Applications requiring a constantly monitored flow of cooling or
cleaning water now have the perfect solution with the launch of the new
PF3W Digital Flow Switch Series from the world leaders in pneumatics -
SMC.
Developed following the success of SMC’s PF2W flow switch range, their
R&D engineers have now taken these flow switches to a new level by
improving both their design and operating performance.
Depending on the selected model, the new Series PF3W is now up to 40%
smaller in volume than the previous range thereby offering improved
piping space and flexibility.
Designed to work with fluids up to 90ºC, these switches incorporate an
in-built temperature sensor so that both flow and fluid temperature can
be effectively monitored at the same time. According to SMC engineers,
pressure losses have also been reduced when compared to the previous
range and the new PF3W can also be used with ethylene glycol operating
fluid making these switches ideal for use in chiller type applications.
Further improvements include the addition of two screens incorporating
three colour numerical displays which can also be rotated in both
clockwise and anti-clockwise directions thereby offering even better
display visibility during operation.
Available as non grease type and with analogue output if required, the
new Series PF3W range meets IP 65 enclosure protection standards and are
both RoHS and CE compliant.
