V8 Flotect Vane Operated Flow Switch
Magnetically actuated switching design, leak proof body, operating pressures up to 150 PSIG with temperatures to 212°F
The Series V8 Flotect® Vane Operated Flow Switches is ideal for protecting unattended equipment from damage or loss of production. This Series is available for installation in a 1 in - 6 in pipe with operating pressures are up to 150 PSIG (10 Bar) and temperatures to 212°F (100°C).
• Suitable for mounting in a protected environment with UL recognition as an industrial motor controller per UL standard 508
• Increased product life with a free-swinging vane which attracts a magnet within the solid metal switch body, actuating a snap switch by means of a simple lever arm with no bellows, springs, or seals to fail
• Excellent chemical resistance and leak proof body and vane constructed of tough durable polyphenylene sulfide
• Solves application needs with full size trimmable vane is provided with molded-in graduations
