Suitable for gaseous or liquid fluid systems in hazardous applications, the 703-U and 703-UJ Series of UL-rated, explosion-proof pressure switches have a corrosion-resistant stainless steel construction and UL ratings for hazardous locations, including Class 1: Division 1; Groups A, B, C, D; as well as Class 2: Groups E, F, G.
Units also feature high overpressure capabilities, a NEMA Type 7 explosion-proof rating, and a rugged piston design, enabling these switches to withstand high-pressure spikes, shock, and vibration. The 703-U Series features factory-set fixed pressure, while the 703-UJ features field-adjustable pressure. Designed for easy field adjustment, the 703-UJ also incorporates a tamper-resistant locking mechanism to maintain set point integrity.
Thanks to their durable construction, 703-U/UJ pressure switches boast accuracy and repeatability even in explosive environments. They also guarantee a long service life, thanks to a snap-action electrical switch tested to 1 million cycles.
