ThismanualincludesinformationonallmodelsofFlowlineThermo‐Flo™FlowSwitches:FT10andGT10series.
Please refer to the part number located on the switch label to verifytheexactmodelwhichyouhave

User’sResponsibilityfor safety:Flowline manufacturesa widerangeof flowswitches andtechnologies,
whileeachofthesesensorsisdesignedtooperateinawidevariety of applications, it is the user’s
responsibilitytoselectasensormodelthatisappropriatefortheapplication,installitproperly,performtests
oftheinstalledsystem,andmaintainallcomponents.Thefailuretodosocouldresultinpropertydamageor
seriousinjury.
Proper Installation and Handling:  Because this is an eclectically operated device, only properly trained
staffshouldinstalland/orrepairthisproduct.Useapropersealantwithallinstallations.Note:Alwaysinstall
the3/4” Viton gasket withallversionsof Thermo‐Flo™ with metricthreads. TheG threaded versionwillnot
seal unless the gasket is properly installed. Never over tighten the sensor within the fitting, beyond a
maximumof80inch‐poundstorque.Alwayscheckforleakspriortosystemstart‐up.
MaterialCompatibility:TheFT10andGT10seriessensorsareavailableintwodifferentwettedmaterials.
ModelsFT10‐1__5andGT10‐1__5aremadeofPolypropylene(PP)withRyton®tips.ModelsFT10‐5__5and
GT10‐5__5 are made of Polyvinylidene Fluoride (PVDF). Make sure that the model you have selected is
compatiblewiththeapplicationliquid. Todetermine thechemicalcompatibility between thesensorandits
application liquids, refer to an industry reference such as the Compass Corrosion Guide (available from
CompassPublications).
WiringandElectrical:Thesupplyvoltageusedtopowerthesensorshouldneverexceedamaximumof36
voltsDC.Electricalwiringofthesensorshouldbeperformedinaccordancewithallapplicablenational,state,
andlocalcodes.
Flammable, Explosive and Hazardous Applications:  DO NOT USE THE FT10 OR GT10 SERIES GENERAL
PURPOSEFLOWSWITCHESINHAZAROUSLOCATIONS.

Theratingfortherelayis60VA,1Ampmax.
Flowline’s Thermo‐Flo™ flow switches are not recommendable for use with electrically charged
application liquids. For most reliable operation, the liquid being measured may need to be
electricallygrounded.
Thesensingtipofthesensormustalwaysbesubmersedintheliquidandneverexposedtoair.
Theliquidtemperaturemustremainconstantandnotchangethroughouttheprocess.

INTRODUCTION StepThree
Technology:Thethermaldispersionflowswitchesmeasureliquidorgastemperaturetodeterminechanges
in flow velocity.  As fluid flows across the sensing tips, the temperature is reduced proportionately as a
functionoftheflowrate.Whenatemperatureorvelocityshiftreachestheuserdefinedsetpoint,theswitch
changesstateindicatingtheappropriateflowcondition(flowofno‐flow).
FLOWLINE’ssophisticatedelectronicsconvertthetemperatureshift into a signal which indicates whether a
floworno‐flowconditionoccurs.Dependingonhowthesensoriswired,thissignalmaybewiredfornormally
openornormallyclosedcircuits.
FLOWLINE’s Thermo‐Flo™ flow switches have no moving parts to clogorfoul,makingthemsuitablefora
verityof applications, includingnon‐coating andnon‐scaling liquids. The FT10series directlymeasure mass
flowandcanoperateoverboardrangeofliquidsfrom0.4to1.2specificgravityand1to300cp.
InitializingSequence for FT10series:  When the flow switch is powered up whilesubmersed, theFT10 will
immediatelyindicate flowbefore switching toits correctstate.Atimedelaymaybeusedtoeliminatethe

detects flow, regardless of the polarity of the Red and Black wires.ReversingtheRedandBlackwireswill
reversethepolarityoftherelayswitch,butnottheinternalLED.
1. Install the fitting and flow switch as described in the Installation section of this manual. Turn the flow
switchand controllerpower on andadjust theflow ratetothe applicationsetting. Ifthe mediumto be
sensedislikelytobe subject to anytemperaturevariation,theflowswitchshouldbesetasthehighest
normaltemperaturelikelytobeencountered.
2. Locatethepotentiometerknobatthetopoftheflowswitch.The red LED is visible through the
potentiometer.Theadjustmentisasingleturn270°potentiometer.Theinitialresponsetimeoftheflow
switchafteradjustmentis1to10seconds.Adjustthepotentiometerinslowincrementsandwaitforthe
response.
a. LEDisON‐IftheLEDison,slowlyadjustthepotentiometercounter‐clockwise,withasmallflathead
screwdriveruntiltheLEDturnoff.
b. LEDisOFF‐IftheLEDisoff,slowlyadjustthepotentiometerclockwise.withasmallflathead
screwdriveruntilthelightturnson.
3. AdjustthepotentiometerbackandforthwheretheLEDisswitching,eventuallysettlingforwheretheLED
isOFF(thisisthelowflowstatefortheswitch).
a. Iftheflowisincreased,theLEDwillremainOFFindicatingaflowcondition
b. Iftheflowisdecrease,theLEDwillturnONindicatingano‐flowcondition.
4. Verifythatthenewcalibrationiscorrectbyloweringthesystemflowratebelowthesetpointandcheckto
seethattheredLEDturnson.ThenincreasetheflowrateabovethesetpointandverifythattheredLED
turnsoffaccordingly.

MAINTENANCE StepNine
General:  The Thermo‐Flo™ switch requires no periodic maintenance except tocleanoffanydepositsor
scaling from the sensor tip as necessary. It is the responsibility of the user to determine the appropriate
maintenanceschedule,basedonthespecificcharacteristicsoftheapplicationliquids.
CleaningProcedure:
1. Power: Makesurethatallpowertothesensor,controllerand/orpower supply is completely
disconnected.
2. SensorRemoval:MakesurethattheflowisoffandthepressureisdownpriortoremovingtheThermo‐
Flo™.  Carefully,removethesensorfromtheinstallation.Replacethesensorwitha3/4”NPTplugto
insure that the liquid does not leak out during this procedure.Do not re‐install the Thermo‐Flo™ if the
threadsaredamaged.
3. Cleaning the sensor: Use a soft bristle brush and mild detergent, carefully wash the Thermo‐Flo™ flow
switch. Do not use harsh abrasives such as steel wool or sandpaper, which might damage the surface
sensor.Donotuseincompatiblesolventswhichmaydamagethesurfacesensor.Donotuseincompatible
solventswhichmaydamagethesensor’sPP/RytonorPVDFplasticbody.
4. Sensor Installation: Follow the appropriatesteps of installation as outlined in the installation sectionof
thismanual.
TestingtheSensor(FT10SeriesOnly):
1. Immersingtheswitch:Placetheswitchinacupofwater.Makesurethetipsaresubmersedinthewater.
2. Power: TurnonpowertotheswitchwithRedto(+)andBlackto(‐).  Youcanreversethepolarityif
desired.
3. No‐Flow/Flow Test: With the switch setting still in the cup, wait until the Red LED turns ON (no‐flow
condition).
a. SwirltheswitchinthecupandwaituntiltheRedLEDturnOFF(flowcondition).
b. StopswirlingthesensorandletitrestinthecupwaitingfortheRedLEDtoturnONagain(no‐flow
condition).
c. Repeattheabovetwosteps.
4. RelayTest:Connectamultimeter(settoreadOhms)totheWhiteandGreenWires.Performtheabove
No‐Flow/Flowtestwiththemultimeterconnecttoobservetheactuationoftherelay.
a. WithRed to (+) and Black to (‐), the multimeterwillreadasmallresistanceduringno‐flow(closed
relay)andOLduringaflowcondition(openrelay).
b. ReversePolarity[Redto(‐)andBlackto(+)]toseethemultimeterread OLduring a no‐flow state
(openrelay)andasmallresistanceduringaflowcondition(closedrelay).
TheNo‐Flow/Flowtestdeterminesiftheswitchiscapableofsensingthechangesbetweenno‐flowandflow.
TheRelaytestdeterminestheabilityoftherelaytoswitchbetweenano‐flowandflowcondition.Thisisthe
