The ALCO PS3 is a Pressure Switch with fixed switch-point 
settings. 
Features 
Maximum Operating Pressure up to 43 bar  
Test Pressure up to 48 bar 
Standard factory settings from stock in small volumes 
High and low pressure switches  
High temperature version with snubber for direct  
compressor mounting (Range 6) 
Direct mounting reduces the number of joints and thus 
avoiding potential leakage 
Precise setting and repeatability 
IP 65 protection if used with the new PS3-Nxx and PS3-
Lxx cables with plug (acc. EN 175301-803), no additional 
gasket required (molded into plug) 
Customer specific versions in multipacks, minimum order 
quantity 100 Stück 
Options 
For direct mounting on a pressure connection (free 
standing) or with a capillary tube 
Direct compressor head mounting with high temperature 
bellows and snubber:  
 
-  reduces the number of joints 
 
-  avoids potential leakage 
 
-  saves high cost of flexible hose 
TÜV approved versions for high and low pressure 
Micro-switch for narrow pressure differentials 
Gold plated contacts for low voltage/current applications 
Cables with plug PS3-Nxx/PS3-Lxx not included; to be 
ordered separately (see page 8 for details)

Introduction 
PS3 are equipped with a SPDT snap action contact, switching 
from 1-2 to 1-4 on rising pressure and from 1-4 to 1-2 on falling 
pressure (see diagram). The PS3 is factory preset according to 
customers specification and is not adjustable. Several models 
are available: 
 
Low pressure switch, with automatic or manual reset 
High pressure switch, with automatic or manual reset  
TÜV approved safety high pressure limiter with automatic 
reset 
TÜV approved safety high pressure cut-out, with internal or 
external manual reset 
 
TÜV approval for pressure switches can be reached either by 
using a double diaphragm (Pressure range 1-5) which acts in a 
fail-safe mode or by a single pressure element (Bellows, 
Pressure range 6) which is able to resists to > 2 Mio. cycles 
between 50% and 100% of the maximum operating pressure  
(see 4.6.1 of EN 12263).
