Gecko DTEC-1 pressure switch
The DTEC-1 pressure switch is among the most important pieces of safety equipment found in your spa system. It monitors the water flowing through the heater and cuts off heating if the flow rate is insufficient to prevent overheating. We offer the new version of this pressure switch, with a metal thread. It is perfectly compatible with the old plastic-threaded one (see photo 4), which is no longer manufactured.
Do not confuse this version of the DTEC pressure switch with the model that is specially designed for the in.clear water purification system, and has a lower pre-set pressure threshold.
