WIKA contact pressure gauges: Switching and indicating with a single instrument

Wherever the process pressure has to be indicated locally and, at the same time, limit values must be monitored, contact pressure gauges find their application. The switch contacts make or break the circuit dependent upon the pointer position of the indicating measuring instrument. If the reading is significantly above or below a set value, they trigger an alarm, hence also the term “alarm contact”. Contact pressure gauges are also suitable for starting, stopping or switching processes.

What is the function of a three- or five-way valve block in a pressure gauge?

These pressure-equalizing valves – with integrated shut-off, purge, and vent valves – enable the pressure gauge to be vented on one or both sides, and for the supply line to be purged.
