Technical Specifications / Parameters Parameter Specification Model Fisher 8540 Type Displacer-operated, Magnetic Snap-Action Switch Switching Element Single-Pole, Double-Throw (SPDT) snap switch. Electrical Ratings Typically 15 A @ 125/250/480 VAC; 0.5 A @ 125 VDC. (Confirm with specific product data sheet). Enclosure Ratings Standard: NEMA 4, 7, 9. Explosion-proof for Class I, Division 1, Groups B, C, D; Class II, Division 1, Groups E, F, G. Process Connection Top Mounting: 2-inch or 3-inch NPT or ANSI Flanged. Side Mounting: 1-inch or 1.5-inch NPT or ANSI Flanged. Materials of Construction Body/Chamber: Carbon Steel, 316 Stainless Steel, Alloy 20, Hastelloy C. Displacer: 316 Stainless Steel, Hastelloy C, Teflon®-coated. Internal Parts: 316 Stainless Steel, Alloy 20, Hastelloy C. Pressure Rating Up to ANSI Class 2500 (depending on housing size and material). Temperature Limits Standard Switch: -40°F to +165°F (-40°C to +74°C) High-Temp. Switch: Up to +750°F (+400°C) with extended stem/chamber options. Set Point Accuracy Typically ±0.125 inch (±3.2 mm) of the set level, depending on specific gravity. Specific Gravity Range Typically 0.15 and higher. The minimum specific gravity determines the required displacer length.
