Flow Detector Type FD

 

Description

The series FD flow detector, nominal size 12, detects a preset flow rate and can be used for various monitoring functions. Typically, the flow detector is used for mobile applications in which auxiliary actuators are supplied in parallel from one pressure source. This is required, for example, as a monitoring function for steering pumps in mobile machines.

Advantages
