Set Lo Limit Flow Switch Point

Enter Setup Mode (see page 3). Press ON
repeatedly until the display shows “gpm” or “lpm”
in the upper right corner and “LO L” in the center.
See Figure 8. Press 

or 

Δ

to set the flow rate at

which the Normally Open switch contact will
close. Press ON when desired value is displayed.

until the

display shows “OFF”. 
Setup Mode will continue unless you exit.

Set Hi Limit Flow Switch Point

Enter Setup Mode (see page 3). Press ON
repeatedly until the display shows “gpm” or “lpm”
in the upper right corner and “HI L” in the center.

the upper right corner and “LO L” in the center.
See Figure 10. Press 

or

Setup Mode will continue unless you exit.

Switch Set Points

All switch set points are turned off when shipped from the factory.

The switch actuates when sensed value(s) fall below

low level set point(s) and/or sensed values rise above high level set point(s). The switch returns to normal state when the
process fluid reaches programmed flow and/or temperature conditions. There is a 2 second delay to prevent switch chatter.
Any or all of the switches may be disabled or enabled at any time. An internal programming check prevents conflicting low
and high switch values. 

Always set the flow switching points using the same units as normal operating units.
