Description
Basic Operation
Case: Base mount, explosion-proof aluminum
alloy housing; meets NEMA 7/IP50 specifi-
cations; Class I, Division 1, Groups C & D;
UL and CSA listed*.
The VS2 Series switches are shock sensitive
mechanisms for shutdown of engine or elec-
tric motor powered equipment. These
Pushing the reset button moves the tripping
latch into a magnetically held position.
A shock/vibration will move the magnet
beyond this holding position, thus freeing
the spring loaded tripping latch to transfer
the contacts and shutdown the machinery
(see dimensional diagrams in the following
pages for visual representation of parts).
switches use a magnetic latch to ensure reli-
able operation. Explosion-proof “EX” mod-
els for hazardous locations are available.
Snap-switches: 2-SPDT snap-switches; 5A
@ 480 VAC;* 2A resistive, 1A inductive,
up to 30 VDC.
Applications
Normal Operating Temperature: -40 to
Ideal for use on engines, pumps, compres-
sors, heat exchangers and pumping units, the
VS2 Series can be used anywhere shutdown
protection from damaging shock/vibration is
desired. Switches are field adjustable to sen-
sitivity required in each application.
140°F (-40 to 60°C).
