Switch Electrical Specifications:

See Bulletin: ELECIOM_140

Mid-West Instrument switches are mechanically adjustable allowing customer to set the switch within a defined adjustment span of range of the instrument. Mid-West can also pre-set switch set point(s) upon customer request. All Switches are CE marked per EU Low Voltage and RoHS Directive. Hazardous location and transmitter configurations come with a ½” FNPT conduit interface.

The Mid-West Instrument Model 140 indicating / non-indicating differential pressure transmitter is a 2 wire loop powered microprocessor based 4-20 mA transmitter. The magnetic angle sensor & electronics senses the angle (relative to the transmitter sensor) of the magnet which moves linearly in the bore. Each transmitter is individually calibrated to the gauge using an 11 point calibration linearization technique. Transmitter options are not CE marked.

  • No Power required to operate switches
  • 1-2 Independent adjustable Switches
  • 4-20 ma Transmitter (8-28 VDC Loop Power) 2% Accuracy (20%-100% of scale, Ascending)
  • Available Switch Output Options
    • SPDT 3W, 0.25 Amp, 125 VAC/VDC
    • SPST 25W, 0.5 Amp, 230 VAC/VDC (Normally Open)
  • Electrical Enclosures Weather-Resistant, NEMA 4X /IP 66
