Opposed Piston Differential Pressure Switch

Brand: Cameron

The Opposed Piston differential pressure switch is essentially two static o-ring type pressure sensors connected at opposite ends of a common piston shaft.

Housings are weathertight or explosion proof. Switching elements are SPDT or DPDT.
