This SPST-NO (Single Pole Single Throw Normally Open) switch integrates seamlessly into industrial automation, HVAC systems, and process control applications where flow verification is critical for operational safety and efficiency. The switch solves the problem of undetected flow starvation, system blockages, and pump failures by providing instantaneous electrical signal generation when fluid velocity meets or exceeds the preset threshold.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eProduct Overview\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe TE CONNECTIVITY FS Series Flow Switch operates on the principle of turbine or paddle wheel detection, where fluid flow causes internal mechanical movement that triggers the electrical contact closure. The 22 mm port size accommodates standard industrial piping connections, making integration straightforward into existing hydraulic circuits. At 10 bar maximum operating pressure, this switch is engineered for mid-range industrial applications including cooling water systems, lubrication circuits, and secondary hydraulic loops where cost-effectiveness meets reliability requirements. The SPST-NO configuration means the switch contacts are normally open and close only when flow is detected, providing fail-safe operation in critical monitoring scenarios.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe 250 Vac, 3 A electrical rating enables direct connection to standard industrial control circuits without additional relay interfaces for most applications. This model features robust construction with stainless steel or corrosion-resistant internals, ensuring extended service life in demanding environments. The switch provides repeatable, hysteresis-controlled switching behavior, minimizing nuisance trips from flow turbulence while maintaining sensitivity to genuine flow cessation. Installation is straightforward with standard NPT or ISO port threads, and the compact design allows retrofit into space-constrained applications without extensive system modifications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eKey

begins with selecting the appropriate port orientation based on your system's flow direction and ensuring the 22 mm threaded ports align with existing piping connections. Use thread sealant tape or compatible pipe dope on NPT connections to prevent leakage, then hand-tighten followed by wrench tightening to firm resistance without over-torquing, which can damage the housing. Mount the switch in a vertical or horizontal orientation as specified in your system design, ensuring the internal paddle wheel or turbine can rotate freely without obstruction from debris or sediment. Before pressurizing the system, verify that the electrical connections match your control panel voltage requirements (250 Vac) and that the 3 A contact rating is adequate for your load, using a relay if higher current is needed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eOnce installed, adjust the flow threshold using the integrated adjustment mechanism to match your system's minimum required flow rate, typically set 10-15 percent above normal operating flow to prevent nuisance trips. Connect the NO (normally open) contact terminals to your PLC input or alarm circuit, ensuring proper polarity and using shielded cable for EMI-sensitive environments. Perform a commissioning test by gradually increasing system pressure and flow, confirming that the switch contact closes at the preset threshold and remains stable during normal operation. Establish a maintenance schedule to inspect the switch quarterly for debris accumulation, corrosion, or mechanical wear, and flush the system if sediment buildup is observed. Document the switch settings and calibration data for future reference and troubleshooting purposes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cdetails\u003e\n\u003csummary\u003eWhat is the difference between SPST-NO and SPDT flow switch configurations?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSPST-NO (Single Pole Single Throw Normally Open) switches have one contact pair that remains open until flow is detected, then closes to complete a circuit. SPDT (Single Pole Double Throw) switches have two contact pairs, allowing simultaneous control of normally open and normally closed circuits. The FS Series SPST-NO configuration is ideal for fail-safe applications where you want the alarm or shutdown circuit to activate only when flow is present, preventing false alarms from electrical noise or power fluctuations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\n\u003cdetails\u003e\n\u003csummary\u003eCan this flow switch handle mineral oil, synthetic hydraulic fluid, and water-based coolants?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes, the TE CONNECTIVITY FS Series is compatible with standard mineral oils, synthetic hydraulic fluids (ISO VG 32-68), and water-based coolants commonly used in industrial applications. The corrosion-resistant housing and internal components are engineered to resist degradation from these fluid types. However, avoid using the switch with highly viscous fluids above ISO VG 100 or specialty fluids containing aggressive solvents without consulting TE CONNECTIVITY technical documentation, as these may affect switching sensitivity or seal longevity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\n\u003cdetails\u003e\n\u003csummary\u003eWhat flow rate range does this switch detect, and is it adjustable?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe FS Series typically detects flow rates between 0.5 and 5 GPM depending on fluid viscosity, temperature, and system pressure. The switch features an adjustable threshold mechanism allowing you to set the minimum flow rate at which contacts close, usually with a range of plus or minus 20 percent from the factory preset. Heavier fluids require higher flow velocities to trigger the switch, while lighter fluids may trigger at lower velocities. Consult the product datasheet for your specific fluid type to determine the appropriate adjustment range.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\n\u003cdetails\u003e\n\u003csummary\u003eIs this switch suitable for high-temperature applications above 60 degrees Celsius?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe standard TE CONNECTIVITY FS Series is rated for -10 to 60 degrees Celsius. For applications requiring higher temperature operation, contact TE CONNECTIVITY or The Tech Depot to inquire about specialized variants with heat-resistant seals and electronics rated to 80 or 100 degrees Celsius. High-temperature versions may have different part numbers and pricing, so verification before purchase is essential for critical applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\n\u003cdetails\u003e\n\u003csummary\u003eHow do I prevent nuisance trips from pressure spikes without actual flow?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe FS Series incorporates hysteresis control, which requires sustained flow over a minimum time period before contacts close, preventing single pressure spikes from triggering false alarms. During commissioning, adjust the threshold slightly above your normal operating flow rate to provide a safety margin. If nuisance trips persist, verify that your system doesn't have excessive pressure oscillations from pump pulsation or check valve chatter, and consider installing a small accumulator or damping orifice upstream of the switch to smooth pressure transients.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\n\u003cdetails\u003e\n\u003csummary\u003eWhen will I receive my order?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOrders are dispatched within 1-5 business days from our Bengaluru warehouse.
