Pressure Measurement & Control


WIKA introduces innovative pressure switches

July 2011 Pressure Measurement & Control

At this year’s Hannover Messe, WIKA introduced an innovative product family of electronic switches for fluid technology in machine building. The new industrial instruments measure and control pressure, temperature and level and have an identical ‘look and feel’.

The new switches have high functionality with three-key operation, tactile feedback and a clear menu structure that ensures commissioning is smooth and trouble-free. Set-up parameters can also be checked quickly and are displayed on a 14-segment LED display with 9 mm characters. The display and housing rotate independently, making the parameters and values easy to read, even under difficult conditions. The design is as flexible as it is robust and through the numerous mounting possibilities and high ingress protection can be installed in virtually any environment.

The model PSD-30, TSD-30 and LSD-30 switches are available in various country-specific ­versions for use around the world.
