The flow meter and switch model DS02 works according to a modified variable area principle. The float is guided in a cylindrical measuring tube by means of a spring. The flowing medium moves the float in the flow direction. A Reed contact is mounted outside the meter in a sealed housing. When the float reaches the position of the Reed contact the switch will close. With higher flows the float moves further upward until it reaches a built-in float stop, still keeping the switch closed. This ensures a bistable switch function at any time. The Reed contact is adjustable over the full switching range of the meter.
