"Pressure Levels"...

We see from your search that you're looking for information on the term "Pressure Levels", and we have a large number of manufacturers' news releases and technical articles here on Engineeringtalk which will be of interest. Let me be your guide.
 
Start with the news release Air preparation system protects equipment from Parker Hannifin, which we summarised at the time by saying "The Moduflex Airframe offers a cost-effective, simple to use method of removing harmful water and particulate contamination for air tools, paint spraying, construction sites, body shops and garages". A few weeks before, we featured the news release Maths software predicts noise sources from Maplesoft: "Maple's plotting capabilities were useful when describing results such as the eigen functions that represent the mode shapes of the natural resonant frequencies".
 
In September 2007, we covered the news from Invertek Drives concerning its Optidrive VTC inverters - take a look at Inverters pump water in Ireland which says: "Two pressure levels can be set, one at which the drive stops the water pump operating and another at which the drive commences operation again".
 
Take a look also at the news release from Keller UK, Programmable pressure switch activates alarms, as well as Compressor fitted to yacht from Boge Compressors, and Coating improves insert cutting performance from Oerlikon Balzers Coating.
