Will Extreme Temperatures Cause Transducer Failures?
Excessively high temperatures are a common source of pressure transducer difficulties.
Like most other electronic equipment, pressure transducers are effected by temperature, shock and vibrations. They consist of numerous components that only function within specified temperature ranges. Transducers exposed to temperatures exceeding those ranges during the assembly process can be adversely affected.

New Technology Eliminates Arc Flash Hazard
Pre-configuration of current switches can help eliminate arc flash danger and enable faster installation
Current switches, also known as current sensors, are used to monitor the operation of motors, pumps, fans, compressors, lights, and other equipment. Two common types of current switches currently available are fixed point and adjustable set point switches. Fixed current switches are designed with a single pre-determined set point and are beneficial because they are installed on cold circuits requiring no adjustment.
