Abstract
A condition responsive sensor is provided with a flow sensor channel means that is interconnected to a capillary tube restriction. The capillary tube restriction can be readily interchanged on the device to change the response of the condition responsive sensor. A very small flow sensor is placed in the flow sensor channel. The flow sensor channel and the capillary tube restriction can be placed generally parallel to one another to reduce the overall length of the device.
