RS PRO Paddle Flow Switch for Gas, Liquid, 5.5 L/min Min, 7 L/min Max

This paddle flow switch lets you maintain a preset flow rate between 5.5 and 7 litres per minute. It's a useful option for regulating liquid or gas flow in equipment.

As the flow rate reaches the preset value, the spring-supported paddle's built-in magnet approaches another magnet outside the flow chamber. This second magnet activates a microswitch that alters the flow of a liquid or gas to keep it within a preset range. The switch is equipped with a 1/2 in British Standard Pipe (BSP) female connection.

It features corrosion-resistant stainless steel and nickel-plated brass components and has an IP65 rating for protection from water splashes and dust. It can withstand maximum pressures of 25 bar and maximum temperatures of +110°C.

You'll find this switch used to indicate problems with system parts in heating, cooling and ventilation applications.
