HOW TO ORDER Select appropriate symbols and build a model code number, as in example shown:
Note: Custom scales are available in any units and increments on special order

INITIAL SWITCH SETTING
No symbol = Lowest possible
Or, give setting(s) in GPM or LPM. Also a symbol
to indicate that accuracy is desired during increasing
flow (U) or decreasing flow (D). (2D would mean
that switch should actuate when flow rate decreases
to 2 GPM.) Settings are field adjustable.
