Liquid Flow Detection

Indication of correct flow direction on select models
Robust construction that maintains performance over time

Reliable Flow Monitoring for Forced Cooling Systems

Liquid Flow Indicators are engineered to provide clear, accurate confirmation of flow conditions in forced‑oil or water cooling systems. With durable construction, flexible installation, and switch options for alarms and control, these indicators help ensure cooling systems operate safely and efficiently.

Application Overview

These indicators are used in cooling systems that rely on forced oil or water circulation and need confirmation of proper flow rate, flow direction, or “pump on/pump off” conditions. They support control circuits, safety interlocks, and alarm triggering where accurate flow monitoring is essential.

What We Solve For

Cooling system failures can cause equipment overheating, reduced efficiency and unexpected outages. Liquid Flow Indicators help prevent these problems by providing:

  • Clear visibility of flow status

  • Optional switching for alarms or control

  • Indication of correct flow direction on select models

  • Robust construction that maintains performance over time

This ensures safer operation, better protection for critical assets, and fewer maintenance interruptions.
