Series FA60 Flow Alarm
The MPB Series FA60 Flow Alarm will give a switched output at a predetermined flow, i.e. 1, 2, 4, 5, 8, 10, 12 or 24 L/min.
The FA60 Flow Alarm, being a low-pressure drop device, can be positioned either in-line or on a bypass system.
Typical applications include pump failure alarm and detection of filter blockages etc.
The principle of operation is quite simple:-
Normal flow will lift the float up into the flow tube, but when the flow falls below a pre-set level the float drops and a magnet held within the float triggers a reed switch.
