In-Line Flow Switches
P3 Series
Installation
All NPT threads should be installed using a suitable
thread sealant (Teflon tape or Permatex “No more
Leaks”). Sealant must be kept out of unit during
installation. Ten diameters of straight run piping are
recommended upstream and downstream of the flow
sensor.
P3 Flow Switches Can be Mounted In
Various Positions
Flow settings are based on a vertical
position (inlet port down), using water at
+70°F on increasing flow. Some variation
in set point actuation will occur in other
mounting orientations.
