Specification Notes
1. Values listed are for reference only.
2. Actual performance may vary based on medium characteristics and installation environment.
3. Testing and calibration recommended before actual installation.
Usage Tips
Ensure no impurities in the medium, recommend installing filter at water inlet
Avoid installation in high vibration environments
Two-wire connection: Connect load in series between two signal wires, no polarity required
Ensure operating voltage does not exceed rating (Max 250V DC)
Keep magnetic materials away to prevent false triggering
Regularly inspect sensor status to ensure good contact
Load current must not exceed DC 0.3A, use relay for higher currents
Signal transmission distance should not exceed 50 meters, use shielded cable for long distances
Ensure arrow direction matches water flow direction during installation
Precautions
Avoid prolonged exposure to outdoor, humid or high-temperature environments.
Magnetic materials or magnetic fields may affect sensor performance.
Do not disassemble the product. Tampered products are not covered under warranty.
Reed switch is normally open type - contacts open when no water flow, close when water flows.
Do not directly switch high current loads; use relay for protection.
Always disconnect power before wiring for safety.
We reserve the right to update product specifications without prior notice.
