BFS-10-N / BFS-10-O Low-Flow Water Switches


The BFS-10-N and BFS-10-O flow switches from Barksdale monitor water and compatible liquids using a spring-loaded variable-area mechanism. The continuously adjustable switching point supports low-flow protection in cooling circuits, test systems and pump applications.

The N version has no local flow indication; the O version adds an optical display. Select the process connection, wetted material, contact arrangement and switching range to suit the application. Pressure capability depends strongly on the selected version.

Measuring Range:

0.005–0.06 to 60–150 L/min; selected ranges depend on model and connection.

Temperature Limit:

100 °C standard; 160 °C optional HT. Confirm the selected configuration.

Switch Type:

Adjustable magnetic reed flow switch; NO or change-over contacts according to model.

Mounting Orientation:

Any mounting position; observe flow direction and installation instructions.

Pressure Limit:

N: brass 300 bar (G1/4,G1/2), 250 bar (G1); SS 350 bar (G1/4,G1/2), 300 bar (G1). O: 16 bar (G1/4,G1/2), 10 bar (G1).

Accuracy:

±10% of full scale.

Body Material:

Brass or stainless steel; see datasheet for wetted components.

Enclosure Rating:

IP65 with DIN plug; IP67 with moulded cable, where specified.


Published standard order numbers identify connection, brass (MS) or stainless steel (SS), normally open (NO) or change-over (WE) contacts, and plug connection (ST). Specify the switching range in addition to the order number. Example: 0711-339, 2.0…7.0 L/min.

Switch contact ratings depend on connection size. The G1/4 version is rated 200 V / 1 A / 20 VA; consult the datasheet for larger connections and change-over ratings. The supplied operating instructions apply to N versions; contact us for O-version instructions and special options. Confirm availability when requesting a quotation.
