How Do I Find The Right Pressure Switch?
Selecting a pressure or vacuum switch may seem straightforward, but performance, safety, and system longevity depend heavily on choosing the right one. As Michael F. Horn of Whitman Controls explains, success begins with asking the right questions. From understanding system pressure and set points to evaluating electrical and environmental conditions, the selection process is multi-dimensional. Material compatibility, media port interface, and even special customization requests all play a role in optimizing performance. With Whitman Controls’ deep application knowledge and broad range of rugged, customizable switches, engineers are empowered to build smarter, safer, and more reliable systems—without overengineering or overspending.
