A robust mechanical pressure switch that opens or closes an electrical contact when a user-defined setpoint is crossed. The setpoint and reset point are independently adjustable, allowing technicians to tune the unit precisely to the application start-stop logic.
Frequently Asked Questions
How is the switching point adjusted? Each unit features an accessible adjustment screw or scale that allows the operator to set the desired switching pressure within the unit range.
What is the difference between this and a pressure transmitter? A switch provides a discrete on/off contact at a setpoint, while a transmitter outputs a continuous analog signal proportional to pressure.
Is it suitable for hydraulic systems? Yes. Piston-style configurations are particularly well suited to high-pressure hydraulic circuits and pulsating media.
