The Allen-Bradley 836T-T351JX81X9X7 Electromechanical Pressure Switch is a state-of-the-art piece of pressure control equipment that is intended to automate the control of the applications of the pressure and pressure media inside a monitored vessel, a section of pipe, or a storage tank. It comes from the factory in a Type 1, 4, or 13 enclosure, and it is specifically designed for industrial use. The Allen-Bradley 836T-T351JX81X9X7 Electromechanical Pressure Switch is typically employed on industrial plant floors where high humidity, occasional splashes of water, significant quantities of dust, and other common environmental pollutants are found. The thick and durable metallic cover of the device coupled with its military-grade rubber isolation materials are key factors in giving it high levels of environmental protection in these kinds of settings. This pressure switch features a couple of double-pole, double-throw electrical contacts which are interchangeable and replaceable with contact block spare parts when necessary.

The Allen-Bradley 836T-T351JX81X9X7 Electromechanical Pressure Switch is able to operate with a maximum voltage of 600 Volts AC between its contacts, and it is able to withstand a maximum inrush current of 5 Amps. The basic operation of this pressure switch involves constantly monitoring the real-time pressure value in a particular part of the application process that is considered to be of special importance for the user's application. When the instant value of the pressure reaches the user-configurable setpoint value, the Allen-Bradley 836T-T351JX81X9X7 Electromechanical Pressure Switch will automatically change the status of its electrical contacts from open to closed and vice versa. The users can then employ this status change to their advantage within the application, for example, when using the contact as a discrete input in a PLC system.
