The specified pressure which may be applied to the sensing element of a transducer without causing a permanent change in the output characteristics.
A test pressure applied to control devices to verify structural integrity. No deformation or excessive leakage is permitted at this pressure and the control element must function normally subsequent to this test. Normal industry standard is 1.5 times (150%) of working pressure. See also "BURSTING PRESSURE" and " MAXIMUM OPERATING PRESSURE."
The maximum momentary pressure, including surges, that a switch can withstand without causing permanent degradation to the switch setpoints. /\ RAC: Room air conditioner.
