Kobold DSS All Metal Flow Switches

Kobold DSS All Metal Flow Switches operate on the suspended float principle, however not with a tapering measuring tube, but with a cylindrical float and a slotted conical nozzle. This technology allows a very much more compact construction and offers considerable price advantages.
