This highly developed signal transmitter consists of a sensor, the proximity switch and, at the customer’s request, an additional isolating switch amplifier. It is mounted in a holder that is in turn clamped between flanges. Accurate positioning of the signal transmitter is important: The inductive proximity switch is mounted at a distance of two to four millimetres to a metal lug that is fastened to the bursting disc (rupture disk). When the bursting disc (rupture disk) opens in the event of a failure, the signal transmitter registers that the lug has changed its position.

TRANSMITTER FEATURES

• Reliable and immediate signalling when the bursting disc bursts
• Suitable for explosion-protected areas
• Proximity switch remains undamaged after bursting, thus reducing repair costs
