Description

The Model 2600 Flow Switch has been designed to shut off an electrical device if process flow slows. A typical application would be to protect a pump from running dry or pumping against a closed valve.

The low-drag 5-bladed Halar rotor has a single permanent magnet encapsulated into one blade. As the magnet passes by the Hall-effect transducer, an output pulse is generated. When the pulse frequency drops below a factory preset value corresponding to 0.5 ft/sec, an internal relay is actuated.
