description The Cambridge AccuSense Series 300 The uni-directional model discriminates
is a line of solid-state, highly reliable between forward and reversed airflow,
electronic switches, designed to monitor indicating a fault if the airflow direction

clean rooms, semiconductor fabrication airflows from either of two opposing
facilities, and operating rooms as well directions.

distinct warning of airflow deterioration. Closed (N.C.) versions are available.
features • Ideal for cost-sensitive applications such as HVAC and facility management
• Dedicated open drain alarm pin available
• Small sensor body for compact locations
• Wide acceptance angle of ±40°
• Fully interchangeable with one another
• RoHS compliance and 94-V0 Package
1
The Hall effect sensor measures fan blade rotation only, and cannot respond to airflow deteriora-
tions caused by blockage.
2
Problem indication provided by a temperature sensor may be significantly delayed after the airflow is
interrupted, and may actually not occur at all, depending on the equipment convection patterns.
3
The mechanical vane switch is position-sensitive, easily affected by dirt and vibration, and since it
has moving parts, its performance tends to be less reliable.
