Mechanical Design The device records the flow of monitored

medium via a paddle system (1), which

has a permanent magnet (2) attached at its

upper end. A reed contact (3) is positioned

outside the flow above this magnet. A

second magnet (4) with opposite polarity is

used to create a reset force. The paddle

system moves once it comes into contact

with the monitored flow. The magnet (2)

changes its position to the reed contact (3).

The contact opens/closes depending on

the contact type. As soon as the flow is

interrupted, the paddle returns to its

original position and the reed contact

opens/closes depending on the contact

type.

Engineering Notes •On site:

– A T-junction with a female-threaded (1/2" NPT) fitting is required for 3/4” to 2”

line sizes.

– A 1-inch, female-threaded (1/2” NPT) welding socket is required for 3" to 8" line

sizes.

•All dimensions and data provided in the table of switching values are based on water

at 68°F (20°C), and the use of T-junctions and horizontal piping.

Flow Switch

Installation

•When choosing the installation site, ensure that the specified limit values (see

Technical Data) are not exceeded.

•Select suitable measures to prevent the medium from freezing. If the flow switch is to

be used in ambient temperatures of <39°F (4°C), do not carry out any operation

beforehand using pure water. Residual water in the flow switch can result in frost

damage.

Mechanical installation

General installation

instructions

•First, clean the pipe system where the flow switch is installed and remove any

magnetic particles, such as welding residue.

•The laminar path length in front of and behind the flow switch must be at least 10

times and 5 times the pipe diameter, respectively.

•The nominal installation position of the flow switch is an upright standing position in

horizontal pipework.

•The switches should only be installed in a vertical position with a maximum deviation

of 45°.

SEN0531R1

Figure 2. Acceptable Switch Mounting Positions.

•Ensure that there are no external magnetic fields in the immediate vicinity of the flow

switch, since these can impair device operation.

•There is an arrow on the flow switch. Install with the arrow parallel with the pipe

shaft, facing in the flow direction.

SEN0522R1

•The brass connecting nut G¾ has a tightening torque of 18 to 22 lb-ft (25-30 Nm)

Installation Notes •Observe all local regulations from the electrical utilities or waterworks as applicable.

Electrical

Connections

WARNING:

Danger of death due to electrical voltage!

Always disconnect power to the system before connecting wires of the main

cable.

CAUTION: Destruction or damage of reed contact!

Note the maximum contact loads stated on the type plate.

The maximum contact loads stated on the type plate (switching voltage,

switching current, and switching capacity) refer to pure ohmic loads and may

not be exceeded under any circumstances.

High voltage and current peaks can occur, particularly when switching

inductive or capacitive loads (for example, relay coil, capacitors). Even a brief

overload can destroy (welding the contacts) or damage (reduced lifespan)

the reed contact.

Adjust Switching

Unit

Standard Contact

The switching unit of the control switch enables two contact types:

1. Make contact (normally open): RED arrow on the switching unit

2. Break contact (normally closed): WHITE arrow on the switching unit

The following table explains the two contact types:

Contact Type Setting Flow Rate Electric

Contact

Increasing ClosingMake contact (NO) RED arrow Decreasing Opening

Increasing OpeningBreak contact (NC) WHITE arrow Decreasing Closing

The switching unit is factory set to make contact.

•To adjust the switching unit, open the cover of the switching head.

SEN0536R1

To Open Here

Figure 10.

•Loosen the locking screw (0.1” [2.5 mm] hexagon socket screw) and position the

switching unit until the red or white arrow is visible at the entry of the switching contact

guide to make contact or break contact, respectively.

•You can use the arrow length to make fine adjustments to the switching point:

Adjust to the arrowhead means: Switching point is at a lower flow rate.

Adjust to the arrow end means: Switching point is at a higher flow rate.

•Carefully retighten the locking screw.

•It is recommended that you use Loctite to secure the locking screw of the switching unit

after carrying out individual adjustments.

•Close the cover until it locks into place.
