Applications
Triple approval (UL, cUL and
ATEX) means the Spectra 12 meets
the demanding requirements of
hazardous locations. It can be used in
a wide variety of applications where
space is at a premium. Ambient
temperatures can be as low as -58°F
(-50°C) or as high as 203°F (95°C).
Instrument Panels Rotating Equipment
All metal wetted parts comply with
NACE MR-0175. The stainless steel
design and enclosure type 4X rating
assure long-term performance in the
toughest applications.

TECHNOLOGY
At the heart of the Spectra 12 is a Belleville spring assembly. The spring is
Bellville disc a small conical washer that transfers motion to a hermetically sealed 1 or 5
amp microswitch. Its ‘snap-action’ provides fast, positive contact transfer. The
Belleville spring ‘snaps over’ when pressure is applied and ‘snaps back’ upon
pressure release.
Advantages:
• Set point stability: The switch performs under challenging environmental
conditions such as vibration and temperature changes. In addition,
minimal movement of components reduces sensor fatigue thereby
Pressure increasing life and accuracy.
• High over-pressures: The Belleville spring mechanism limits "over -travel",
Bellville disc actuated extending pressure limits.
• Resistance to vibration: Preloading of the electrical switch helps reduce
‘contact chatter.’
• Maximum life: The Belleville spring enhances cycle life with a short ‘stroke’
movement to minimize fatigue.
• Small size: Belleville springs are simple in appearance, but can deliver a
heavy load with a relatively small deflection, contributing to an overall
compact product envelope.
• Deadbands: The Belleville is a ‘negative-rate’ snap acting device, so on-off
Pressure deadband values are wider at the low end of the range. To minimize
deadbands, select a model with a set point at the higher end of the range
whenever possible.
