Operation

When no flow is present the free magnetic piston rests on the bottom of the bypass bore. When flow is established the piston is forced upward and actuates the reed switch. The bypass flow is controlled by manual adjustment of the flow cotrol vane. When flow decreases the piston moves downward and the reed switch deactuates. The adjustment assemply is then locked down to prevent any inadvertent readjustment.
500 BYPASS HIGH PRESSURE
Actuation Points for air at 68° F and 14.7 PSIA with increasing flow
Deactuation (decreasing flow) averages 10% less than actuation (increasing flow)
Repeatability ±2%
Unit will pass greater flows
Corrections must be made for other gases, line pressure and temperatures. Please consult your representative or the factory.
