Example
The schematic diagram, of course, only shows the circuitry and
not the pipe where the switch is physically mounted:
This particular flow switch is used to trigger an alarm light if
coolant flow through the pipe ever falls to a dangerously low
level, and the contacts are normally-closed as evidenced by the
closed status in the diagram.
when the flow through the pipe slows down enough will this
switch return to its “normal” status and conduct electrical power
to the lampant flow through the pipe.
Example
The schematic diagram, of course, only shows the circuitry and
not the pipe where the switch is physically mounted:
The “normal” status of a switch means just one thing: what that
switch will do when subjected to minimum stimulus – that is
to say, what it will do when its stimulus is less than the actuation
threshold of the switch.
