*: The applicable fluid list should be used as a guide.
1- Operate fluids with electric conductivity of 5
μ
S/cm or more.
Note that this product can not be used for fluids with low conductivity.
This product cannot be used for fluids that do not conduct electricity such as De-ionized water and oil.
The electric conductivity is a ratio which shows how easily the electricity flows.
2- If insulating material gets stuck inside of the piping, it may cause an error.
Remove the foreign material stuck inside of the piping with a brush for washing test tubes so that internal rubber piping
will not be damaged.
3- If conductive materials such as metal get stuck to the interior surface in the piping, the switch may
malfunction.
Remove the foreign material as mentioned above.
4- If stray electrical currents are flowing through the fluid to be measured, the switch may malfunction.
Beware that electrical leakage currents may be generated by equipment around the flow sensor such as pumps, valves
and metal piping when this equipment is at different electrical potentials in relation to earth ground.
