Tag : PCB Pressure Switch


Pompano Beach, Fl - Micro Pneumatic Logic (MPL) is proud toannounce a new cost effective miniature pressure switch targetingthe OEM medical market. The MPL 5000X with its small footprint isideal for PCB mounting and is easily incorporated into miniatureassemblies for medical applications like nebulizers, portableoxygen concentrators and other forms of drug delivery systems.These switches offer a high degree of switching point accuracy andreliability, compact space saving size and very competitivepricing.

The MPL 5000X is rated between 0.01 in./H20and 0.75 in./H20. Theswitch pressure is factory set and calibrated to the desiredswitching pressure. The proof pressure for these switches is 1.0psi with a burst pressure of 25 psi. The switches perform reliablyin an operating temperature range of -40°F to 120°F. Thesenew miniature pressure switches utilize precious metal contacts toprovide extended lifetime and reliability.

The MPL 5000X miniature pressure switch is a result of extensiveresearch and development to provide a high-quality, reliableeconomical solution for general purpose low pressure switching.Ideal for deployment in applications that have space limitationsthese pressure switches are an inexpensive solution for taskmonitoring. The switches are designed to support low-current logicapplications.

For the past 35 years MPL has earned a global reputation of productinnovation and service excellence which began with the productionof a sensitive miniature pressure switch used to improve thereliability of mainframe computers. Through decades ofmanufacturing experience and commitment to vertical integration,MPL has learned what works in specifying and mass producingprecision pressure sensing and pressure switching products. TodayMPL switches can be found literally everywhere from hospital roomsto residential homes.
