Variohm EuroSensor expands range of pressure switches
Pressure, vacuum and differential pressure switch range grows
after distribution partners acquisition of complementary manufacturers
product lines
Variohm EuroSensor has increased its range of pressure, vacuum
and differential switches following its USA based distribution
partner, World Magnetics Incorporated, recently acquiring two
specialist pressure switch manufacturers to complement its existing
DesignFlex range.
The new product lines from Value Engineered Products Inc. and
Henry G. Dietz Co, Inc. combine to make Variohm's range of standard
and custom designed pressure switches one of the largest available
from a UK source; with cost competitive solutions for applications
as far reaching as medical equipment to agricultural machinery
and from food industry to aerospace.
The DesignFlex range includes ultra sensitive pressure, vacuum
and differential pressure switches with a wide variety of housing,
mounting, porting, diaphragm and set point configurations covering
a pressure range from 0.1" H20 to 50" H20 (0.25 to
125 mbar). Application specific features on certain models include
field adjustable set point, controllable hysteresis (deadband),
factory calibrated versions for tamperproof use and full military
spec' versions. The range is characterised by exceptionally long
working life and extremely high reliability.
Value Engineered Products manufactures fluid-actuated switches
for sensing vacuum , differential, and dual differential pressure.
With fluid types that cover hydraulic oils, ethylene glycols,
aircraft fuels, Freon, lubricating oils, water and air, and many
more, the range includes diaphragm elements for sensing low pressures
down to 0.5 in Hg, and piston elements for high pressure applications
for pressures up to 2650 PSIG.
Dietz air pressure switches are aimed at heavy industrial and
extreme environmental uses. With a range of 0.05" to 40"
H2O, the 170D model is an ultra-low differential pressure switch
for applications such as trains, ships and construction equipment
where shock and vibration resistance is of paramount importance.
Dietz also produce an ultra sensitive pressure switch for extreme
environment forced air systems, filters, blowers and exhaust
fans up to 2500 fpm.
Variohm offer a complete design consultancy service across these
new products that provides customers with specialist technical
support from application concept through to supply and after-sales
support
