Customers
tell us that this is the best pressure
switch made. The Mercoid D Series is one of the world's
broadest lines of pressure switches. Whatever your application
might be, it is most probable it can be fully satisfied
with a D Series pressure switch.
The D Series has extremely high sensitivity
and great repeatability. The DA Models are equipped with
two external adjustments, one for setting high pressure
operating point, the other for setting low pressure operating
point. Deadband, the difference between high and low setpoints,
is adjustable over the full scale. The DS Models are equipped
with a single external adjustment for setting operating
point only. The deadband is fixed at a factory setting and
cannot be altered in the field. For switches choose between
the snap action switch, hermetically sealed snap action
switch and hermetically sealed mercury switch.
