Series FTS Flow Thermal Switch is especially designed, for all types of cooling
systems, as a reliable alternative to failure prone mechanical flow switches. The
Flow Thermal Switch continually samples the temperature of the coolant and
adjusts the low flow setpoint automatically, providing a solid state switch should
the coolant flow rate fall below the setpoint value. In addition, the Flow Thermal
Switch will provide an alarm output should the coolant temperature rise above
acceptable levels. You have double protection with the FTS.

MAINTENANCE
Upon final installation of the Series FTS Flow Switch, no routine maintenance is
required. A periodic check of the system calibration is recommended. The Series
FTS Flow Switch is not field serviceable and should be returned if repair is
needed (field repair should not be attempted and may void warranty). Be sure to
include a brief description of the problem plus any relevant application notes.
