Dwyer Omega – Series 1640 Differential Pressure Switch, Floating Contact, High/Low Actuation
Product Code: Series 1640
Manufacturer: Dwyer Omega
The unique electric switch design in the Series 1640 Floating Contact Null Switch for High and Low Actuation is another Dwyer Instruments, LLC innovation. The Dwyer® Model 1640 Differential Pressure Switch resembles the high precision large diaphragm Series 1630 switches. However, the Model 1640 is equipped with a single pole, double throw floating contact switch (not snap acting) so it functions as a null switch.
As the diaphragm moves in response to pressure changes, it moves the floating contact to cause switching action at two preset points with no switching action between these points. The “high” circuit will be closed when rising pressure differential reaches the preset level. The “low” circuit will be closed when falling pressure differential reaches the preset level.
