Mechanical vs electronic pressure switches: Application areas
Enrico Bossart | Know-howWhen should you choose a mechanical pressure switch and when should you rather decide for an electronic pressure switch? Each switch principle offers advantages, but also has its limitations. Among other things, there are differences in the application areas for …
Mechanical vs. electronic pressure switches: Functionality
Enrico Bossart | Know-howHow do you decide whether to use mechanical pressure switches or electronic pressure switches in your application? Each type of pressure switch has individual advantages, but also its limitations. The main differences in functionality between mechanical and electronic …
When to use electronic pressure switches and pressure sensors
Enrico Bossart | Know-howFor a very long time, mechanical pressure switches were state-of-the-art for control in manufacturing processes. Modern pressure sensors seem to be the answer to the demand for data collection and control, by providing continuous data output about the process pressure. …
Accuracy vs. switch point accuracy of electronic pressure switches
Enrico Bossart | Know-howMany users face difficulties in selecting an electronic pressure switch suitable for their application, due to the differentiation of accuracy and switch point accuracy in many official data sheets. Nevertheless, there is a significant difference between the switch …
