Pressure Switch

An adjustable hydraulic pressure switch is a precision control device that monitors hydraulic system pressure and changes electrical state when a defined set point is reached. The WX adjustable hydraulic pressure switch is engineered specifically for rugged mobile and industrial hydraulic systems that need reliable high-pressure control in a compact footprint. With adjustable set points from 50 to 5000 PSI and a narrow 3–10% differential, the WX series delivers accurate, repeatable switching even in circuits that see frequent pressure spikes. Rated up to 5000 PSI maximum operating pressure with 15,000 PSI proof pressure, it is well suited for demanding hydraulic applications where safety margins and uptime are critical. Each WX adjustable high pressure switch uses Nason’s proven snap-action mechanism and long-life elastomer diaphragm to maintain stable operation over a typical life of one million cycles. Standard zinc-plated steel construction resists corrosion in harsh environments, with optional brass, nickel-plated, 303 stainless, or 316 stainless steel bodies for added durability or media compatibility.

Space-efficient high-pressure design

The WX adjustable hydraulic pressure switch delivers full high-pressure performance—up to 5000 PSI—in a compact housing that fits easily into crowded manifolds and hydraulic power units. Its small footprint and integrated connection options help simplify installation and service in tight high-pressure layouts.

Precision snap-action performance

A piston-driven mechanism actuates a snap-action switch element, providing a crisp change of state right at the set point instead of the slow “creep” typical of conventional designs. The 3–10% differential and tested million-cycle life help prevent nuisance cycling and support long-term accuracy in demanding hydraulic duty.

Extensive configuration & adjustability

Five adjustable pressure ranges from 50 to 5000 PSI, plus rising or falling actuation options, let you define exactly when the switch reacts in your circuit. Multiple port threads, circuit forms (SPST-NO, SPST-NC, SPDT), and electrical connectors turn the WX into a flexible adjustable hydraulic switch platform that can be tailored to each machine.

Rugged, USA-built reliability

WX switches are engineered and assembled in Nason’s U.S. facility and built to NEMA 4 and 13 environmental ratings for use in tough mobile and industrial environments. Robust construction, Buna-N sealing, and 100% factory testing provide dependable high-pressure performance over a typical life of more than one million cycles.

If you are looking for a company that always goes ABOVE AND BEYOND to meet the needs and goals of your customers, it’s Nason. The team’s objectives and outstanding business practices are reflected in their dedication and commitment to the success of a project. Nason consistently performs at exceptional service levels, which is why they are easily our first choice.
Nason presented information with the perfect blend of verbal, visual, and HANDS-ON content. The large number of sample products allowed me to identify an immediate opportunity for one of my customers and immediately coordinate the shipping of samples to get Nason parts in my customer’s hands. I wish all vendor training was done as well as Nason’s!
Nason manufactures cylinders to each customer’s specifications. They ensure all of their customers get exactly what they need for each application. They are a small company, so you always get PERSONALIZED ATTENTION. Any application where I have a customer that wants to do something outside of the box and they need something right away I go to Nason.
Nason has become our cylinder brand of choice for several reasons. The LH cylinder offers a durable, heavy-duty design, while competitive delivery times help keep projects moving efficiently. Their easy-to-source 3D models simplify and SPEED UP DESIGN WORK, and their ability to modify standard products cost-effectively gives us added flexibility when needed.

Nason produces HIGH-QUALITY cylinders at a very competitive price. Everyone is working with a tight budget and an even tighter timeframe. Every bit of savings is valuable. Nason is also willing to produce small quantities of non-standard components to satisfy a customer’s needs and requirements. And I have never had an issue with defective quality of workmanship in a cylinder that we’ve purchased.
Nason cylinders are solutions built to fit a design, not force a design to fit the cylinder. They can tailor products to meet specific application needs and even redesign competitive cylinders to perform better, without the high custom price tag. The key thing with Nason is they design high-quality cylinders that are built to last, and they are GOOD PARTNERS throughout the design process. Their turnaround time is also one of the best I’ve seen.
Prospective clients of Nason should know that they are easy to work with, dependable, transparent and willing to provide the BEST POSSIBLE SOLUTION for your needs. Their sales and engineering team use their expertise to answer any questions/concerns, provide viable feedback and be hands-on during design changes or upcoming R&D projects.
