Pressure Switch
 
Does anyone know where to get a pressure reader for the control box.

Re: Pressure Switch
 
Do you mean a pressure transducer, such that it converts the air pressure into a voltage, which you can feed back to the Robot Controller, and read out on the Operator Interface? If so, you can find one in the 2004 Kit of Parts (I believe 1323's rookie year was 2004, otherwise, you may want to locate a nearby team with a team number less than 1200, they should have one.)

Yes, but where can you order one.

Thanks, rc

Digikey has a range. For the High Pressure side of the system you might consider http://search.digikey.com/scripts/Dk...me=223-1014-ND for about $130

While for the low pressure side something like this http://search.digikey.com/scripts/Dk...me=480-1922-ND might be more affordable. $25 or so.

I would do a careful search, however, of all the pressure transducers available on digikey, and take care to read their data sheets. I've just picked these two out as possible examples and HAVE NOT confirmed either that they would be FRC legal (whether you care or not...) or otherwise a good choice for your application.
