The adjustable switch point is factory calibrated at 0.2 fps with LED indication of flow and calibration status. Units feature selectable NO or NC operations and are not damaged by over-ranging flow velocities.
Thermal flow switches are sensors with an electrical contact output at a specific flow rate. Dwyer models provide a complete system for leak detection and feature a selectable NO or NC operation. Applications include chillers, hot water heaters, and liquid transfer systems.
