WIKA FSM-6100 Flow switch For industrial heat exchangers
Original price was: $500.00.$450.00Current price is: $450.00.
Typical Applications:
• Flow monitoring and protection of industrial heat exchangers
• Cooling and heating circuits in process and utility systems
• Flow detection for pumps, chillers, and thermal systems
• Industrial water and heat transfer applications requiring reliable flow switching
Not Recommended For:
• Continuous flow measurement requiring analog or digital output
• Highly contaminated fluids that may cause mechanical blockage
• Applications requiring precise flow rate indication
Selection Notes
• Confirm that a flow switch (on/off detection) meets your application requirements
• Designed for flow monitoring rather than continuous flow measurement
• Suitable for liquid flow detection in industrial thermal systems
• Verify process temperature, pressure, and connection compatibility
• Proper installation direction is critical for reliable switching
Why Choose the WIKA FSM-6100 Flow Switch
• Designed specifically for flow monitoring in industrial heat exchangers
• Reliable flow detection for cooling and heating system protection
• Robust construction for industrial process environments
• Ideal for pump protection and thermal system safety interlocks
Applications
- Heating, cooling, air-conditioning and water treatment plants
- Pumps and dosing systems
- Operational controls to prevent system failures in the absence of supply of water or liquid
Special features
- Switch point repeatability of ±5 % for reliable switching
- High-quality bellows and microswitch for a service life of > 500,000 cycles
- Rigid paddles from stainless steel to withstand pressure surges and high medium temperatures
