The operating principle bases on a free-floating magnetic piston, which Responds only to the motion of fluid within the pipeline, not to static or system pressure. In the presence of fluid flow, controlled movement of the piston actuates an external hermetically sealed reed switch, thus producing the required signal which can be used to actuate audible or visual alarms as well as relays or other.
