APW10 absolute pressure switch stainless steel version WIKA

Description

The APW10 absolute pressure switch stainless steel version from WIKA is used in pressure measurement of gaseous and liquid media.

These high quality absolute pressure switches have been developed specifically for safety critical applications. High product usability and ISO 9001 manufacturing ensure reliable monitoring of your plant. In production, the switches are tracked every step of the way by quality assurance software and then 100% tested. All wetted materials are stainless steel as standard.

To ensure the most flexible operation, the absolute pressure switches are equipped with micro switches that allow direct switching of electrical loads up to 250 V, 20 A.

For lower switching power ratings, for example for PLC applications, argon-filled micro switches with gold-plated contacts can be chosen as an option.

Using a diaphragm measuring system, the APW model of absolute pressure switch is extremely robust and provides optimum operating characteristics and highest measurement performance with a repeatability of less than 1% of the span.
