Adjustable Versions
Adjustable versions of the FS-200 and FS-400 Flow Switches incorporate an internal adjustable bypass vane which is controlled externally using an ordinary, flat-blade screwdriver. As the bypass vane is rotated to its open position, an increasing amount of liquid is allowed to bypass the shuttle assembly, resulting in the need for a higher rate of flow to actuate the switch; closing the adjustable bypass vane results in switch actuation at lower flow rates. Switch actuation can be set from 3 LPM to 57 LPM (0.75 GPM to 15 GPM).
90° Flow Path Versions
Replace an ordinary 90° pipe joint with an FS-400 Series switch to monitor liquid flow with 1% repeatability. A choice of seven flow rate actuation settings ranging from 3 LPM to 39 LPM (0.75 GPM to 10.0 GPM) are offered.
All Plastic, Transparent Versions
The FS-400P Series is an inexpensive alternative for plastic piping systems. Units are available in clear PVS housings. The clear version, with a bright red shuttle, provides highly visible affirmation of flow status. Low-cost, all PVC versions are for use in systems where liquid pressures are below 8 bar (120 psig) and temperatures do not exceed 49 degrees Celsius (120 degrees Fahrenheit). An easily removed, one-piece bonnet and shuttle assembly for quick clean-out is featured.
