Switches: Pressure related categories
 | Paddle Type Flow/No-Flow detection for pipes with 1 -1/4′′ diameter and up. Paddles are cut to length for desired actuation setting (from 1-1/4′′ to 5-1/2′′). Unique, patented cam design assures low pressure drop and does not require bellows, seals or mechanical linkages.

 | FS-10798 Series - Externally Adjustable for Water, Oils and
Gases
These externally adjustable switches are ideal for protecting machine
tools from coolant flow failure, for protecting bearings from loss of
lubricant or to assure proper air flow. They offer an infinite number of
flow settings at pressures up to 1000 PSIG, with low pressure drop and
precise repeatability. |
 | FS-150 Series - Straight Flow Path with Low Pressure Drop
These slim, inline switches reduce pressure drop to a minimum. They
incorporate a unique, dual-diameter, internal bore and piston
configuration to minimize flow constriction. Liquids are able to smoothly
pass around the piston and flow through the switch with little pressure
loss to the down stream line. |
 | FS-380 Series - Compact Flow Switch for High Inline Pressures
These rugged inline flow switches require 100 micron filtration and are
less susceptible to clogging than other high-pressure inline flow
switches. The one-piece magnetic PPS composite piston makes the FS-
380 ideal for high-pressure applications such as industrial cleaning
equipment. The FS-380 is also an excellent choice for semicon cooling
applications where simple design and reliable operation are required. |
 | FS-480 Series - Inline Flow Switch for Low Pressure Drop
The FS-480 large-body inline flow switch delivers ample flow rates with
minimal pressure drop. 25% larger than its FS-380 sibling, the FS-480 is
ideal for processes that push more fluid through their systems and
demand low pressure drops. Designed to accommodate the
Semiconductor Industry′s move to larger 300 mm wafer and cross-over
equipment, this switch is also perfect for critical medical equipment
applications. A glass-reinforced PPS piston and forged 316 stainless
steel body make this sensor rugged enough for high pressure lubrication
and cooling systems as well. This simple, yet meticulously perfected
design provides the reliability required in critical applications while
allowing for much lower pressure drop rates than other available
switches. |
 | FS-925 Series - General Purpose
This series of precision-calibrated switches provides reliable and
consistent performance; repeatability is within 1%. FS-925 units are
factory preset for actuation at specified flow rates. These switches
provide accurate detection of excessive or insufficient flow rates in such
applications as: protecting against loss of fluid flow in hydraulic systems,
assuring proper coolant flow in semiconductor processing equipment,
monitoring high pressure lubrication systems, and ensuring proper air
flow in water/waste systems. |
 | FS-926 Series - Low Flow
This series of precision-calibrated switches provides reliable and
consistent performance; repeatability is within 1%. FS-926 units are
factory preset for actuation at specified flow rates. These switches
provide accurate detection of excessive or insufficient flow rates in such
applications as: protecting against loss of fluid flow in hydraulic systems,
assuring proper coolant flow in semiconductor processing equipment,
monitoring high pressure lubrication systems, and ensuring proper air
flow in water/waste systems. |
 | FS-200 Series - General Purpose, Straight-Through Flow Path
The FS-200 Series offers accurate flow detection, with 1% repeatability,
over a broad range of flow settings and port sizes. Its durable
construction delivers long-life reliability in either water or oil. Generous
flow paths keep pressure drop low. These switches are ideal for
detection of improper flow rates in high volume lubrication, cooling or
process systems. |
 | FS-200 Series Adjustable - General Purpose, Straight-Through
Flow Path
The FS-200 Series offers accurate flow detection, with 1% repeatability,
over a broad range of flow settings and port sizes. Its durable
construction delivers long-life reliability in either water or oil. Generous
flow paths keep pressure drop low. These switches are ideal for
detection of improper flow rates in high volume lubrication, cooling or
process systems. |
 | FS-500 Series - Low Cost Units for Threaded Plastic Piping
The FS-500 offers low cost flow monitoring with a variety of switch
actuation points and low pressure drop. All wetted parts are
polypropylene or stainless steel, making this switch ideal for a wide
range of chemical and temperature requirements. The materials are also
NSF or FDA approved for potable water treatment applications including
chlorinators, purifiers and heaters. The FS-500 is ideal for equipment
cooling including welders, lasers, etc. A J-box version with a 5 amp relay
is also available for direct control of higher electrical loads, such as
chlorinator pumps. |
