Pressure Switch Performance in Boiler Safety

Pressure switches occupy an essential place in numerous industrial system operations. Basically responsible for measuring the pressure in environments, reservoirs, pipelines, etc., the pressure switches are used for various purposes, from the actuation of steps of the same system to the shutdown of machines.

In essence the pressure switch is a pressure sensor and can be applied to any system and any desired function and in some applications the pressure switches act as a safety element.

Boilers are essential equipment in most industries, as well as commercial and residential buildings, hospitals, among others. Its operation is directly designed for the production of pressure through vapors, which demands essential pressure control.

The operation of a boiler requires control at several points, such as water intake control, level, pressure, among others. With this information, the system can self-control by opening relief valves, driving pumps, etc.

The use of quality pressure switches as well as the correct planning of preventive maintenance contribute not only to the financial damage caused by the breakdown of equipment, but also to the safety of employees by protecting lives normally lost in boiler explosion accidents.
