One of my A/C's shut down today due to low cooling water flow. I cleaned the strainer out and got them running again, but it got me thinking...what would be a good way to give me a status so I could clean it out before they stopped?
First thought would be a water flow rate alarm like I have on my engine cooling water. You adjust it so that when the flow gets below a certain value, it alarms. Besides that, what ideas do the rest of you have? Maybe a vacuum gage that shows the restriction at the strainer? Any other ideas?
