Ex‑DDCM differential pressure switches are suitable for monitoring and controlling differential pressures, for flow monitoring, and for the automatic control of filter systems. A dual‑chamber system with a stainless‑steel bellows or a Perbunan (NBR) diaphragm detects the difference between the two applied pressures. The desired switching pressure can be continuously adjusted within the specified ranges. All differential pressure monitors can also be used in the vacuum range. The switching differential is not adjustable.
The device features a robust housing made of seawater‑resistant aluminium die‑casting (GD Al Si 12). Installation is carried out directly on the pressure line or on a flat surface using two screws Ø 4 mm.
Please observe the pressure connection assignment:
- P (+) = high pressure
- S (–) = low pressure
