Big Hermet Pressure Switch

Brand: SOR Inc

The Big Hermet Pressure Switch is a robust field-mounted instrument. 

The pressure sensing assembly is identical to a conventional Static O-Ring type. The main difference is that the switching element assembly is hermetically sealed in a steel capsule. 

Switching elements are SPDT or DPDT. 

This pressure switch is suitable for a variety of process applications in hazardous locations and hostile environments.

Basic models with standard wetted parts are normally suitable for air, oil, water and non-corrosive process fluids.

Corrosive service and particle user requirements may require optional components.
Features
  • Robust Construction - High cycle rate tolerance, long life, not critical to vibration, protected internal hermetically sealed switching element capsule.
  • Instrument Quality - High resolution of Set Points, high repeatability, narrow dead band, negligible temperature effect, high overrange and proof pressures.
  • Explosion-proof and Hermetically Sealed Switching Element Capsule - Isolates switching elements from corrosive, hostile and hazardous environments and virtually eliminates problems from corrosion.
  • Field Adjustable Set Points - Full range adjustability without disconnecting electrical power while maintaining explosion proof integrity, self-locking adjustment, no special tools required, no-charge factory calibration.
  • Cost Effective - Simple and fast installation without special tools, long service life.
  • Agency Listings/Certification - Select models with GOST R, RTN, SIL, UL/CSA, TestSafe (SAA). Meets most code and customer requirements.
  • Safety Certified to IEC 61508 (SIL) - SOR products are certified to IEC 61508 for non-redundant use in SIL1 and SIL2 Safety Instrumented Systems for most models. 
  • For more details or values applicable to a specific product, see the Safety Integrity Level Quick Guide (Form 1528).
  • Built-In Quality - Rigid quality standards maintained from raw material to finished product.
