TRANSCRIPT
Mechanical Vibration SwitchThe new patent pending design innovation provides better control over trip sensitivitythan any other mechanical vibration switch on the market
Highlights
IMI Sensors has developed this new mechanical vibration switch, Model 685A09,which not only effectively competes in the mechanical vibration switch market butalso has a significant technical advantage. This Linear Adjust Mechanical VibrationSwitch has a unique new design that provides much better sensitivity adjustmentthan traditional designs. This allows a user to better control the trip level in theswitch and improve protection of their equipment (reference test data below).
