By winning the ‘iF product design award’ for its model PSD-30 pressure switch, WIKA has already confirmed the successful design and the excellent functionality of its switch family. Adding to this, the FSD-3 enables the reliable and process-safe monitoring of the flow of liquid media. When the flow is above or below the set value, the switching output activates the downstream regulator or control. Damage and production losses through degradation of pumps, tools and spindles can thus be avoided. The robust LED display has been designed using 9 mm high characters, the largest possible, and with a slight incline in order to make reading the flow as easy as possible from a greater distance.
The 3-key operation makes simple, intuitive menu navigation possible, with no need for additional assistance. The menu navigation conforms to the VDMA standard.
The FSD-3 operates on the basis of the calorimetric measuring principle. This guarantees wear-free flow measurement without any moving parts in the medium. The medium temperature can be monitored by means of a temperature output, without the need to equip another measuring location. The optional diagnostic function reliably outputs a warning when a sensor defect is detected. The switching output can be used to trigger a downstream safety function.
