-Monitor consumption and flow rates
-Improve your process
-8 point linearisation - High quality manufacture
-High reliability
-Immunity to electrical noise
-ISO 9001 certified manufacturer
-Robust stainless steel enclosure
Application
The FC7-SP7 converts the millivolt sinewave frequency output from a turbine flowmeter into a loop powered 4-20 mA signal for instruments such as PLCs , computers, flow controllers, data loggers or local displays. It has a 32hz update time making it ideal for hydraulic circuit or engine testing when a fast response to changes in flow are required.
Installation
The FC7-SP7 has an integral variable reluctance sensor with a 5/8” -18 UNF thread, for connection to turbine flowmeters. Other thread sizes are available
Instrument Function
The FC7-SP7 takes the frequency input from a turbine flowmeter and converts it to a 4-20ma analogue output. It is programmed with up to 8 points from the flowmeter calibration curve and linearly interpolates between each point. This improves the accuracy and extends the linear range of the flowmeter.
Setup
The instrument is pre-set for your flowmeter using points from the calibration certificate. The 4ma and 20ma levels are set to your requirements.
