Product Description
Pressure Control Switch is used in pneumatic systems to monitor pressure and provide an output when a specific pressure is achieved, as well as to improve operation and safety. This can have a bourdon tube, piston, diaphragm, or membrane that moves or deforms in response to the system's pressure. Pressure Control Switch is very easy to install and simple to operate. A contact, depending on its arrangement, closes or opens the switch with enough force.
