Hi Steve,

I think the color can vary from supplier to supplier so color might not be a good way to I.D. a switch. Note the following:

... ... 081A is a 0.9 bar swt, grey and is normally OPEN

... ... 081C is a 0.3 bar swt, brown and is normally CLOSED

... ... 081E is a 1.8 bar swt, white and is nomally OPEN

The switches I've seen had the bar rating stamped on the side of one hex face. Also a 0.3B swt will have ohmmeter continuity between the electrical contact and the swt body with NO pressure applied. The 0.9B & 1.8B will show meter infinity.

Regards, John
