   Thermal Flow Switch Monitor - Aysix CF Series

The Thermal Flow Switch Monitor Aysix CF line is based on the principle of thermal dispersion. A typical configuration uses two platinum resistance Temperature Detectors (RTD's) set within the tip of the sensor. One RTD is heated a few degrees above the temperature of the medium and the other RTD is used as a reference, sensing the actual process temperature. The second RTD also monitors the temperature of the medium, as any changes in temperature must be compensated for in the first RTD. As the process medium flows over the tip of the sensor it disperses some of the heat from the first RTD. The temperature change between the two RTDs signals the probe's electronics and the switch changes state once the set point has been reached. For the CF 420 Thermal Flow Switch Monitor, the microprocessor-based electronics constantly updates and reviews the signals received, in return putting out a 4-20mA analog output signal, which is proportional to the flow rate.

Thermal Flow Switch Monitor Models:

  • CF 12AC
  • CF 12DC
  • CF 420
  • F 420 - RCF 420

Thermal Flow Switch Monitor Introduction:

The Aysix versatile and intelligent line of Thermal Dispersion Flow Switch Monitors are compact switches, with no moving parts, that can monitor and control the flow of liquid, air, and gas in pipes and ducts. They can also be used for single point level control of liquid or for interface detection between mediums. Sitron's series of flow switches are available in five different models that provide for different power supply, output, environmental and connection requirements.

Thermal Flow Switch Monitor Features:

  • Simple to install & low in cost
  • No moving parts-maintenance free reliability
  • Optimal temperature compensation - unaffected by temperature gradient
  • Can operate in temperatures up to 248ºF (120ºC)
  • Have a maximum working pressure of 4500 PSI (300 bar).
  • Choice of output signal
  • Chain of 8 LED's-Integrated flow rate/set point indication
  • Fast response time for flow or level (Adjustable from 1-10 seconds)
  • Excellent low flow sensitivity
  • Can be coated for aggressive mediums
  • Insensitive to dirt and most particles
  • Available in EX-Proof version
  • Available in threaded, flange, sanitary and adjustable insertion length connections

Thermal Flow Switch Monitor CF 12AC:


The Aysix CF 12AC is a Thermal Flow Switch Monitor designed to monitor flow status and also used to detect level of liquids, air and gas. A chain of 8 LED's gives the user a visual indication of the flow rate. In addition, there is also a di-chromatic LED, which shows the switch point status of the unit. The sensing element and connection of the CF 12AC is made with 316 S.S. and the enclosure is glass filled nylon. The CF 12AC can be made with a great variety of process connections such as threaded, flange, or sanitary and can be coated when necessary.

This model is also available in an Explosion Proof (EX) version with an aluminum enclosure, designed to detect flow and level of liquids and gas in hazardous environments.
