Factory Outlets Highly Flexible & Adaptable HFS-25 Paddle Type Water Flow Switch

This is the HFS-25 vane-type (target-type) water flow switch, a core component for fluid control in industrial pipelines. Its core function is to monitor the liquid flow rate within the pipeline through mechanical sensing. When the flow rate reaches or falls below a set threshold, the switch contacts are triggered, enabling equipment interlocking protection or flow alarm. It is widely compatible with industrial fluid control systems.

Working Principle:

Employing a purely mechanical, non-electrical sensing design, the core logic is "fluid dynamic pressure drive - mechanical linkage - contact on/off":

I. As fluid flows along the pipeline, it impacts the stainless steel vane extending into the pipeline. The resulting dynamic pressure overcomes the spring preload, causing the vane to deflect.

II. The vane deflection is transmitted to the top microswitch via an internal linkage mechanism, triggering the single-pole double-throw (SPDT) contact.

III. When the flow rate drops to the reset threshold, the spring drives the vane back to its original position, and the contact automatically returns to its initial state.

IV. Different trigger flow rates can be set by adjusting the internal fine-tuning screw to adapt to diverse pipeline conditions.

Product Features:

1) High Reliability: Purely mechanical structure, no electronic components, unaffected by electromagnetic interference or lightning surges, zero drift in high-humidity, dusty industrial environments, suitable as a safety redundancy component for critical systems;

2) Flexible Adaptability: Equipped with multiple sizes of stainless steel blades (compatible with 1"~6" pipe diameters), supporting precise flow threshold adjustment to meet different pipeline flow control needs;

3) Easy Installation: Threaded direct connection design, no complex wiring required, includes installation accessories, allowing for quick pipeline integration and maintenance-free operation;

4) Certification and Compliance: CE certified, compliant with industrial electrical safety standards, suitable for most domestic and international industrial scenarios.
