Compact Switch/Gage Monitors Pressure, Actuates Alarm

This portable pressure monitor alarm utilizes a  Series MP Mini-Photohelic® differential pressure switch/gage to monitor either positive pressure, as in a clean room, or negative pressure, as in a fume or paint spray hood. It sounds an alarm, both audible and visual, when pressure exceeds either a preset high or low limit. The unit can be used temporarily to verify proper operation after initial installation. Or it can be mounted permanently for continuous monitoring. In applications where a single fixed alarm pressure level is sufficient, a differential pressure switch can be used instead.
