Switch safety package said to be highly rugged and reliable

7 February 2007 Switches, Relays & Keypads

Deluge showers and eye flushes are plentiful in chemical processing facilities. Flow switches are used to notify proper personnel should an emergency occur, however, they often are susceptible to corrosion and/or freezing problems.

The Go Switch Safety Shower Package is the ideal solution according to local distributor, Switches International. When the 80 Series Go Switches with magnetic targets are installed - on the pull chain for the shower and the paddle for the eyewash - they provide an output to indicate an emergency since someone is using the shower. The Go Switch Safety Shower Package is a positive actuated feedback that will still provide an output, even if the water is frozen or turned off.

The 80 Series Go Switch features DPDT 10 A contacts. One set of contacts can be dedicated to send a signal to emergency medical technicians, and the other set can sound an alarm or initiate a light in the local area.
