Product Introduction:
The FR12C Electronic Flow Switch is a versatile thermal dispersion sensor designed for reliable flow monitoring in liquid and gas systems. Ideal for applications like pump dry run protection, coolant flow control, and industrial process monitoring, it features no moving parts for minimal maintenance and long service life.
Product Principle:
Based on the thermal principle, the sensor uses two resistors: one heated (detection resistor) and one unheated (reference resistor). As the medium flows, heat is carried away from the detection resistor, changing its resistance. The difference between the two resistors is used to determine flow velocity, providing accurate on/off switching signals.
- Wide Application: Suitable for water, oil, air, and corrosive media (up to 100bar pressure).
- Adjustable Setpoint: Manual calibration via potentiometer for custom flow thresholds (1-150 cm/s for water, 3-300 cm/s for oil, 20-2000 cm/s for air).
- LED Indication: 6-color LEDs display flow status (red: below setpoint; yellow: at setpoint; green: above setpoint).
- Robust Design: IP67 protection, anti-corrosive materials (304/316 stainless steel wetted parts), and compact size (237mm length, 0.8kg weight).
- Easy Installation: Threaded G1/2 interface fits standard pipelines; supports both horizontal and vertical mounting.
