The FS-6 flow switch range provides economical flow protection for a wide range of industrial applications such as photocopiers, heavy-duty floor cleaners and industrial dishwashers. The European integral G 1/4″ connections obviate the need for additional adaptors and the design allows for easy mounting.
When the magnetic field of permanent magnet inside the shuttle or piston is moved into the proximity of the reed switch inside the stationary stem, the reed switch "snaps" the contact together and closes the electrical circuit. When the magnetic field is moved away from the reed switch, the reed switch contacts move apart and the circuit is opened.
