Barksdale’s UQS7 Solid State Flow Switch pro-

vides a highly accurate monitoring and control solution for water-based fluids. Our UQS7 combines two

built-in switchpoints, a 4-20 mA analog output, and a digital display in a single, compact unit. Ultrasonic

sensing technology measures time of flight between two discrete points, assuring highly accurate

measurement with low insertion loss as compared to other types of flow sensors. Setpoints and dead-

band are easily adjusted by using a built-in, user-friendly menu. Analog output is scalable from 25% to

100% of full scale range, providing a high degree of flexibility for a wide range of applications. A 10-bit

microprocessor provides built-in self diagnostics and allows for switch time delays up to 9.9 seconds.

For applications requiring accurate monitoring of water-based fluids, the UQS7 is an ideal choice.
