    FAQ

    Digital air flow switches are primarily used to detect changes in air flow within pipelines or equipment, providing real-time feedback on flow status via digital displays. When flow reaches a preset value, the switch outputs a signal to control equipment startup, shutdown, or alarm activation.

    Digital air flow switches are widely used in industrial automation, HVAC systems, cleanroom ventilation systems, pneumatic equipment control, and air filtration system monitoring.

    When installing a digital air flow switch, ensure the airflow direction aligns with the device's marked orientation. Position it in a section of the duct where airflow is stable, avoiding locations near elbows, valves, or fan outlets to minimize turbulence that could affect measurement accuracy. Additionally, select an installation location that allows easy viewing of the display and facilitates maintenance. Connect the power supply and control circuits according to the manual to ensure stable operation.
