Endress+Hauser 'Thermophant T' Temperature Switches
Endress+Hauser announces the new Thermophant T (temperature switch) and Ceraphant T (pressure switch) "twin" electronic switches that are intended for applications in factory automation, machine tools, energy, as well as the traditional process industries of chemical, food and beverage, pharmaceutical, and water treatment.

New Thermophant T is an electronic switch designed for temperature measurement in gases, vapors, and liquids. New Ceraphant T is an electronic switch designed for absolute and gauge pressure measurement. Both switches allow for quick and safe process connections with unique adaptors covering all common process connections.

These versatile “twin” switches were developed for the factory automation market for applications including: fluidics, poor filter detection, vacuum for pickup and transfer product, hydraulic accumulators, injection molding machines, press machines, automotive welding pressure, machine coolant, pump run dry, transmission systems, construction machinery, and fire-extinguishing systems.The switches have the capability to provide the functionality of an electronic switch (PNP output) and a transmitter (analog 4-20 mA) in a single, compact device; thus lowering installation costs. This is achieved with a single process connection.

The design of the switches provides many benefits starting with a rugged stainless steel housing (AISI 316L) which provides resistance against chemical corrosion and mechanical abrasion.Also unique is the backlit digital display that both switches feature. This display provides excellent readability and 14 segments for the following engineering units: bar, psi, MPa, kPa, °C, °F. An unexpected feature is that all units are converted automatically; this is unique to the market. The electronics used in the design of these twin switches were developed according to international standards IEC61508 / SIL2, which allow for the highest quality in operation.
