Electrical Pressure Switch

A pressure switch is a device that operates an electrical contact when a preset fluid pressure is reached. The switch makes an electrical contact on either pressure rise or pressure fall from a certain preset pressure level. Pressure switches are in a wide range of industrial and residential applications like HVAC systems, well pumps, furnaces, etc.

An electrical pressure switch uses an electronic pressure sensor to measure the change in inlet pressure. They have digital displays to set up the switching function. The switch point can be manufacturer set or can be programmed on-site according to the application requirements. Switch point, output signals, hysteresis, delay time, etc. are some functions that can be adjusted by the user according to the requirements.

Electrical pressure switches are suitable for automated and controlled equipment systems that require programmable function, digital display, flexibility, accuracy, ingress protection, and stability.
