Application(s): Pump Monitoring and Pump (motor) Protection Product Used: KAYDEN Classic 800 Series Flow – Level – Interface – Temperature Switch Description: Provide a rugged and reliable means for pump protection and monitoring. • Shut down the pump (motor) when the (pump) inlet line is dry / empty • Automatically re-start the pump when the flow of the process material is restored • Provide an alarm when blockages occur in the pipeline. • React to changes in the flow rate. Problem: It is difficult to find one device that can be configured for a wide variety of flow conditions and will not require frequent maintenance. To perform well in this application the flow switch must resist failures caused by: • Corrosion and / or “sludging” • Vibration • Water contamination - feed water and cooling water often contains sediment and high mineral content • Electromagnetic interference from motors (etc). • Difficult and/or controlled access points limit monitoring and daily maintenance |
