1 Overview
1.1 Short description
Fig. 1: SW-08 flow monitor
1 Switch point adjustment scale
2 Switch contact with female socket
or sealed-in cable
The flow monitor SW-08 monitors the
continuous flow of liquids. It is
designed for installation in pipe sys-
tems.
A float inside the device is moved by
the medium flowing through it. The
desired switch point can be set on the
switch point adjustment scale, whereby
the arrow on the switch contact is
aligned to the desired volume flow
value on the switch point adjustment
scale.
External measuring devices can be
connected at the socket.
1.2 Warranty and guar-
antee provisions
Warranty and guarantee provisions are
contained in the general terms and
conditions of the manufacturer.

2.2 Correct use in
accordance with
these instructions
The device is designed and con-
structed exclusively for the intended
use described herein.
Correct use in non-hazardous areas
The flow monitor serves exclusively
to monitor the continuous flow of liq-
uids within a temperature range of
-20 °C to 120 °C (optional: 160 °C) at
a maximum operating pressure of:
300 bar (brass version) and 350 bar
(stainless steel version).
Correct use in explosion-hazard
zones
There are no explosion-proof limit
switches available for the current
SW-08 (1/2“) series.
Any additional or different application,
above and beyond the correct use in
accordance with these instructions, is
deemed as incorrect use.
WARNING!
anger due to incorrect use!
Incorrect use of the flow monitor
may result in dangerous situations.
– Use the flow monitor only
within the stipulated perform-
ance limits
– Do not subject the flow mon-
itor to severe temperature fluc-
tuations
– Do not use the flow monitor
with quick acting valves
– Do not use the flow monitor
with solenoid valves
– Do not subject the flow mon-
itor to vibrations
– Do not subject the flow mon-
itor to pressure surges
– Do not use the flow monitor
with media containing solids or
abrasives
– Only use the flow monitor with
media previously approved by
the manufacturer
– Do not use the flow monitor as
the sole monitoring device to
prevent dangerous conditions
– Do not install the flow monitor
as a load bearing part within a
pipeline system
– The flow monitor must be
installed so that it is protected
from damage by mechanical
force. If necessary, install an
appropriate impact protection
device.
All claims for damages due to incorrect
use are excluded.
