F-3200 Flow Meter Manual 04/13 - 0671-12 / 18325  

Page 8

1.4  STANDARD FEATURES AND SPECIFICATIONS

•  A built-in user interface & graphic display

•  A single 4 – 20mA output for flow rate 

•  Two programmable open collector pulse outputs. Outputs may be programmed to provide:

 

* an indication of flow direction

 

* a scaled pulse for totalizing flow

 

* a high resolution frequency output to drive peripheral devices

 

* an indication of an alarm condition

•  Empty pipe detector

•  Internal self-diagnostic functions & fault alarms 

CALIBRATION

  Flow meters are wet calibrated in a flow laboratory

    against standards that are directly traceable to 

    government standards. A certificate of calibration 

    accompanies every meter.

ACCURACY

Accurate to within:
  ± 0.2% of reading from 1.6 to 33 ft/s
  ± 0.0033 ft/s at flows less than 1.6 ft/s

PROGRAMMING

  Factory programmed for specific application

MEMORY

   Nonvolatile memory retains all program parameters 

  and totalized values in the event of power loss.

DISPLAY

   Alphanumeric LCD displays total flow, flow rate, 

  flow direction & alarm conditions
