The FSW301 flow switch comprises
a paddle system (1) with a permanent
magnet attached (2). Above that
magnet is a reed contact (3), located
outside the flow of fluid. A second
magnet with opposing poles (4) creates
the force necessary to reset the switch
back to the no flow position.
When the monitored flow pushes the
paddle and changes the position of
the magnet (2) in relation to the reed
contact (3) it activates the contact.
As soon as the flow is interrupted,
the paddle moves back to its starting
position, which returns the reed
contact to the initial position. The force
necessary to push the magnet back is
provided by the two magnets repelling
each other. Using magnetic force
instead of the usual leaf spring means
the switch is considerably more stable
in the long term and much less
sensitive to pressure peaks.
The reed
contact used
as a sensing
element
consists of two
ferro-magnetic
contact blades
located in a
glass bulb filled
with inert gas.
This practically
eliminates wear
resulting from
contact burning.
This construction
allows a useful life
of up to 100,000,000
switching cycles.
