The calorimetric flow switch is designed for the monitoring of thermally conductive liquids. The big advantage of this type of flow switch is the fact that it is usable also in explosive atmosphere.
Key technical properties Flow switch FS Ex 10/11/15/20 flow switch is certified for use in the following areas with explosive atmosphere: I M1 Ex ia I Ma II 1G Ex ia IIC T4..T6 Ga II 1D Ex ia IIIC Txx°C Da The flow switch for liquids is made in four versions. These are as follows: FS 10Ex – 1× status output (depending on flow velocity) FS 11Ex – 2× status output (depending on flow velocity) FS 15Ex – 2× status output (1× depending on flow velocity and 1× on temperature) FS 20Ex – 1× status output and 1× current output (depending on flow velocity) The flow rate is indicated by ten LEDs within the measurement range and you can select the boundary for making/breaking the contact in the same graduation. The measuring cycle takes from 4 seconds to 8 seconds with recommended measurement range 4 ÷ 150 cm/sec (for default setting, the measurement range is 4 ÷ 400cm/sec). If the piping is empty, the sensor behaves identically as in the case of zero flow rate. Two standard lengths of the bar type sensor are offered according to piping ID at the installation site, selecting either a bar type sensor 65 mm or 125 mm in length as needed. If the flow rate of medium is to be monitored in a pipe smaller than DN25 (or the flow velocity is below the sensor range for the given pipe diameter), it is advantageous to use an adapter block with the corresponding flow velocity and thereby ensure proper functioning and maintain the installation conditions. The adapters are designed for the short version of 65mm sensor with the use of direct neck with G½“ pipe thread. Individual designs of adapter blocks are as follows:
