3 Application
3 Application
The S409 is a thermal mass flow direction switch which is designed to
detect the direction of the flow inside of a pipe. The flow and direction
information is output through 2 normally open relay switches. This
signal can be transferred to a flow sensor to activate and deactivate the
flow measurement depending on the flow direction
The S409 flow direction switch is not developed to be used in explosive
areas. For the use in explosive areas please contact the manufacturer.
The S409 flow direction switch is mainly used in compressed air
systems in industrial environment.
4 Features
•Detects smallest changes < 0.1 m/s referred to 20°C and 1000
hpa.
•No mechanical wear parts.
•Insertion type flow direction switch for easy installations under
pressure through a ball valve.
•All parts that are in contact with the flow medium are made of
stainless steel.
•IP65 casing provides robust protection in the industrial
environment.

7 Determination of the installation point
7 Determination of the installation point
In order to maintain the accuracy stated in the technical data, the
sensor must be insert in the pipe without touching the inner wall of the
pipe. Please consider that enough space exists at your site for a
adequate installation as described in this manual.
ATTENTION!
Wrong measurement is possible if the instrument is
not installed correctly.
•The sensor is for indoor use only! At an outdoor installation, the
sensor must be protected from solar radiation and rain.
•It is strongly recommend not to install S409 permanently in wet
environment which exists usually right after a compressor outlet.
8 Installation
Before installing the sensor, please make sure that all components listed
below are included in your package.

8.2 Installation Procedure
The following steps explain the procedure of an appropriate installation.
Installing the flow switch
First please observe the flow direction
indicated on the housing or on the shaft. It
must match the flow direction of the
compressed air or gas.
1. Ball valve must be closed.
2. The probe tip must be completely covered
by the connection thread (see photo on the
left).
3. nderlay the “O-ring” at the thread of the
ball valve before screwing the flow sensor.
4. Screw the connection thread tightly to the
ball valve and align flow sensor to flow
direction.
5. Open ball valve and tighten clamp sleeve
manually by hand.
6. Move the sensor slightly to the determined
insertion depth by means of the scale.
7. Tighten the clamp sleeve at the connection
thread so that the sensor cannot be moved by
the pressure in the pipe, however it should be
possible to move the sensor shaft manually.
8. With the aid of the alignment key make
sure that the actual flow direction is same as
the arrow shows (The angle deviation should
not be larger than ± 2° to the perfect
position).
9. Tighten clamp sleeve with clamping torque
20...30 Nm.

8 Installation
10. During the final check control the
installation depth again because sometimes
the shaft is moved from its original position
due the compressed air.
Maximum angle deviation of a proper installation:
Removing the flow switch
1. Hold the flow switch.
2. Release the clamp sleeve at the connection thread.
3. Pull out the shaft slowly until the value “10” can be read at the
scale.
4. Close the ball valve.
5. Release the connection thread and unscrew the flow switch.
8.3 Electrical connection
The flow sensor is equipped with two Connectors“A” and “B”. The cables
are connected to the sensor through the M12 connector.
