GEMS’ line of flow switches features a broad range of configurations for use in liquids or gases. At preset rates, ranging from 50 cc/min. to 100 GPM, GEMS switches will initiate alarm actuation or automatic shut-down of a system.
These switches feature high quality, corrosion-resistant materials for use in the toughest environments. Material choices, ranging from stainless steel to Ryton®, offer vast chemical compatibility. Versions include switches with fixed or adjustable actuation settings, models for viscosity compensation or high pressures, in-line models and designs to satisfy any mounting or space requirement.
The versatile GEMS Flow Switch line utilizes four basic operating principles. This catalog is organized into four operational types: Piston, Shuttle, Paddle and Electronic. The Shuttle models are for use with high flow rates; the Piston types are designed for low flow rates; the Paddle for large line sizes and the Electronic switches encompass state-of-the-art electronics and positive visual indication.
