Trip Mate™

Strap –On Plunger Arrival Sensor

Magnetic Induction... Switch penetrates through metal and non-metal materials to sense metal objects moving past the switch. Rugged and durable, the TripMate magnetic shut-off switch is the perfect solution for industrial applications that require plunger arrival sensing, piston stroke counting or tank level gaging.

Simple Installation... Saves time and money. The TripMate’s narrow body package fits into those hard to get places. A UV resistant rubber hold-down secures the TripMate to the well head pipe. Connect to the switch screw terminals to complete a simple, two-step installation.

Ideal Switch... Configuration allows both high-side and low-side power switching for latching pneumatic valve and electrical relay control. Electrical isolation between internal sensing circuits and switch terminals provides ideal, low loss switch for low voltage, pull-down and pull-up control signal applications. A high current switch rating, low on resistance, and electrical isolation combine to provide an extremely versatile arrival switch, meeting a wide range of industrial control applications.

Carefree Operation... And long term reliability set the TripMate apart from other magnetic switches. Impermeable epoxy sealing and electrically isolated switch connections protect against harsh weather and lighting. Ultra low power electronics significantly reduce failure rates and provide intrinsically safe operation. Rugged packaging is made to last and give years of continuous performance in harsh weather conditions. The TripMate’s chemical resistant, molded enclosure keeps the TripMate looking new even after years of oilfield service.

With its universal 2-wire hook-up, the TripMate™ is compatible with most popular well head controllers, including the TimeMate 2000 and the PumpMate 2000 shown above.
