ABSTRACT:
A fluid pressure switch is shown including first and second discs each having convex-concave surface configurations on opposite sides thereof adapted to invert its configuration upon being subjected to selected pressure levels. A slidably disposed plural stage pressure converter having a flexible membrane on one side thereof is operatively coupled to the discs to transfer force from fluid pressure received by the membrane. A motion transfer member extends from the second disc to an electric switch. At a first range of pressures the first disc prevents actuation of the switch, at a second range of pressures the curvature of the first disc has inverted allowing actuation of the switch while at a third range of pressures the curvature of the second disc has inverted resulting in deacuation of the switch.
