How It Works: A Simple, Proven Mechanism

The operation of this paddle flow sensor is elegantly mechanical and reliable:

⒈Fluid Dynamics: As liquid flows through the pipe, it encounters a flexible paddle (also known as a vane or target).

⒉Deflection: When the flow rate reaches a sufficient velocity, the force of the fluid pushes the paddle to one side.

⒊Activation: This deflection moves an arm connected to a high-quality internal micro-switch assembly.

⒋Signal Output: The switch changes state, typically providing a versatile Single Pole Double Throw (SPDT) electrical contact that can be wired into control panels, alarms, or interlocking systems.

This straightforward principle ensures consistent, repeatable action points, providing dependable status updates to your control system without relying on complex electronics that might be susceptible to power fluctuations or interference.
