Where is a flow switch located?
The flow switch should be mounted six to seven feet above the ground. On horizontal pipe, it should be mounted on the top to avoid rust or particle accumulation from interfering with its operation. On vertical pipe, it should be mounted where there is an upward flow of water.
How does a flow switch work?
A flow switch operates by conveying a trip motion (relay, reed switch, paddle) to another machine within the system, usually a pump. The trip signal will indicate to the pump to turn on or turn off. It is necessary to provide damage protection and circuit cooling or adjust flow rates that are too high or too low.
What is water flow switch?
A waterflow switch is a device that detects movement of water in a pipe. For fire protection purposes, if water is flowing, there must be a fire. The Waterflow Switch is a mechanical-to-electrical Fire Alarm input device; it tells the fire alarm system that water is flowing in the sprinkler system.

What can a Q-12 flow switch be used for?
The Q-12 has several factory adjustable parameters that provide the flexibility to meet the requirements of almost any application. The Q-12 verifies fluid flow, typically in conjunction with another device. For example most of swimming pool salt chlorine generators use the Q-12 to verify sufficient flow before the generator is energized.
How does a Q-12 work in a hot tub?
The Q-12 verifies fluid flow, typically in conjunction with another device. For example most of swimming pool salt chlorine generators use the Q-12 to verify sufficient flow before the generator is energized. In a spa or hot tub the Q-12 ensures sufficient flow to prevent the water heater from a meltdown.
What kind of relays are used in flow switch pool?
Switch contacts have been tested with small relays and 30A J-C relay inductive driving coils at 120/240VAC to 500,000 operations without failure.
