Series FA50 Flow Alarm
The MPB Series FA50 Flow Alarm offers a flowmeter and adjustable flow alarm system within the same unit.
The FA50 Flow Alarm is suitable for most common process liquids and gases and utilises the variable area flowmeter principle of operation, namely, as flow increases the float rises within a tapered flow tube and hence the flow rate can be read directly and alarm points set.
The alarm system uses the reed switch principle and is triggered by a small magnet housed within the float.
