Gauge Pressure Switches
Gauge pressure switches are used to monitor and control the pressure of a fluid (liquid or gas) in a system relative to atmospheric pressure and are used in industrial and commercial applications to automate equipment, provide safety interlocks, or trigger alarms based on specific pressure conditions.
Precision for Reliability & Uptime
Gauge pressure switches are precision mechanical devices designed to monitor and control pressure relative to atmospheric pressure in industrial processes. Utilizing diaphragms or pistons as sensing elements, they actuate electrical contacts at predetermined set points.
Their rugged, reliable construction ensures consistent operation under harsh conditions, providing accurate detection and switching without external power. Highly valued for ensuring safety, gauge pressure switches maintain optimal process conditions, triggering alarms or equipment shutdowns to prevent system overpressure or underpressure conditions.
These switches are commonly used in oil and gas production, chemical processing, refining, power generation, and HVAC systems, and they support important functions like compressor control, pump cycling, and pipeline pressure regulation. Certified models for hazardous environments (ATEX, IECEx, FM, CSA) are designed to work safely in explosive atmospheres, protecting people and equipment while providing precise, reliable pressure control.
