KOBOLD FPS flow switches are used wherever reliable control for min. or max. liquid flow is required. The flow switch operates on the paddle-bellows principle. The flowing medium exerts a force on the paddle and thereby actuates a micro switch. The interchangeable paddles, in conjunction with an external adjustment screw, allows for adjustment over a wide range of switching points and easy adaptation of the instrument to different pipe sizes. The internals of the instrument are separated from the process by the bellows making the FPS an excellent choice for dirty media. The FPS-6 series is a special design variation used when lower switching points are desirable.
