Process applications and demanding environments

Hycontrols Custom Control Sensor range is widely used in applications where a fit and forget solution is of paramountimportance. They are used because they provide the following advantages.

  • Set points stay set - not sensitive to shock, vibration, temperature variations, or other ambient conditions.
  • No “tracing” of fluctuating pressures - no “teasing” of the microswitch. The switch is either “on” or “off”.
  • Reduces the adverse effects of pump ripple, contact chatter, fatigue, and premature wear.
  • Maximum life expectancy with lifelong reliability and precise repeatability.


A selection of some of our popular industrial and process models

All CCS DUAL-SNAP Pressure and Temperature switch models are available with a choice of SPDT or DPDT micro-switches including gold contacts for intrinsically safe applications. All certified models have hermetically sealed electrical assemblies as standard.
For electrical termination options we offer a choice of approved junction boxes, DIN connectors [weatherproof, compact models] or free leads.
On corrosive or sour service, wetted process parts can be supplied as standard in 316 Stainless Steel, Monel or Hastelloy all in full compliance with the latest NACE [National Association of Corrosion Engineers] specifications. A choice of corresponding elastomer seal is available.

Adjustable pressures from 38 mmH20 to 1100 bar. Temperatures from -34 to 343°C.
