locations. They are often used to indicate a filter is clogged in a pump or cooling system. When the differential pressure reaches your setpoint, these switches can turn equipment on and off, activate automated controls, or signal alarms. They are single pole, double throw (SPDT) and can be installed to turn one circuit from off to on (normally open) or from on to off (normally closed).

In addition to being UL and C-UL listed, these switches are CE marked, so they also meet European safety standards. All switches are IP and NEMA rated for use outdoors and to protect against some corrosion, dust, and washdowns.

Designed for use in areas where flammable substances are present, these switches are CSA certified for hazardous locations. Mount them through a tank wall. All are rated NEMA 4 for protection from washdowns. All are single pole, double throw (SPDT) and can be installed to turn one circuit from “off” to “on” (normally open) or from “on” to “off” (normally closed).

Safe to use where flammable gases and combustible dust may be present, these switches activate or deactivate when your flow reaches a factory-set level. All are UL listed for hazardous environments. Because their set point is fixed, they’re ready to go, making them easy to install. They actuate when your flowing liquid or gas pushes their paddle into a set position. These switches are single pole, double throw (SPDT) and can turn one device from off to on (normally open) or from on to off (normally closed). They must be mounted horizontally to function accurately.

These switches are calibrated with water and air. They can also be used with other liquids and gases but may not measure accurately if their viscosity is significantly different.
