The Series V7 Flotect® Vane Flow Switch is an inexpensive range switch for use
with compatible liquids to start or stop electronic operated equipment when ow or noow conditions occur. Design is standard weatherproof, meeting NEMA 4X.
BENEFITS/FEATURES
• Superior performance with magnetically-actuated switching design
• Increased product life due to free-swinging vane, which attracts a magnet within the
solid metal switch body to actuate a snap switch by means of a simple lever arm
with no bellows, springs, or seals to fail
• Meets application requirements with durable leak proof body machined from bar
stock
• Long operating life with robust vane design which is rigid and eld trimmable for set
point adjustment
APPLICATIONS
• Proof of boiler ow
• Shuts down burner when air
ow through heating coil fails
• Protects pumps, motors and
other equipment against low
or no ow
• Stops liquid cooled engines,
machines and processing
when coolant ow is
interrupted
