SFX Paddle Flow Switches

The SFX Paddle Flow switch is used to detect liquid movement in pipes. When the liquid is static or nonexistent, the spring is fully extended pulling the magnet downward and opening the switch. As flow occurs and the paddle is thrusted forward 20°~30° (or more) the paddle will push the magnet upward and actuate the switch (closing the circuit). The length of paddle can be adjusted to the pipe’s diameter. There are many applications where knowing whether there is flow or no-flow conditions of a fluid in a pipe is important for proper equipment operation. Liquid flow switches can help control process quality. The SFX Paddle flow switch is a cost effective simple option to consider to provide such positive indication of flow or no-flow conditions.
