Here's a diagram for the pressure switch on the DeWalt D55146 compressor:

The two large terminals on the bottom of the switch are for power in and power out. The power in terminal should be connected to the compressor's motor starter, while the power out terminal should be connected to the compressor motor.

The two small terminals on the top of the switch are for the pressure sensor. The pressure sensor is typically mounted on the side of the compressor tank, and it sends a signal to the pressure switch to turn the compressor on and off as needed.

The adjustment screw on the front of the switch is used to set the pressure at which the switch will turn the compressor on and off. Turning the screw clockwise will increase the pressure setting, while turning it counterclockwise will decrease it.

It's important to follow the manufacturer's instructions and safety guidelines when working with pressure switches and compressors. If you're unsure about how to properly install or adjust the pressure switch, it's recommended to consult with a qualified professional or contact DeWalt customer service for assistance.
