More informations
The flow switch DP03 works according to the paddle principle. The flowing medium hits the baffle plate attached to the end of pendulum. The pendulum is deflected by the corresponding dynamic pressure.
On the opposite side a magnet is attached. A second outboard magnet repels the paddle magnet creating a restoring force. This force is adjustable by changing the distance of the magnets by means of a screw, so that the switching point of the device can be adjusted easily and accurately. By means of the magnet, which is located on the pendulum, an external reed switch is operated without contact.
Typical applications
The flow switch DP03 provides a very cost effective yet flexible way to monitor flows.
In the standard version, the device is completely made of plastic. Special variants allow the combination with metal materials and thus expand the range of applications.
