VIBRATION SWITCH
Murphy Vibration Switch
The vibration switch are shock-sensitive devices used to shut down machinery that is powered by an electric motor or an engine. It is intended to recognize shock and vibration in three axes of motion. Vibration switch is a great choice for applications on engines, pumps, compressors, heat exchangers, and pumping units where shut-down protection from harmful shock/vibration is sought. Switches can be adjusted in the field to the level of sensitivity needed for each application.
