 F001 Series Sub-Compact Flow Switch to 1.5 GPM in water   Printer Friendly Version
The F001 is a precision machined, piston type flow switch that provides unsurpassed durability and reliability. Its all brass or 316 stainless steel body is rated to 1000 psig with its internal piston the only moving part. Supplied with ΒΌ" NPT inlet and outlet ports, the F001 can be factory calibrated for water flow switch settings as low as 0.1 GPM and up to 1.5 GPM. It can also be supplied with special fluid calibrations in viscosities up to 500 SSU.

A spring loaded magnetic piston inside the pressure body bore is displaced by flow through the ports. The displacement of the piston actuates a hermetically sealed reed switch in a separate chamber of the pressure body. The spring return de-actuates the switch when the flow decreases.
