Flow Accessories

Flow systems often need more than a meter. A flow switch provides an alarm contact, a back pressure regulator controls upstream gas pressure, and a shutoff valve isolates a pipeline when triggered.

SL Measurement supplies flow accessories for these different duties. Select each component around the medium, operating conditions and the function required by your equipment.

Liquid flow switches for alarms and interlocks

The RCM Flo-Gard II liquid flow switch provides a contact signal when flow crosses a selected setpoint. Suitable applications include cooling-water circuits, chillers and compatible process-liquid systems.

Specify the normal operating flow, required switching point and electrical contact requirements. Body materials, seals and installation configuration must suit the liquid and operating environment.

Gas back pressure regulators

The KOFLOC 6800 series gas back pressure regulator controls pressure on the upstream side by releasing gas when pressure exceeds the selected setting.

For selection, provide the gas, required pressure setting, expected exhaust flow and downstream conditions. Confirm material compatibility and the required connection size for the selected model.

Emergency shutoff valves

The Tokico MB series emergency shutoff valve uses a carbon dioxide cartridge to drive the valve mechanism. Available configurations use different triggering arrangements, including electrical and line-pressure signals.

Selection requires the pipeline medium, pressure, temperature, connection details and intended shutdown sequence. Confirm the trigger, valve action and reset arrangement against the requirements of the complete installation.

Information to include with your enquiry

  • Required function: Flow alarm, upstream pressure regulation or pipeline shutoff.
  • Medium: Liquid or gas name, including relevant composition or additives.
  • Operating conditions: Normal and maximum pressure, temperature and flow.
  • Setpoint: Required switching flow or pressure setting, where applicable.
  • Connections: Pipe size, thread or flange standard and installation space.
  • Control interface: Contact rating, trigger signal, power supply or other equipment requirements.

Replacing an existing component?

Send a clear nameplate photograph and the complete model code. Include connection dimensions and any wiring or control details. Matching the connection size alone does not establish compatibility.

Installation of the Tokico emergency shutoff valve is required at various industrial equipments by the High Pressure Gas Safety Law and the Fire Defense Law.

In the MB series of emergency shutoff valve, CO2 gas cartridge with high initial torque is adopted as drive source, and ball valve making smooth movement is adopted at the valve part.

It shutoffs urgently or opens the pipelines of various fluids and is most suitable as safety disaster prevention equipment which prevents second disaster from occurring.

The KOFLOC 6800 series regulates pressure on the upstream side of a gas system by releasing gas when pressure exceeds the selected setting. Its compact design suits panel-mounted equipment and tank pressure control.

  • Pressure settings: 0.01–0.3 or 0.01–0.6 MPa(G), depending on model.
  • Maximum exhaust flow: 0.8, 1 or 10 L/min, depending on model and operating conditions.
  • Connections: Rc 1/4 or Rc 1/8.
  • Selection: Four versions with material options to suit the gas.

RCM Flo-Gard II liquid flow switches detect when flow crosses a selected setpoint, providing a contact signal for an alarm or equipment interlock. Applications include cooling-water circuits, chillers and compatible process-liquid systems.

  • Switch options: One or two independently adjustable SPDT reed switches.
  • Construction: Metal body with material and seal options to suit the liquid.
  • Local indication: Optional LEDs show switching status.
  • Installation options: General-purpose and intrinsically safe configurations, subject to the required specification.
