Mechanical Flow Switches: F10 & F50

Source: Magnetrol International

Magnetrol® flow switches are highly reliable devices utilized to sense the start or stop of flow in horizontal pipelines containing oil and petroleum derivatives, chemicals, water, or air.

Magnetrol® flow switches are highly reliable devices utilized to sense the start or stop of flow in horizontal pipelines containing oil and petroleum derivatives, chemicals, water, or air.

Vane-actuated Model F10 switches are used on gas or liquid flow applications in 2" or larger line sizes.

Disc actuated Model F50 switches are in-line type used for sensing clean liquids in 2" or smaller line sizes.

FEATURES

  • Actuation on increasing or decreasing flow
  • Special sensing elements for non-standard or high flow applications
  • Designed for horizontal pipe applications
  • Available switch styles include dry contact, hermetically sealed and pneumatic
