SQUARE D LAL36350 Circuit Breaker, 350A, 3 Pole, 600VAC, Lug

Square D LAL36350 pressure switch is used to monitor and control pressure levels within equipment or systems. It accurately detects pressure changes for optimal operation, preventing overpressure and safeguarding equipment. This pressure switch is utilised in manufacturing, automation and HVAC applications to maintain desired pressure ranges.

Working Mechanism:

• When the pressure surpasses a predetermined threshold, the pressure switch's mechanism is activated.
• The switch's diaphragm actuation mechanism reacts to changes in pressure, triggering further action.
• As the diaphragm moves, the SPDT contact configuration switches position.
• This contact position change either opens or closes an electrical circuit.
• The alteration in the circuit's state prompts the system to respond accordingly. For instance, it might initiate equipment shutdown or activate warning alarms.
• When pressure returns to an acceptable range, the pressure switch resets itself.
• With the reset, the pressure switch reinstates the electrical circuit, allowing the system to resume its normal operation.

Features:

• It features an adjustable instantaneous trip for precise customisation of circuit protection thresholds.
• This pressure switch has 3-pole, 3-phase and thermal-magnetic trip protection for enhanced safety from electric hazards.
• It comes with line & load lug terminals for easy connection.
• This Square D circuit breaker has a current rating of 350A, voltage rating of 600VAC / 250 VDC and a maximum interrupt current rating of 42kA at 240VAC.
