Brass Housing with SPDT Snap Switch

Economical and Dependable Flow Switch

Monitor Flow in 1/2" to 2" Pipe

Explosion Proof & Leak Proof Body

 

Surprisingly compact, the Series V6 Flotect® 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 pipelines from 1/2˝ to 2˝, with bushings added the unit is easily adapted to 1/4˝ and 3/8˝ piping.
