    General description The Edwards IS16K Vacuum Interlock Switch is designed for applications where the electrical circuits within the vacuum chamber must be de-energised when the vacuum system is let up to atmosphere. Typical applications would be the interlocking of H.T. and R.F. power supplies on vacuum coating systems. The interlocking switch consists of a positive break microswitch operated by a snap action diaphram to ensure rapid separation of the microswitch contacts.
