Bourdon tube pressure gauge with switch contacts
Description
The model PGS21 switchGAUGE is a combination of a Bourdon tube pressure gauge and either one or two switch contacts. It offers the usual analogue indication, which can be read on-site irrespective of the power supply, and in addition the possibility to switch a potential-free electrical signal.
One or two switch points are factory-set to customer requirements, fixed between 10 and 90 % of the scale range, and indicated on the dial by red mark pointers. Depending on the pointer position, the circuit will be opened or closed. Thus the switchGAUGE can be used actively for process monitoring, for example to monitor the level of a gas cylinder or a hydraulic circuit.
