FS-380 – Series Flow Switch

This rugged inline flow switch uses 100 micron filtration and are less susceptible to clogging than other high-pressure inline flow switches. The one-piece magnetic PPS composite piston makes the FS-380 ideal for high-pressure applications such as industrial cleaning equipment. The FS-380 is also an excellent choice for semicon cooling applications where simple design and reliable operation are required.

Applications:

• Electronic Equipment: Laser Heads, Welders, Power Supplies, High Speed Spindles, X-Ray Tubes, Semiconductor Equipment
• Bearings or Gears: Presses, Rotating Equipment, Conveyors, Machine Tools, Robotics
• Processing & Dispensing Equipment: Water Purifications and Filtering, X-Ray Film Processing, Beverage Dispensing, Chemical Additives, Gas Sampling, Distilling.

Principle

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 contacts “snap” 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.
