Model IPS Semiconductor
Gas Indicating Pressure Switch
DESCRIPTION
FEATURES
The IPS Indicating Pressure Switch is designed to provide economical pressure monitoring with setpoint indication of the high purity, toxic and corrosive gases used
in the semiconductor manufacturing industry.
●● Operates low voltage audible/visual alarms and relays
t In addition to providing accurate (±2% of span) indication of gas pressure, this 2 inch diameter instrument incorporates a magnetically actuated, hermetically
sealed reed switch capable of operating low voltage annunciators, lights or relays. When used with the appropriate pull-up or pull-down resistors, the monitor can be
connected to the input port of a microprocessor or to a
logic network. It may also be used as an input to a programmable controller.
t Moving the index on the front dial to the desired set
point sets the switch. A small magnet fastened to the indicating pointer actuates the switch. A magnetic latch on
the switch permits the switch to remain “on” or “off” after
the pointer passes the operating point, without restraint
on the indicating pointer.
t The switch action is configurable to close on increasing pressure (HA) or close on decreasing pressure (LA).
In both models, the user can change the switch action
by removing the front bezel, loosening the pointer screw,
and flipping the pointer over. The switch action will be
noted on the tail of the pointer.
●● No switch input power required
●● Provides input to logic networks, microprocessors
and PLCs
●● Intrinsically safe apparatus when connected to
approved barrier
●● Available in low mount and center-back mount
configuration
●● Available with face seal fittings, tube stub or NPT
connections
●● Switch setpoint adjustments accessible from front of
monitor
●● Switch setting may be adjusted on or off-line
●● User selectable switch action
●● Type 316L stainless steel internal surfaces
●● 10 Ra surface finish on face seal connections
●● Polished stainless steel outer case and window ring
●● Helium leak tested to 10-9 scc/sec
●● Cleaned and packaged for high purity gas
applications, exceeds ANSI B40.1
●● Immune to EMI fields
t The IPS Pressure Switch offers the ease of adjustment and economy that permits field use of several units
covering a variety of pressure range set-points. It is also
a low cost alternative to analog transducers with A/D
conversion for digital input to PLCs and microprocessors.
t The IPS Pressure Switch provides many advantages
over other instruments, including: fast, easy, accurate
setting of set points; pressure and setpoint indication on
the same dial face; quick, at a glance monitoring of the
pressure and setpoint, and substantial cost savings to
the end user.
