Flow Switches
for Turbulent Flow

Specialized configurations for violent flows, turbulence, and cavitation. PEECO offers multiple solutions to handle the most demanding flow conditions.

Hinged Connection

PEECO Hinged Connection with Special Paddle

This design utilizes a hinge-pin which allows the paddle to move through a 90° travel, swinging up to a horizontal position. It is only effective for actuation at the lower end of the flow spectrum — higher flows will disengage the bias spring.

  • Not recommended for lines smaller than 6″ (hinging configuration occupies first 2″ of stem and paddle)
  • For screwed mounting: use thread-o-let only
  • For flanged mountings: minimum 4-1/2″ from face of mounting flange to top I.D. of pipe (standard); can be increased to maximum 6″
