# ANSI/IEEE pressure switch no symbol

Canonical URL: https://eloragrid.ai/symbols/ansi-pressure-switch-no
Publisher: Elora Grid
Updated: 2026-10-14
Lookup label: PS NO
Drawing use: Schematic
Reference families: IEEE / ANSI, Manufacturer

## Symbol convention

Convention: IEEE / ANSI
Form: Autodesk IEEE-oriented Pressure and Temperature Switches functional form
Autodesk explicitly publishes this block under IEEE Symbol Preview. The counterpart is the matching functional concept; no equivalence of every detailed standard graphic is asserted.
Related representation: [Pressure switch NO](https://eloragrid.ai/symbols/pressure-switch-no)

IEEE-oriented graphical reference for pressure switch no, with public vendor evidence and drawing-reading notes.

## What it represents

The pressure-operated NO form links a contact state to a documented pressure condition. The process direction and reset differential must be supplied separately because an open reference contact does not establish a high- or low-pressure threshold.
This is a convention-specific lookup based on the publisher's IEEE-labelled preview. The geometry here is independently drawn to explain the connection or operation; it is not a certified reproduction of the standard graphic.

## How to read it

- Identify whether rising or falling pressure produces operation.
- Read the selected library and the project legend together. A vendor block identifier is meaningful within its named library and is not a universal standard-symbol code.

## Information to show or reference

- Name pressure service
- State operate/reset conditions
- Reference terminal pair

## Important distinction

Pressure process action and NO contact reference state are different pieces of information.
