4. Operating
Principle
In the cylindrical housing is located a float with an orifice. This float element is
raised by the medium flowing in, against the strength of a spring. Each float ele-
ment position corresponds to a flow value, which can be read off from the scale
mounted on the housing. Optionally, a float element with permanent magnet can
be mounted which activate a reed-contact mounted outside the body of the unit.
The operation of the contact succeeds contactlessly via magnetic force, i.e. the
contact is hermetically separated from the flowing medium. The type VKP is
equipped with a float element, which is provided with grooves on the exterior in
order to protect it against contamination caused by deposited particles. Thus the
danger of clamping the float element is substantially reduced and measuring
polluted liquids with a particle size of up to 400 µm is possible without problems.
