Overview Specifications

Tapflo UK’s TPUK PS1 Low-Pressure VFC Pressure Switch is used to convert pneumatic signals received from a Diaphragm Pump into electrical closure or breaks that can be used to feedback into an electrical control system such as a PLC or BMS. It can also be used to monitor the stroke frequency of the pumps which therefore provides insight into the operation and health of the pump and also enabling a preventative maintenance regime. A stroke to volt free contact (VFC) is available for integration with PLC systems. Simply connect to any Diaphragm Pump via the air exhaust muffler to monitor the pump strokes. TPUK-PS1 must be combined with the muffler type TPUK-MU.
