AUTO ELECTRICAL SWITCHES AND SENDERS

SWITCHES and SENDERS

Sensors for Instrumentation For reliable measurement

Our sensors for instrumentation enable the monitoring of important data for reliable vehicle operation and long service life. Crucial readings include information on pressure, temperature and rpm, as well as speed and fuel level. Vehicle safety may be impacted and serious engine damage could occur if defined thresholds are not met or are exceeded.

Lever-Type Senders

Lever-type senders are used to measure the fuel level in connection with an electrical display unit. Some senders are grounded. Senders without grounding have a separate ground connection.

Pressure Senders

Pressure senders are used to measure gas or fluid pressure in connection with an electrical display unit. Some senders are grounded. Senders without grounding have a separate ground connection.

Pressure senders can also be equipped with a warning contact to signal the reaching of a pressure level limit.

Pressure Switches

Pressure switches are used to monitor the pressure of gases and fluids by making contact when a pre-defined limiting value is exceeded or not reached. Some switches are grounded. Switches without grounding have a separate ground connection.

Adjustable Pressure Switch

* Medium: Air or Liquid
* Max Pressure: 1.0Mpa
* Adjustable Range: 1.0bar ~ 10.0bar
* Pressure Setpoint in Factory: 2.0Bar
* Temperature: -5C ~ +60C
(If more than 60C, please connect with capillary)
* Work Voltage: N.O 220V/AC N.C 48V/AC/DC
* Max Current: 500mA
* Max Power: N.O 100VA N.C 24VA
* Protect Grade: IP54

RPM and Speed Senders

RPM and speed senders are used to measure and display the RPM and speed of engines and gears in connection with an electrical display unit. Some senders are grounded. Senders without grounding have a separate ground connection.

Temperature Senders

Temperature senders are used to measure different media in connection with an electrical display unit. Some senders are grounded. Senders without grounding have a separate ground connection.

Temperature senders can also be equipped with a warning contact to signal the reaching of a temperature level limit.

Temperature Switches

Temperature switches are used to monitor the temperature of different media by making contact when a pre-defined limiting value is exceeded or not reached. Some switches are grounded. Switches without grounding have a separate ground connection.
The temperature switch types in the product range include:

- Type A: 1.2–3 W, common ground
- Type B: 100/120 W, insulated return

Tubular-Type Senders

Tubular-type senders are used to measure the fuel level in connection with an electrical display unit. Some senders are grounded. Senders without grounding have a separate ground connection.

Tubular-type senders can also be equipped with a warning contact to signal the reaching of a fuel level limit (reserve) or for continual measuring.
