What is pressure switches?

A pressure switch is a device that opens or closes an electrical contact when a certain pressure is reached. They are commonly used to monitor and control pressure in fluid power systems, industrial processes, and automotive applications. For instance, they can start or stop a pump based on pressure, provide a warning if pressure exceeds a limit, or control the pressure of compressed air.

What other technologies are related to pressure switches?

pressure switches Competitor Technologies

Pressure transmitters measure pressure and provide a continuous signal, while pressure switches provide a discrete signal at a setpoint, thus they are competitors for pressure measurement and control.
