Default Pressure Switch

I am trying to find a pressure switch to get my bottle pressure up to whatever damn pressure I please. I will be wiring this in series with my heater relay.

Apparently the NX Pressure Transducer is not adjustable and only provides pressure between 900 and 1050 psi.

Has anybody been able to locate / use an adjustable pressure switch that can be used on our Nitrous systems that doesn't cost over 150 bucks.

Any help would be appreciated.

no, but here is my idea on the subject, if you are electrically gifted, try to get ahold of a NX pressure Gauge sender (for their electronic gauges) and build something that will allow you to "dial in" the pressure.

Thats what i have been planning on doing, but have had no time, and no $$ to buy the electric gauge ($200+) but im sure you could get the sender cheaper than that.

Well, so much for 150 bucks. I was able to obtain a SPDT pressure switch adjustable from 80 to 1700 psi for $225. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Eek!]" src="gr_eek2.gif" />

Fortunately, I have a hook-up with the power industry. Total Cost: 1 free N20 spin in the car for the supply manager. <img border="0" alt="[Fluffy]" title="" src="graemlins/fluffy.gif" />
