The 5550 and 5550G mechanical vibraon
switches provide vibraon protecon for
low- to medium-speed machinery. An inera
sensive mechanism acvates a snap-acon
switch with SPDT output contacts if the vi-
braon exceeds an adjustable setpoint. The
5550 mechanical vibraon switch contacts
can be used to acvate an alarm or iniate
equipment shutdown. The housing is weath-
erproof with an oponal hazardous area
rang. Electrical (remote) reset with start-up
me delay and a second set of SPDT output
contacts to accommodate DPDT needs
(e.g. separate trip and trip light circuits) are
available.
The 5550G uses idencal internal mecha-
nisms, but carries an IECEX rang ideal for
IIC gas group applicaons.
