Using this device in a compressed air system significantly reduces its expected lifespan, as it can lead to an immediate pressure loss at the piston, which lacks damping. Piston flow switches monitor low flow rates for liquids. A magnetized piston is displaced by the flow against a spring. This process is proportional to the flow rate. At the desired point within the control range, there is a reed switch on the outside. When the current flow rate is above or below the set point, a signal is generated. It features high pressure and high temperature capabilities, adjustable switching points with a scale, low flow switching capability, installation independent of position, and is made of brass.
