Features

  • Superior performance with magnetically-actuated switching design
  • Increased product life due to free-swinging vane, which attracts a magnet within the solid metal switch body to actuate a snap switch by means of a simple lever arm with no bellows, springs, or seals to fail
  • Meets application requirements with durable leak proof body machined from bar stock
  • Long operating life with robust vane design which is rigid and field trimmable for set point adjustment

Questions

Question
What does actuation and de-actuation mean?
Answer
Actuation means that the flow rate has reached a point where the microswitch trips or the contacts of the microswitch change state. De-actuation means that the flow rate has decreased to a point where the microswitch returns to its normal state.
Question
What material is used as a seal between the process fluid and the electrical portion of the switch?
Answer
The body material; as there is no separate "seal" since the body is machined from solid stock and the switch is magnetically actuated.
Question
On your Flow Switches, which model has a Form C type contact
Answer
Form C contact is a SPDT snap switch. Many of Dwyer’s flow switches have SPDT snap switches. The V4, V6, V7, FS-2, and V8 are some of them.
