Product images are representative only. Actual product may vary.
The Allen-Bradley 836-C7 is a Style C electromechanical pressure control switch in an open (unenlosed) configuration, designed for integration directly into control panels or enclosures where the switch mechanism is mounted without its own housing. With an operating range of 4–150 PSI and an SPDT snap-action switching mechanism, the 836-C7 provides accurate, reliable pressure sensing for industrial fluid and pneumatic control circuits.
Its independently adjustable range and differential make it highly configurable for both standard and custom setpoint requirements, while the open style design allows for flexible OEM and panel mounting options where a separate NEMA enclosure is not needed.

Compatibility & Notes
The 836-C7 is the open-style variant of the Allen-Bradley Bulletin 836-C7A (which includes a NEMA Type 1 aluminum enclosure). For applications requiring environmental protection, consider the 836-C7A enclosed version. This unit is sold new. Verify pressure range, differential requirements, and mounting dimensions for your specific application before ordering.
