Outline of Settings [Measurement mode] Power is supplied. The product code is displayed for approximately 3 sec. after supplying power. : Within approximately 0.2 second after power-on, the switch starts. [Measurement mode] Detects the pressure after power is supplied, and indicates the display and switch operating status.
Pressure Setting Default settings When the pressure exceeds the set value, the switch will be turned on. When the pressure falls below the set value by the amount of hysteresis or more, the switch will be turned off. The default setting is to turn on the pressure switch when the pressure reaches the centre of the atmospheric pressure and upper limit of the rated pressure range.
