Purpose of using 16-09155:
| Purpose | Description |
|---|---|
| 1. Safety Protection | Prevents system damage by shutting off equipment if pressure gets too high or too low. Example: Disables a compressor if oil pressure drops. |
| 2. Automatic Control | Turns devices on or off based on pressure. Example: Turns on a fan or pump when pressure reaches a certain point. |
| 3. Monitoring System Health | Sends warning signals if pressure is abnormal — helps detect leaks, blockages, or component failures. |
| 4. Reducing Manual Intervention | Eliminates the need for constant human monitoring — automates system behavior. |
| 5. Triggering Alarms or Lights | Activates dashboard warnings in trucks or industrial panels if a system isn't operating within safe pressure limits. |
Signs of a Bad Multi-Purpose Pressure Switch 16-09155:
| Sign | What It Might Mean |
|---|---|
| 1. System doesn’t respond to pressure changes | Switch is stuck open or closed; internal contacts have failed. |
| 2. Warning lights stay on or don’t activate | Electrical failure or incorrect pressure readings sent to the control system. |
| 3. Intermittent operation / flickering behavior | Loose wiring, internal contact wear, or unstable pressure readings. |
| 4. Constant activation / deactivation of pumps or compressors | Switch is triggering at the wrong pressure due to calibration drift or internal failure. |
| 5. System won’t start or shuts down unexpectedly | Switch falsely indicates a dangerous pressure condition. |
| 6. No continuity across terminals (when it should be present) | Internal switch mechanism has failed (can be tested with a multimeter). |
| 7. Leaking air or fluid from the switch body | Physical damage or worn seals; may also affect switch accuracy. |
| 8. Physical damage or corrosion | Visual signs of cracked housing, rusted terminals, or damaged connector pins. |
