Switch FCM Piston
The sensitive element of FCM Flow switches is a calibrated magnetic piston that, pushed by the moving fluid, intercepts a Reed electric contact housed in the electric head, which is fixed to the flow switch body by means of a slip joint. This peculiarity allows to easily replace the contact without hydraulically removing the instrument. Version FCM 15 GV was conceived to work vertically with the flow moving upwards. Version FCM 15 GO may also be mounted horizontally. Two magnets housed outside the flow chamber in this case guarantee the piston return.
