HONEYWELL WATER FLOW SWITCH

Honeywell WFS-1001-H Water Flow Switch

Paddle-type liquid flow switch designed for HVAC, chilled water and water circulation systems, providing reliable flow detection and switching when liquid flow rises above or falls below the adjusted flow rate.

WFS-1001-H 1-Inch Connection SPDT 1 MPa Max. 100°C

💧 Honeywell Water Flow Switch

The Honeywell WFS-1001-H is a paddle-type water flow switch designed to monitor liquid flow through piping systems.

When the liquid flow rate rises above or falls below the adjusted switching point, the internal SPDT switching mechanism can change the electrical circuit state. This allows the flow switch to be integrated with pumps, chillers, HVAC controls and other compatible equipment.

Typical Function:

💧 Detect Liquid Flow    ⚡ Change Electrical Contact    ❄️ Protect HVAC Equipment    🔄 Monitor Water Circulation

🔄 How the Flow Switch Works

1 💧 Liquid Flows
Water or compatible liquid moves through the pipeline.
2 ➡️ Paddle Moves
Liquid flow creates force against the internal paddle mechanism.
3 ⚡ Switch Activates
The SPDT electrical contact changes state at the adjusted flow point.
4 🛡️ Equipment Responds
The signal can be used by compatible HVAC or equipment control circuits.

⭐ Key Features

💧 Paddle-Type Detection Mechanical paddle responds directly to liquid movement inside the pipeline.
⚡ SPDT Switching Allows one circuit to open while another closes according to the flow condition.
🔧 Adjustable Flow Response Designed to switch according to the selected flow setting and installation conditions.
🌡️ Up to 100°C Fluid Suitable for compatible water systems with fluid temperatures up to 100°C.
💪 High Pressure Capability Rated for operating pressure up to approximately 1 MPa.
🏢 HVAC Application Suitable for compatible chilled water, air-conditioning and water circulation systems.

🏭 Typical Applications

❄️ Chilled Water Systems Flow monitoring in compatible HVAC chilled-water circuits.
🏢 HVAC Systems Water flow detection for commercial air-conditioning and building services.
🧊 Chillers Can provide a flow-status signal to compatible chiller control or protection circuits.
🔄 Water Circulation Suitable for monitoring circulation through compatible pumps and piping systems.
🔥 Heating Water Systems Suitable for compatible circulating-water heating applications within the specified temperature limits.
🏭 Industrial Water Systems Liquid-flow monitoring for compatible non-hazardous industrial water applications.

🛡️ Why Use a Flow Switch?

A flow switch allows the control system to confirm whether water circulation is present before or during equipment operation.

In HVAC applications, this signal can be incorporated into the equipment's control or interlock logic to help prevent operation under an unexpected no-flow or low-flow condition.

Common Control Logic:

Pump Starts → Water Flows → Paddle Moves → Flow Switch Changes Contact → Control System Receives Flow Status

💦 Fluid Compatibility

The Honeywell WFS Series is designed for water and compatible liquids that are not harmful to brass and phosphor bronze and are not classified as hazardous fluids.

Honeywell also states that the WFS Series may be used with liquids containing relatively high salt or chlorine content, subject to the manufacturer's application requirements.

🔧 Installation & Selection Notes

➡️ Check Flow Direction Install according to the flow direction indicated on the flow switch.
📏 Check Pipe Size Confirm that the selected paddle and installation arrangement are suitable for the pipeline.
💧 Confirm Fluid Use only with compatible non-hazardous liquids within the specified operating limits.
⚡ Verify Electrical Load Confirm the contact rating on the actual product and manufacturer documentation before wiring.
⚠️ Important: The Honeywell WFS Series is designed as an operating control. Where failure of the flow control could cause injury or property damage, Honeywell advises using additional safety or supervisory protection.
