Hello I have a Chiller and I would like to install a no flow sensor to power down my ballasts as well as chiller pump. I have two flow sensors from Fresca sol but I am unsure how to wire them properly. I have seen posts where other people have them properly installed and I am hoping someone with more technical HVAC electrical knowledge can point me in the right direction. I understand the basic concept of what needs to be done but would like to utilize these flow switches. I have attached a picture of the Flow switch. The relay in the picture is a part I think I may need. Thanks.
Yes I have searched the forums and all over but I cannot figure out the proper way to wire this into the system. I Appreciate any advice.
I was able to find this thread but cannot draw a clear enough conclusion from the only response that is realistic.

As well as this example of what may be happening.

or Perhaps the flow sensor is wired directly with any 120vac appliance and when flow stops the circuit breaks. Thanks for your opinion.

"you can get this unit from bestcoastgrowers.com or one like it simply plumb it into your return line and then plug the timer that goes to your trigger cord of your light controller. this will turn off all your lights and the timer so whe nyou find it you know when it stopped. also i recomend that you use a power strip or splitter so you can also plug your pump into the no flow no go so if your system gets a leak the flow stoppimg will also turn off your pump so it doesn't pump your whole res on the floor."
He says Simply, but then he loses me.
