SIKA VHS06 Pipeline Flow Switch For Water And Oil Flow Monitoring
Product Spotlights
SIKA VHS06 Pipeline Flow Switch is a reliable and cost-effective solution designed for continuous monitoring of water and oil flow in industrial pipelines. As a trusted trading partner with more than a decade of export experience, Rossonix Co., Limited is proud to offer this precision instrument that combines durable mechanical design with practical functionality. Whether you need to protect pumps, detect flow failure, or monitor cooling circuits, the VHS06 delivers accurate and repeatable performance that helps you maintain operational safety and efficiency.
This flow switch operates on a proven paddle/spring mechanism, which responds directly to the velocity of the medium inside the pipe. The robust housing is made of corrosion-resistant materials, suitable for demanding environments. With a compact design and a variety of process connections, the VHS06 can be installed in existing pipelines with minimal effort, making it an ideal choice for retrofit projects as well as new installations.
Key Features & Benefits
Accurate flow monitoring: The VHS06 responds quickly to flow changes, providing reliable switching signals when flow rate falls below or exceeds the set point.
Versatile media compatibility: Suitable for both water and oil, which covers a wide range of industrial applications including lubrication systems, cooling circuits, and hydraulic units.
Durable construction: Wetted parts are made of stainless steel and brass, ensuring long service life even in harsh operating conditions.
Easy installation: Compact size and standard threaded connections allow direct mounting into pipelines without special tools.
Adjustable set point: The switching point can be easily adjusted to match specific process requirements, offering flexibility for different flow thresholds.
No external power required: Unlike electronic flow meters, this mechanical switch does not need an external power supply, simplifying wiring and reducing energy consumption.
Low maintenance: Simple design with fewer moving parts means less wear and tear, resulting in lower downtime and maintenance costs.

Frequently Asked Questions
1. How does the SIKA VHS06 flow switch work?
The VHS06 uses a paddle that is displaced by the liquid flow inside the pipe. When the flow velocity reaches a set threshold, the paddle movement actuates a micro-switch, changing the electrical state. If flow drops below the set point, the switch returns to its original position.
2. Can the VHS06 be used for both water and oil?
Yes, the VHS06 is designed to work with water, oil, and other non-aggressive liquids. Always confirm the viscosity of your oil and the required flow range to ensure proper paddle selection and set point adjustment.
3. What pipe sizes are compatible with the VHS06?
The VHS06 is typically available with threaded connections such as G1/2, G3/4, and G1, which suit pipe sizes from about 1/2 inch to 2 inches depending on the model variant. For larger pipes, the switch can be installed with a suitable fitting or using a bypass configuration.
4. Is the switching point adjustable?
Yes, the switching point is adjustable. You can change the set point to match your required flow rate, providing flexibility for different process conditions. Instructions are included in the product manual.
5. Does the flow switch require an external power supply?
No, the VHS06 is a mechanical flow switch that does not require external power. The switch contacts can be connected to your control circuit just like a normal relay contact. This simplifies installation and saves cost.
6. What is the maximum working pressure and temperature?
The standard version supports up to 16 bar and temperature from -20°C to +120°C. If you need higher pressure or temperature ratings, please contact us as special versions may be available on request.
7. How do I choose the correct connection type?
Select the connection type according to your pipeline thread standard. Common choices are BSP or NPT threads. Provide us your pipe size and media type, and we can recommend the most suitable VHS06 variant.
8. What is the delivery time for this product?
For standard models, delivery is typically within 1–2 weeks after order confirmation. Customized versions may take longer. We will provide an accurate lead time when you place your inquiry.
