Switch to ABLE for Temperature & Pressure!
ABLE Instruments & Controls have recently introduced a number of new temperature, pressure and differential switches to their range. Safety considerations are often the determining factor when specifying an industrial pressure or temperature switch. ABLE's recently redesigned 120 series is suitable for situations where potentially explosive or highly corrosive atmospheres exist. The 120 series is manufactured for use worldwide and as such has hazardous area approvals that meet the requirements of CENELEC (explosion proof and intrinsically safe), UL, SAA, CSA and FM.
ABLE have designed the 120 series to be IP66 as standard hence applications include chemical plants, refineries, drill rigs, pipelines, coal and grain dust areas. Measurement capability is comprehensive allowing temperature switching between -115 to 340°C and pressure switching between full vacuum and 344 Bar. The 120 series also includes some ultra low-pressure sensors designed for testing applications such as furnace drafts, tank blanketing and low gas purge lines.
In addition units may have one or two switches with high switch ratings of up to 30 amp 300 VAC, allowing heavy machinery such as pumps to be wired directly to the switch without the requirement for additional auxiliary relays. All sensors are available in a variety of materials including Stainless Steel, Brass, Viton, Buna-N, Monel, Tantalum, Hastelloy B and C, whilst accessories such as thermowells are available from stock.
