Differential Pressure Switch

Product Description

The Differential Pressure Switch is engineered to measure and control pressure differences between two points in air systems and non-flammable gases. Designed for reliability and versatility, it is an excellent choice for monitoring filtration systems, maintaining airflow, and safeguarding equipment against pressure fluctuations.

Key Features of pressure differential switches:

• Adjustable Differential Range: The switch supports a pressure range of 0.2 to 2 mbar (20 to 200 Pa), with fine-tuning options to match your requirements.
• SPDT Switching: A Single Pole Double Throw mechanism provides flexibility for various control or alarm applications.
• Durable Design: Encased in a shock-proof, thermoplastic housing with an IP54 rating, it withstands harsh environmental conditions.
• Comprehensive Installation Kit: Includes a PVC grommet for cable entry and an Air Proving Hose Kit for straightforward setup.
• Compact and Lightweight: With a weight of only 0.36 kg, the switch is easy to install even in tight spaces.

Applications:

1. HVAC Systems:

• Monitoring filter conditions to detect blockages.
• Maintaining airflow in ventilation ducts.
• Regulating fan and blower operations.

2. Clean Rooms and Laboratories:

• Maintain pressure stability between zones to support controlled environments.

3. Industrial Processes:

• Monitoring compressors and providing efficient system performance.
• Detecting leaks or blockages in pipelines.

4. Energy Management Systems:

• Improving system efficiency by preventing unnecessary energy consumption due to pressure anomalies.

Benefits:

• Improved System Protection: Prevent damage by detecting and responding to pressure fluctuations promptly.
• Increased Efficiency: Optimise the performance of HVAC systems, clean rooms, and other industrial setups.
• Customisable Settings: Adjust the pressure thresholds to meet the needs of diverse applications.
• Versatile Use: Suitable for a broad range of industries and environments.

FAQ about air differential pressure switches

How does a differential pressure switch work?

A differential pressure switch measures the difference in pressure between two points. When the pressure exceeds or drops below a preset threshold, the switch activates a contact to trigger an alarm or control system.

What is the function of a pressure differential switch?

Its primary function is to monitor pressure changes and respond by activating or deactivating equipment to maintain safe and efficient system performance.

How do you adjust a differential pressure switch?

Adjustments are made using the control knob or dial on the switch. Refer to the product manual for model-specific instructions.

How to test an air pressure switch?

Apply pressure to the switch’s input ports while monitoring its response with a multimeter. A working switch activates its contacts when the pressure threshold is reached.

What is the lifespan of a pressure switch?

With proper maintenance, a high-quality differential pressure switch can last several years. Lifespan varies based on usage frequency and environmental conditions.

What are the symptoms of a bad air pressure switch?

Symptoms include failure to activate or deactivate connected equipment, inaccurate pressure readings, or intermittent operation.
