Surprisingly compact, the
Series V6 Flotect® LOW Flow Switch
is engineered to
specifically monitor liquid, gas, or airflows. Operation is simple and
dependable with no mechanical linkage as the flow switch is magnetically
actuated. The lower body holds the flow vane and one magnet, which
controls the switch actuating magnet in the separate upper housing. In
most applications the switch is normally off with the pipeline flow
forcing the vane against the vane spring. As the flow decreases the vane
spring pushes back the vane, actuating the switch to signal an alarm or
shutdown. Tees are available for installation in 1/2" pipelines. |
