High Pressure Monitoring
01 Jun 2005
Denmark based pressure and temperature product specialist Danfoss A/S haslaunched a new range of high pressure switches, supplementing the established pressure switch family MBC 5100 .
Impossible to visually differentiate from the proven low pressure switches, the new members of the MBC 5100 family for high pressure measurement are designed with a completely new piston to convert the pressure. The pressure conversion by means of a piston enables an extraordinarily long mechanical lifetime of over one million cycles.
Another feature is the extended temperature range, allowing the switch to operate at lower ambient temperatures.
The high pressure switch is typically part of a hydraulic power pack which monitors and triggers alarms for applications such as propulsion, controllable pitch propellers, gears, winches, cranes and anchoring systems.
