Straight Integrated Water Flow-Switch Manifold — SMC PF3WC Reference

A distinct straight-layout integrated water manifold that routes supply and return piping in the same direction. The main photograph is the manufacturer's PF3WC series example.

Rated flow options
0.5–4, 2–16 or 5–40 L/min per selected flow-switch unit; not a whole-manifold rating
Port size options
1 in main pipe; attachment ports 3/8, 1/2 or 3/4 in, subject to selected unit and flow passage
Wetted parts material
PPS, 304 stainless steel and FKM in the catalogued construction; check selected unit and fluid
Published fluid pressure temperature
Water or ethylene-glycol aqueous solution at viscosity ≤3 mPa·s; fluid 0–90 °C; listed operating pressure 0–1 MPa changes with fluid temperature
Supply return unit options
Supply: flow-adjustment or stop-valve units; return: flow-switch, flow-adjustment or stop-valve units

Overview

PF3WC keeps supply and return in one assembly but changes the connection layout: both main piping directions are arranged on the same side. This is a routing difference from the basic PF3WB configuration.

Construction and interfaces

The manufacturer photograph shows a straight-layout body with separate branch connections, flow-sensing stations and valve stations. It does not identify one fixed station count or full order code.

Selection

Check the same-direction pipe clearance and the individual branch duties. Select the catalog's 0.5–4, 2–16 or 5–40 L/min flow-switch option per branch; these are not whole-manifold flow ratings.

Configuration options

Specify the number and makeup of branch stations, stop/adjustment valves, sensing and display or signal requirements. Confirm the exact port and mounting arrangement with the manufacturer drawing.

Application limits

No pressure, total-flow or pressure-drop guarantee is inferred from the photograph. Fluid compatibility and permissible envelope belong to the selected variant and actual circuit conditions.
