Variable-area flowmeter DS06 series

The flowmeter and switch model DS06 works according to a modified variable area principle. The float is guided in a cylindrical measuring tube by means of a slotted nozzle. The flowing medium moves the float in the flow direction. An externally mounted pointer indicator is magnetically coupled to the float and thus, following the float position, indicates the flow rate on a scale. A Reed contact is mounted outside the meter in a sealed housing. When the float reaches the position of the Reed contact the switch will close. With higher flows the float moves further upward until it reaches a built-in float stop, still keeping the switch closed. This ensures a bistable switch function at any time. The Reed contact is adjustable over the full switching range of the meter. Typical applications The variable area flowmeters and monitors DS02 are used to measure and monitor continuous flow rates of low-viscosity liquids or gaseous media. Areas of applications are: cooling systems engineering research and development for measurement and monitoring of low viscous liquids horizontal or vertical mounting material: brass or stainless steel for pipe sizes from 1/4" to 1 1/2" with switch contacts, analogue transmitter and/or display
