Product catalog summary
Models:
The document describes two models of flap operated flow switches: type 1200T/1200B and type 1220T/1220B.
Use:
These flow switches are designed to detect loss or excess of liquid flow in horizontal pipes with a minimum diameter of 50mm.
Principle:
The flow switch operates using a hinged flap that actuates a rod with a magnet. This magnet triggers another magnet connected to an electrical switch, which sends an alarm signal. The switch is set for a specific flow rate, which must be specified by the customer.
Description:
  • Type 1200: Simplest design, requires customer to drill and weld a connection to the pipe. Available with threaded (1200T) or flanged (1200B) connections.
  • Type 1220: Comes pre-mounted on a connection bushing, ready to bolt onto existing flanged pipelines.
Technical Data:
Maximum operating conditions include a pressure of 16 bar and a temperature of 120°C, extendable to 250°C with a heat screen option.
Junction Box Options:
  • Standard (H1): Light alloy box, IP54 rating.
  • Sealed (H3): Light alloy, IP65 rating.
  • Explosion-Proof (H2): ATEX certified, suitable for hazardous environments.
Installation and Maintenance:
The flow monitor should be installed on a horizontal pipe section, ensuring vertical alignment. Minimal maintenance is required, but cleanliness should be maintained.
Ordering Information:
The document provides a detailed code system for ordering, specifying instrument type, connection type, body and flap materials, switching mode, housing type, alarm type, and additional options.
Contact Types and Spares:
Various contact types and spare parts are available, including bistable changeover SPDT and pneumatic contacts.

Technical Data Sheet 50466-632 July 2017 Flow Switches Flap operated flow switches Series 1200… and 1220... ● type 1200T/1200B ● type 1220T/1220B USE The type 1200 and 1220 flow switches are designed to detect any loss or excess of liquid flow within a horizontal pipe of minimum diameter 50mm. PRINCIPLE A hinged flap, positioned perpendicular to the direction of the fluid flow, actuates a rod, which hold a magnet at its upper end. This magnet actuates another magnet connected to an electrical switch, which deliver an alarm signal. The switch is set for a given flow named "the switch flow". (while ordering, customer must mentioned if this switching flow is need while flow is increasing or decreasing"). DESCRIPTION The instrument is available in two standard versions:  TYPE 1200: This is the simplest design, directly connected to the customer piping, which must drill its pipe and weld a threaded or flanged supplied tube. 1200 is delivered either with a screwed connection mode to the pipeline (1200T), either a flanged connection type (1200B).  TYPE 1220: Delivered already mounted on a connection bushing (pipe section), supplied complete with threaded or flanged connection type. This design should be simply bolt on an existing pipe line already fitted with flanges. Houdec Innovat
