Function
The Caleffi Series 626 water flow switch detects the presence or absence
of flow in piping of heating, air conditioning, cooling and water treatment
systems as well as in pumping and process systems. In heating systems,
the flow switch is normally used to shut off the burner of the boiler whenever
there is no circulation of the carrier fluid in the boiler circuit. A lack of
circulation can damage criti
cal components and impair the operation of
temperature sensitive safety and protection devices.

General Characteristics
A stainless steel bellows separates the electrical and hydronic sections, preventing the possibility
of contact of the fluid with the electrical components. Stainless steel is used in the construction of
many key parts, including the bellows, which protects the switch from corrosion.
With a protection classification of NEMA type 5 (IP54), the switch can be used in particularly
humid and dusty environments. The cover is made of a special non-combustible plastic material.
The normally open and normally closed contacts on the switch enable any electrical device to be
switched on or off as required at the operating flow rate. The operating point can be easily adjusted
with the calibration screw.
Technical Characteristics
Connection size: 1” NPT male
Maximum operating pressure: 150 psig (10 bar)
Maximum temperature of the fluid: 250° F (120°C)
Minimum temperature of the fluid: -20° F (-30°C)
Maximum ambient temperature: 130° F (55°C)
Suitable for pipes: 1” to 8” (25 to 200 mm)
