Journal highlights the new
indicating switches by
Endress + Hauser
Modern production would be
unimaginable without sensors,
measuring and switching devices to
monitor and control the various process
parameters such as pressure, temperature, flow
and so on. Economic realities demand that
the sensors and monitoring instruments are of
the highest quality, reliable, robust and able to
withstand the harsh industrial environment.
Endress + Hauser understands the
demands of a modern-day process industry
and keeping in mind the diverse requirements
of various process industries, it offers the
state-of-the-art, intelligent, indicating
switches Ceraphant, Thermophant and
Flowphant, for pressure, temperature and
flow respectively.
The new family of indicating switches
come with all stainless steel (AISI 316L)
housing for highest corrosion resistance, a
patented Ceraphire (pure ceramic 99.9 per
cent Al2O3) measuring element, 14-segment
LED display, back-lit LCD display background
of which changes to red on error, 340°
rotatable head for display positioning, high
accuracy, very low response time (< 20 msec),
short over-voltage protection up to 1 kV and
two switch points that can be adjusted either
by push buttons on the housing head or by a
PC through a USB interface.
Ceraphant, Thermophant and Flowphant
are UL, CE, SIL, DESINA approved and are
available for general purpose and hygienic
applications. The pressure switches are
available up to 400 bar and temperature
switches are available up to 150°C measuring
ranges in the engineering unit of your choice.
