The Item may vary from picture as manufacture may change model appearance. All information, including description, specifications and features are from a manufacturers data sheet or manual and are subject to change without notice. Meaning that all information included in the description, specifications and features What you see is what you get! If it doesn’t show it you probably won’t get it! New Proteus Industries, Inc. 100/150 Series Flow Switch * Flow Range: 1.5 – 12 GPM/6 – 45 LPM * Faceplate Material: Clear Polysulfone * Temperature Range: 100° Celsius/ 212° Fahrenheit * Pressure Range: 100 PSI/ 690 kPA * Proteus Flow Switches monitor cooling fluids or other liquid flows and trip an internal relay if the flow rate falls below an adjustable trip point. The relay may be used to shut down equipment or sound an alarm before damage is done to valuable equipment and products. * Unlike pressure sensors, the Proteus switch provides a true flow interlock – it will not be fooled by downstream blockages that maintain pressure while stopping flow. The switch also differs from traditional flow switch designs as particle buildup cannot jam it in the “flow OK†position. * Fluid flowing through the switch spins a magnetic rotor to induce voltage in a coil. A simple electronic circuit compares the measured voltage to a user-elected trip voltage. When the measured voltage is above the selected trip voltage a relay is held in its active position. If the measured voltage falls below the selected trip voltage or when fluid stops flowing, the relay is switched off. The change of state of the relay contacts is used to trigger your interlock or alarm system. * The Proteus active design combats the problem of particle buildup, which can jam many other flow switch types. Because the rotor is constantly spinning, it cleans itself of most buildup. In the very unlikely event that an object is the line interferes with the rotor, the rotor stops turning, and the switch goes to the alarm condition. When the Proteus flow switch shows fluid is flowing, there is always flow through the switch. * The clear polysulfone faceplate allows the rotor to be viewed, telling you at a glance if your cooling fluid is turned on. Optional metal faceplates allow the operating range of brass and stainless steel versions to be increased to 250 PSI. * The faceplate may easily be removed to clean the flow chamber if necessary. No other maintenance os required. * Pressure drop across the flow switch is typically less than 6 PSI (0.4 bar) at the maximum flow rate. For pressure response curves, contact Technical Support at (***)-963-4163 or Joel.Kirby@cedar--rapids.com. * Typically 15% of selected trip flow rate. Hysteresis is the difference in the flow at which the switch is tripped by rising and falling flows. Some hysteresis is desirable to inhibit cycling if flow is near the trip point.
