A. Product Overview
The Baumer CNI Adjustable Dead Band Diaphragm Pressure Switch is a heavy-duty industrial pressure switch used for controlling and monitoring pressure in liquid, gas, utility and process applications. It is designed with an adjustable dead band diaphragm mechanism, allowing users to set the switching and reset points as per application requirements.
This pressure switch offers a pressure range from -1 to 0 bar and 0 to 40 bar, making it suitable for vacuum, low pressure and medium pressure applications. It provides 1.0 percent FSR repeatability, helping maintain consistent switching performance in industrial systems.
The Baumer CNI pressure switch is available with 1 or 2 microswitches SPDT, making it suitable for single-stage or dual-stage control applications. It has a switch rating of 15 A at 250 VAC and 0.4 A at 110 VDC, allowing it to be used in control panels, alarms, pump systems, compressors, boilers and process control circuits.
The sensing element is made from AISI 316L stainless steel, which offers good corrosion resistance for industrial media. It is supplied with 3/8 inch and 1/2 inch BSP or NPT process connections, a die cast aluminum housing and IP66 protection class for weatherproof performance in demanding industrial environments.
B. Working Principle
The Baumer CNI Adjustable Dead Band Diaphragm Pressure Switch works on the diaphragm pressure sensing principle. When process pressure enters through the connection port, it acts on the AISI 316L stainless steel diaphragm.
As the pressure increases or decreases, the diaphragm deflects mechanically. This movement is transferred to the internal switching mechanism. When the pressure reaches the set value, the internal SPDT microswitch changes contact position. This switching action can be used to start or stop a pump, activate an alarm, trip a safety circuit or send a signal to a control panel.
The adjustable dead band allows the user to control the difference between the switch activation point and reset point. This helps avoid frequent switching, contact chattering and unnecessary equipment cycling in pressure systems.
In models with 2 microswitches SPDT, two separate switching points can be used for alarm and trip functions, low and high pressure control or staged control operations.
C. Why It Is Used
The Baumer CNI diaphragm pressure switch is used when accurate, reliable and adjustable pressure switching is required in industrial systems. It helps protect equipment from abnormal pressure conditions and supports automatic pressure control.
It is used to detect high pressure, low pressure, vacuum pressure and process pressure changes. The adjustable dead band makes it useful in applications where pressure fluctuation is common and stable switching is required.
The AISI 316L stainless steel diaphragm makes the switch suitable for many industrial fluids and gases. The IP66 die cast aluminum enclosure provides strong protection against dust and water ingress, making it suitable for harsh plant environments.
This pressure switch is preferred in applications where a mechanical switching device is required instead of an electronic pressure transmitter. It is simple to install, easy to set and suitable for long-term industrial operation.
