FSW-20 Series paddle-type
switches are easily installed into
pipes ranging in size from 11⁄4" and
up, using an ordinary pipe tee or
threaded weld coupling. The paddle
pivots to move out of the liquid’s
path with increasing flow, thereby
activating the switch.The paddle is
easily cut for desired flow setting.
Models FSW-21 and FSW-22
feature high-pressure (2000 psig
max) and high-temperature
[to 150°C (300°F)] ratings for
rugged installations.

All flow rate tests for the above table were conducted with the switch installed in a standard
“T” fitting. For calculation of flow rates in pipe sizes larger than 5", a flow velocity of
approximately 0.5 fps actuates the switch with a full length (5") paddle.
Comes complete with operator’s manual.
