Abstract

A panel-mountable pressure switch having an external adjustment lever has a mounting bracket with a right-angled flange attached to the switch housing. The bracket has a cam shaft rotatably mounted on the bracket for adjusting the lever position with the end of the shaft extending outwardly through the bracket flange. The panel has a non-circular aperture formed therein and a plurality of tabs formed on the bracket flange are inserted into the aperture and the bracket is rotated to secure the flange against he surface of the panel. A releasable locking tab on the bracket flange snaps into a separate aperture recess formed in the panel to prevent reverse rotation of the bracket and removal without user depression of the locking tab.
