    Additionally, the Switch series is configured to order, with a variety of velocity ranges, mechanical lengths, and output communication styles available. The S-Series Switches are manufactured in directional and non-directional styles. Directional Switches only sense flow from one direction, and are immune to flow reversals. Non-directional Switches will sense flow from either direction in the duct or environment.

    Selectable lengths (See Section 2.3, Length) Temperature Compensation: The S-Series Switch is a thermal airflow switch; it is sensitive to changes in air density and measures velocity with reference to a set of standard conditions (21°C (70°F), 760mmHg (101.325kPa), and 0%RH). The S-Series Switch has been designed and calibrated to automatically compensate for temperature effects up to 60°C.
