  • Explosion proof water flow detector
    Patent number: 6331820
    Abstract: A paddle type flow detector for an explosive environment is mountable onto a pipe. The detector includes a structure for mounting to a pipe, a substantially sealed switch housing containing an electrical switch, and a paddle located within the pipe. A lever mechanism connects to the paddle and extends up through the mounting structure and to the switch housing. A spring is contained between the switch housing and the mounting structure and is connected between the lever mechanism and a screw adjustable spring block. The spring is contained within a spring compartment formed between the switch conduit and the mounting structure. A slide rod is operatively connected to the lever mechanism and to the switch to change a state of the switch upon sliding movement of the slide rod. The slide rod is tightly fit within a bore of the switch housing and blocks a flame path between the switch housing and the spring compartment.
