HIGH CURRENT PRESSURE SWITCH
24 October 2012
When the Oregon Coast Aquarium needed a reliable pressure switch for its Ozone Filtration system, they turned to the World Magnetics range of reliable switches...
The USA manufacturer, represented exclusively in the UK by Variohm EuroSensor, supplied its DesignFlex PSF103 high current pressure switch to monitor the pressure within the critical filtration system that supplies safe water to the many residents of the Aquarium. One such resident is the rescued Sea Otter pup, Schuster, pictured.
The modular Designflex switch series has a wide range of standard options for mounting and porting, and is also easily customised for application specific features. With a choice of polyurethane and Teflon diaphragms, these options include field adjustable set point, controllable hysteresis for precise deadband setting, and factory calibrated versions for tamperproof use as well as full military spec’ versions. The range is reported to be characterised by long working life and high reliability.
The full DesignFlex range includes ultra sensitive pressure, vacuum and differential pressure switches covering a pressure range from 0.1" H20 to 60psi (0.25 to 4137mbar).
