Flame-proof ATEX/IECEx approved Series AT3A3000 Photohelic® Switch/Gauges, function as versatile, highly repeatable pressure switches combined with a precise pressure gauge employing the time-proven Magnehelic® gauge design.
The Photohelic® switch/ gauge measures and controls positive, negative or differential pressures of air and compatible gases. Standard models are rated to 25 psig (1.7 bar) with options to 35 psig (2.4 bar) or 80 psig (5.5 bar). Two phototransistor actuated, DPDT relays are included for low/high limit control.
Easy to adjust set point indicators are controlled by knobs located on the gauge face (accessible opening case after de-energizing instrument). Set points can be interlocked to provide variable dead band– ideal for control of fans, dampers, etc.
Gauge reading is continuous and unaffected by switch operation, even during loss of electrical power.
Flame-proof enclosures are available in aluminum with glass window which allows for viewing of set point needles and process pressure.
