The flow switches model DPS10 transmit the flow-dependent displacement of the paddle installed in the piping by means of a bellows and a spring-loaded rocker mechanically connected to a heavy-duty micro switch.
The switching point can be changed by adjusting the spring preload. The three standard paddles can be used in piping with nominal size of 1” to 3”. A fourth paddle can be used for larger nominal sizes or to reduce the switching values through appropriate shortening to the desired length.
In addition, the DPS10 is available in a design with a reduced adjustment range, so that it can also be used for minimum switching values.
Typical applications
DPS10 paddle switches can be used wherever reliable monitoring of liquid flow is required. The switches are used for monitoring both minimum and maximum flow.
Typical applications areas are: monitoring of cooling and lubrication circuits, dry-running protection for pumps or for monitoring loss of flow. Their sturdy construction allows them to be reliably used in many industrial applications.
