Bulletin F-HFO
Series HFO Flow Alarms are typically used to
make or break a set of electrical contacts to
signal a limit setting. They may be used to turn
on a warning light, sound a bell or horn, or even
to shut down a process. The switches on the
flow alarm can be configured to open or close a
contact for an increasing or decreasing set
point. Decreasing flow set points may be
located anywhere in the lower 2/3 of the scale
while increasing set points may be located
anywhere in the upper 2/3 of the scale.
Note: Refer to Series HF In-Line Flow Monitor,
Bulletin F-55, “Installation and Operating
Instructions” for installation, operation, and
cleaning instructions for the basic flow monitor
cartridge (included). The following instructions
are specifically for the Series HFO Flow Alarm
