Item# FSW531

Liquid Micro-Flow Switches FSW531 FSW531
  • Economical
  • Extremely Low Flow
  • Pelton-Type Microturbine
  • Plastic or Metal Housing


  • Maximum Operating Temperature 55 {C} (131 {F})
  • Maximum Pressure Acetal: 6.9 bar (100 psig)
  • Maximum Switching Voltage 24 VDC
  • Minimum Operating Temperature 5 {C} (41 {F})

The FSW530 Series flow switches are capable of detecting extremely low liquid flow rates from 13 mL/minute up to 10 L/minute with a full scale switch accuracy of ±1.0% or better! A wide variety of fluids may be measured. Repeatable results are achieved using a patented pelton-type microturbine wheel. This proven design has been providing precision results since 1988 and has developed a well deserved reputation for continuous operational service for many years without failure. Because of the compact size and economical cost of these products, the FSW530 models are suitable for a wide variety of industrial, commercial, laboratory and OEM applications. Some sample applications include high/low alarms for hydrocarbon fluids, fuels, light oils, solvents, coolant, pesticides, mild acids, alkalis, and de-ionized water. Either plastic or metal construction may be selected.
