FS-550 Series – High Pressure, Metal
Paddle Switch
Pipe Line Size: 1-1/4˝ and Up
Primary Construction Material: Stainless Steel or Brass
Setting Type: Fixed
Standard FS-550 switches sense liquid flow in either direction to monitor flow/no-flow
conditions. They are supplied in two paddle lengths. The paddle is trimmed during
installation to permit switch actuation at the desired flow rate. As flow increases in
a pipe, the paddle of the switch pivots to move out of the liquid path, producing less
than 3 PSIG of pressure drop regardless of pipe size.

Standard Actuation and De-actuation Set Points
The Table below indicates paddle lengths which achieve switch actuation for specific
flow rates. Approximate pipe line sizes are marked on paddle.
All flow rate tests for the above table were conducted with the switch installed in a
standard “T” fitting. For calculation of flow rates in pipe sizes larger than 5˝, a flow
velocity of approximately 0.5 ft. per sec. actuates the switch with a full length (5˝ )
paddle. The paddle can be trimmed to achieve different actuation points.
How To Order – Standard Models
Select switch type, paddle length and housing material, then specify adjacent part
number.
Note: The FS-550 Switch is not recommended for use with 1˝ plastic tees.
