Does the SCWD slow its switching interval as the input flow of water is decreased?

And what would be the switching time interval between the two ends of a SCWD with an input flow of 255 gallons per hour?

the cattleman,
If the water flow is slowed through the SCWD the switching current will also slow due to the amount of water being passed through the unit, switching automatically at a rate depending on incoming water pressure from the pump. This switching time for the SCWD on a 255gph pump is approximately 11 seconds at 195gph on the outlet of the SCWD.
