Pressure products to satisfy a range of applications
Our comprehensive range of pressure products spans mechanical pressure switches to electronic pressure control. Alicat pressure products include standard pressure transducers and more advanced pressure controllers for use with your standard, vacuum, differential, closed loop and closed volume pressure applications. Dual valve pressure controllers are able to vent pressure within your process to offer no overshoot of system pressure.
Drastar's single and two-stage pressure regulation offers both high and low pressure processes covering a wide range of flow rates.
Barksdale pressure switches come in both electronic and mechanical form and allow for switched outputs up to 1200 bar. They are for use in both safe area and hazardous area environments with SIL2 ratings available where required.
Our range of pressure transducers and transmitters cover many different industries, from OEM applications to high-end food and pharmaceutical applications. We offer many process connections, diaphragm seals and a complete range of analogue output signals and digital communications should your application require it.
Mechanical pressure gauges come in many shapes and sizes and we can build to your specification.
Our range of Back pressure regulators from Equilibar offer a variety of applications which include vacuum, industrial, high temperature, sanitary, general use as well as for research and development.
Frequently asked questions
PCT offers a comprehensive range of pressure instrumentation including pressure sensors, transmitters, controllers, and back pressure regulators. These products are used for accurate monitoring and control of gas or liquid pressures across various industries.
A pressure sensor detects pressure and converts it into an electrical signal, while a transmitter conditions and amplifies this signal for accurate communication with external systems such as PLCs or control panels.
A pressure controller actively adjusts system pressure using electronic feedback and a control valve or orifice. PCT’s pressure controllers can maintain stable setpoints and are often used in automated or closed-loop systems.
Our pressure solutions are used in analytical instruments, medical devices, semiconductor processing, chemical dosing, fuel cell research, food production, and other applications where precision control is essential.
Yes. Many of our pressure instruments are suitable for gas or liquid service. Materials and sensor designs vary depending on the media, so our team can help select the correct model for your application.
Yes. PCT supplies both manual and electronic back pressure regulators, ideal for maintaining pressure downstream of process equipment, especially in gas chromatography, reactors, and dosing systems.
Absolutely. Our pressure sensors and controllers support a variety of output formats including 4–20 mA, 0–5 VDC, RS485, Modbus, and other industrial communication protocols.
Yes. PCT provides both forward pressure and back pressure regulation solutions. Dual-loop or bidirectional systems can be configured for complete pressure control in complex applications.
Yes. Many of our electronic pressure controllers operate in closed-loop mode using internal sensors or external feedback. This ensures stable, accurate, and repeatable pressure control in dynamic systems.
Definitely. Our technical team can guide you through product selection, control architecture, and integration of pressure devices with your existing systems, whether you're developing a prototype or scaling up to production.
