What type of pressure switch is generally used to sense small changes in low pressure systems?
The type of pressure switch that is generally used to sense small variations in low-pressure system.
Explanation of Solution
Pressure switches are the switches that operate with respect to pressure variation in a system. In general, the pressure system is classified into low-pressure system and high-pressure system. The low-pressure system uses a sensitive pressure switch. The diaphragm pressure switch is classified as a sensitive pressure switch. The diaphragm can respond to small pressures.
Thus, the type of pressure switch that is generally used to sense small variations in low-pressure system is a diaphragm pressure switch.
