High Velocity
Flow Switches

The Paddle Shroud design is ideal for violent flows. The paddle shroud re-enforces the stem and paddle and relieves stress concentration around the screws. Available on all models except tee styles.

The symmetrically placed perforations help reduce turbulence and cavitation. Excessive turbulence and build-up of vacuum behind the paddle is prevented.

The Rounded Paddle features a contoured, rounded leading edge that reduces drag forces and eliminates the sharp corners that can catch debris or fibrous material in the flow stream. Ideal for applications with particulate-laden or fibrous fluids at elevated velocities.

Ideal for violent flows or heavy paddles. Pivot at the base of the switch with stem and paddle hanging on the pivot. Can be used for flow and reverse flow applications. Mandatory for stem extensions over 24″. Cannot be used in small tees.
