FAQs
What is a DIN socket pressure switch?
A DIN socket pressure switch is a mechanical device that monitors pressure in a system and turns an electrical circuit on or off when a set pressure is reached. It uses a DIN EN 175301 (DIN 43650) connector, which is a common industrial plug designed for quick, secure, and reliable electrical connections. DIN socket pressure switches are widely used in hydraulic systems, air compressors, pumps, and industrial machinery because they are easy to install, durable, and simple to replace when needed.
How do I wire a DIN connector?
To wire a DIN EN 175301 (DIN 43650) connector, first switch off the power to the system. Remove the connector from the pressure switch, open the connector housing, and connect the wires to the correct terminals using the wiring diagram supplied with the switch. Tighten the cable gland to hold the cable securely and help protect it from dust and moisture. Reassemble the connector, attach it to the pressure switch, and check that all connections are secure before restoring power.
