SOR explosion proof temperature switches work on a proven, time-tested vapor pressure thermal system. Changes in fluid vapor pressure may be accurately predicted according to the influence of temperature on the switch’s sensing bulb. When the temperature in the process changes a proportional adjustment in the vapor pressure occurs in the sensing bulb. The change acts on the diaphragm/piston assembly to actuate/de-actuate an electrical, snap-action switching element at discrete process temperatures.

Big Hermet – Explosion Proof Temperature Switch

Big Hermet – Explosion Proof Temperature Switch

Models: Big Hermet
Ranges: -50° to 1000°F, -45° to 540°C
Certifications: Unit: INMETRO, RTN, SIL; Snap Switch: UL/CSA, TestSafe (SAA)
Warranty: 3 Years

The design of the SOR explosion proof, Big Hermet temperature switch is based on the time-tested vapor – pressure thermal system. Process temperature changes cause proportional vapor pressure changes in the sensing bulb that act on the diaphragm/piston assembly to actuate/deactuate an electrical switching element. This versatile, adjustable pressure snap switch works in a wide variety of process media and industrial applications.

  • Hermetically sealed snap switches
  • Ranges -500 to 10000F, -450 to 5400C
  • Set point adjustment with calibrated scale
  • Set point adjustment without declassification of hazardous area

Dual Hi-Lo – Explosion Proof Temperature Switch

Direct or Remote Mount – Explosion Proof Temperature Switch

Models: V2
Ranges: -50° to 1000°F, -45° to 540°C
Certifications: Unit: INMETRO, RTN, SIL; Switch: ATEX, UL/CSA, TestSafe (SAA)
Warranty: 3 Years

The explosion proof, SOR V2 Hi-Lo temperature switch operates on a vapor-pressure thermal system. Fluid vapor pressure changes in a predictable manor according to the influence of temperature on a sensing bulb. It actuates/deactuates a snap-action piston assembly at a discrete process temperature.

The V2 model features two discrete sensing assemblies and two separate set points with two separate hermetically sealed switch outputs all in a single, housing.  The Dual Hi-Lo V2 temperature switch can signal at minimum and maximum temperatures. It is field adjustable and tamper resistant making it a convenient choice for just about any industry. The designation “V2“ indicates special housing to accommodate the hermetically sealed switches. Ranges from -500F to 10000F

  • 316 SS temperature sensing bulbs
  • Remote sensing bulb is optional
  • Minimal ambient temperature influence
  • AC or DC electrical service

Mini-Hermet – Explosion Proof Temperature Switch

Mini-Hermet – Explosion Proof Temperature Switch

Models: Mini-Hermet
Ranges: -50° to 1000°F, -45° to 540°C
Certifications: Unit: ATEX, GOST, INMETRO, RTN, SIL, UL/CSA; Snap Switch: ATEX, TestSafe (SAA), UL/CSA
Warranty: 3 Years

The sensing assembly of the explosion proof Mini-Hermet temperature switch operates on the vapor-pressure thermal system that has been a standard in the industry for many years. The switching element assembly is hermetically sealed in a stainless steel capsule and carries an explosion proof rating. The small, compact size of the SOR Mini-Hermet makes it extremely popular because it fits where other switches don’t and may be direct or remotely mounted.
