Flow switch (Type KPC 108-L-U/S)
Monitors the water flow volume through the evaporator and shuts the device down completely if the min. water
quantity is reached.
Flow switch VHS07 M2 KKTKR01
SIKA flow switches are designed for minimum or maximum monitoring of fluid flows.
The designation of the flow switches consists of the name of product lines
VHS and type marking 01, 05, 06, and 07 for direct installation (insertion
type) into existing piping systems.
Flow switches of the product lines VHS… are technically advanced with time.
This applies to switching accuracy, function, and safe operation of the
instrument.
To ensure safe operation of the instrument requires competent and safety-
observing personnel.
Caution: Danger to life through electrical voltage !
Switch off the voltage supply before you connect leads of
the mains cable.
ATTENTION:
The maximum electrical contact capacity indicated onto
the type shield must not be exceeded, otherwise the reed
contact, which is integrated in the switching unit, will be
damaged.
The switching capacity is reduced with inductive loads.
General Installation Instructions
At first clean the piping system where the flow switch should be installed
and remove any magnetic particles such as weld spatters.
Install the switch only vertically, max. deviation is 45° (fig.1).
There is an arrow on the flow switch. Make absolutely sure that this arrow
is parallel with the pipe axis and points into flow direction (fig.2).
Make sure that there are no magnetic fields close to the flow switch. Such
fields can affect the proper function of the instrument.
Screw on the union nut made of brass or stainless steel (version VHS) with
a maximum torque of 30 Nm.
