Bi-Metal Thermometer with Switch Contacts - 55-8xx

Brand: WIKA Alexander Wiegand SE & Co. KG
Wherever the process temperature has to be indicated locally, and, at the same time, circuits are to be made or broken, the bimetal thermometer with switch contact can be used.

Switch contacts (electrical alarm contacts) make or break an electric control circuit dependent upon the position of the instrument pointer. The switch contacts are adjustable over the full extent of the scale range.

The instrument pointer (actual value pointer) moves freely across the entire scale range, independent of the setting.
Features
  • High reliability and long service life.
  • Universal application.
  • Case and stem material stainless steel.
  • Gauges with inductive contacts for use in hazardous areas with ATEX approval.
  • Gauges with electronic contacts for PLC applications.
