The HPS Series are durable, reliable electromechanical gauge pressure on/off switches that are available with either single pole single throw (SPST) normally open or normally closed circuitry, or single pole double throw (SPDT) circuitry. They are designed for use in rugged transportation and industrial applications that require the making or breaking of an electrical connection in response to a pressure change of the system media., configurable pressure switch
“The High Pressure Premium is the first in a new portfolio of configurable pressure switches that are designed utilizing a building block approach that enables easy, rapid assembly,” said Wade Tollison, senior global product marketing manager for Honeywell Sensing and Control. “This method allows Honeywell to quickly provide sample and production units to our customers, meet our customers’ design requirements without incremental tooling charges, reduce our customers’ production costs, and reduce design and implementation costs of our customers’ end product. Additionally, the HPS Series’ reliability and durability allow our customers to increase productivity while reducing field failures and service costs.”
Potential transportation applications include heavy duty construction machinery, agricultural machinery, and material handling machinery. Potential industrial applications include CNC machines, compressors, boilers, fracking equipment, mud pumps, presses, punches, pressure washers, trash compactors, water jet cutting machines, and any machinery that use high pressure hydraulic fluids.
The HPS Series switches feature a switching point accuracy of up to ±2%, providing efficient operation of equipment. Their switching capability of 5 mA to 5 A allows for potential use in a wide range of applications, from heavy loads to those connected to an electronic control unit. Additionally, Honeywell’s global presence offers customers immediate product and application support throughout the development cycle, from design to global manufacturing.

In September, Tubb was chosen to be plastered and cast for a new statue which will be debuted this weekend at Arlington National Cemetery. The statue of Tubb's likeness will represent one of ANC's most recognizable figures -- a service member blowing taps. That life-sized likeness of Tubb will be officially unveiled Jan. 20, during a ribbon-cutting ceremony at the Arlington National Cemetery visitor's center.
Tubb traveled to New York City four months ago for the casting session, which lasted between two and a half and three hours.
"I took the train up at 5 a.m. in the morning, did the casting and was back home by 6 p.m.," Tubb remembered of the trip to cast the statue. "They cast me in three sections. They did my head first, and they completely encase it. It took about 15 minutes. Then they did the lower body and the upper body.
"It was pretty cool," Tubb said of the initial process. "When the head was done, [there] was complete sensory deprivation. They cleared away two little spots for the nose [to breathe] and that's all I had. They put this seaweed composite material [on me], and then it got wrapped in plaster strips."
A support team of 15 to 20 workers coached and encouraged Tubb through the claustrophobic steps toward making a mold for the statue.
As for his feeling of being chosen to represent one of ANC's most iconic figures, Tubb mentioned that piece of information needed some time to be mentally absorbed.
"It took a while to sink in," Tubb admitted. "At first, I thought this will just be a cool little statue down there. But then I found out this will be in the center of the visitors center. When people walk in, it will be the first thing they see."
The staff sergeant's extended family from Ohio will be by his side for the unveiling. Before that, Tubb will have the opportunity to inspect the finished project. He also noted the statue is to be encased -- humorously mentioning he is relieved the figure will be surrounded by a protective cover.
