Electronic
Pressure Switch
EDS 3400

The EDS 3400 is a compact, electronic
pressure switch with an integral digital
display for measuring relative pressure
in the high pressure range.
The instrument has a stainless steel
measurement cell with thin-lm strain
gauge. The instrument can have one
or two switching outputs and there is
the option of an additional analogue
output signal (4 .. 20 mA or 0 .. 10 V
selectable). A special design feature of
the EDS 3400 is that the display can
be moved in two planes. The unit can
be installed in almost any mounting
position and the display can be turned
to the optimum position without
the usual additional expense of a
mechanical adapter. The 4-digit display
can indicate the pressure in ,  or
. The user can select the particular
measurement unit. When changing to a
different measurement unit, the
EDS 3400 automatically converts all
the switching settings to the new unit of
measurement. In addition, the
EDS 3400 is also available in a
DESINA
®
-compliant version.
The main applications of the
EDS 3400 are primarily in hydraulics
and pneumatics, as well as in
refrigeration and air conditioning
technology.
