Flow Rate Transmitter is ideal for batching, industrial process control, mobile hydraulic equipment and computer / PLC controlled hydraulic system monitoring application. Available in analog or pulse outputs.
The Flow Rate Transmitter is ideal for batching, industrial process control, mobile hydraulic equipment and computer / PLC controlled hydraulic system monitoring applications. It is designed without delicate internal components to break, abrade, or corrode. The weather tight construction includes a rugged cast aluminum enclosure built to NEMA 4X standard for installation outdoors. This variable area flow meter is used to measure air, gas, oil, and water. The transmitter provides a visual indication of flow rate that matches the transmitted output for direct reading.

Description
- Simple to Install: All transmitters are factory calibrated and ship fully assembled. Simply install the transmitter into your system and apply power. No straight plumbing required at inlet or outlet.
- Industry Standard Outputs: Transmitters provide proportional analog or pulse outputs that will drive popular data acquisition devices, meters and analog input cards.
- Direct Reading: All transmitters provide a visual indication of flow rate that matches the transmitted output.
- Weather-Tight Construction: The rugged cast aluminum enclosure is built to NEMA 4X standard and allows installation outdoors and in environments where liquid tight seals are required.
- Rugged and Reliable: Without delicate internal components to break, abrade or corrode, the flow transmitter will provide many years of low-maintenance service

Electronic Transmitter Performance:
Power Requirements:
12-24 VDC
Load Driving Capacity:
4-20mA: Load resistance is dependent on power supply voltage. Use the following equation to calculate maximum load resistance: Max Loop Load (Ω) = 50 (Power supply volts – 12).
0-5 VDC: Minimum load resistance 1000.
1-5 VDC: Minimum load resistance 25 K Ω
Square Wave Pulse: Minimum load resistance 1000 Ω
Transmission Distance:
4-20mA and 1-5 VDC (regulated) are limited only by wire resistance and power supply voltage.
<200 feet recommended for 0-5 VD (regulated) C and square wave pulse.
Over-Current Protection:
Self limiting at 35mA
Resolution:
10-bit (0.1%)
Response Time:
<100 milliseconds
