Flow Switch ℹ️ A flow switch is a device that monitors the flow rate of a fluid (liquid or gas) in a pipe or duct. It's designed to detect changes in flow rate and trigger an alarm or control signal when a predetermined setpoint is reached. Types of Flow Switches 1. *Paddle Flow Switch*: Uses a paddle or vane to detect flow. 2. *Magnetic Flow Switch*: Employs a magnetic field to detect flow. 3. *Vortex Flow Switch*: Detects flow-induced vortex shedding. 4. *Thermal Flow Switch*: Measures tempera

Pressure Switch Types There are two different types of pressure switches: electromechanical and solid-state. Electromechanical pressure switches all have traditional style mechanical switches with moving parts. There are a variety of different types of transducers that are used to mechanically operate the switch such as the Diaphragm, and Bourdon type. Diaphragm switches use a metal diaphragm to operate the switch. Bourdon tube switches use a bourdon tube to operate the switch. Solid-state press
