At half the height of standard insertion flow switches, these are often installed in tees or pipe outlets in low-clearance areas. They’re installed in tees or pipe outlets to detect the flow rate of liquid in contact with the sensing paddle. They activate or deactivate equipment when the flow rate reaches your set point. Switches are single pole, double throw (SPDT) and can be installed to turn one circuit from “off” to “on” (normally open). The paddle can be trimmed to fit a range of pipe sizes. The flow rate varies based on the pipe size and the paddle length. Enclosure meets NEMA 4X for protection from dirt, washdowns, and corrosive liquids.

Socket-weld connection is for use with unthreaded male pipe.

Threaded connection is for use with NPT female pipe.

For installation in environments with flammable gases and combustible dust, these flow switches are UL listed for hazardous locations. They’re installed in tees or pipe outlets to detect the flow rate of liquid in contact with the sensing paddle. Switches activate or deactivate equipment when the flow rate reaches your set point. All come with five sensing paddles that can be trimmed to fit a range of pipe sizes. The flow rate varies based on the pipe size and paddle used.

SPDT switches control one circuit. They can be installed to turn the circuit from “off” to “on” (normally open) or from “on” to “off” (normally closed).

DPDT switches control two circuits. They can be installed to turn both circuits from “off” to “on” (normally open) or from “on” to “off” (normally closed).

Switches with a 316 stainless steel body are more corrosion resistant than switches with a brass body.
