Measurement
Volumetric flow in full pipes, 2" (5 cm) to 96" (244 cm.) in diameter using insertable velocity sensor. Flow indication in English or Metric units.

Local Velocity Measurement
Method: Electromagnetic (Faraday's Law)
Range: -5 to +20 ft/s (-1.5 to +6.1 m/s)
Zero Stability: ±0.05 ft/s (±15.2 mm/s)
Accuracy: ±2% of reading ±zero stability at -3 to +10 ft/s (-0.9 to +3 m/s)
Resolution: 0.01 ft/s (3.05 mm/s)

Sensor Selection
Pipe Sizes 2" (5 cm) to 30" (76 cm) - 1" sensor (Recommended for clean water applications only up to 30". Clean water applications over 30" should use 2" sensor)
Pipe Sizes 6" (15 cm) to 96" (244 cm) - 2" sensor

Materials
Sensor: Polyurethane exposed to flow Epoxy ceramic sensors available for chemical applications. 20 ft., polyurethane outer jacket. Additional cable lengths available - Contact factory.

Sensor Mounting Hardware
1" Sensor: 316 Stainless Steel
2" Sensor: Carbon Steel and PVC exposed to fluid; Stainless Steel Optional

Environment - Operating Temperature Degree Range
Electronics: 32°F to 113°F (0°C to 45°C)
Sensor: 32°F to 160°F (0°C to 71°C) @ 250 PSI with Stainless Steel Hardware
Consult factory for information on higher temperature ranges or sensors for extreme environments.

Data Retrieval
Portable computer utilizing MS/DOS is utilized for Flo-Ware (sold separately) operating software for Flo-Tote flowmeter.

Power Requirements
Six Volt (primary or rechargeable) battery
Power Consumption: 110 mA @ 6 volts.

Pressure/Temperature Limits
PVC Insertion Tube: 150 PSI @ 105°F (41°C),
30 inch max. (56 cm)
Stainless Steel Insertion Tube: 250 PSI @ 160°F (71°C), 65 inch max. (165 cm)

Pressure Transducer (Optional)
Range: (Choice of transducers) 0-250 psi or 0-100 psi
Accuracy: ±3% of reading, or ±1 PSI, whichever is greater.
Housing
Sealed, watertight PVC enclosure (submersible)
Length: 21.5"; Diameter 5"
Weight: 15 lbs. with battery

Flow Proportional Contact Closure (Qty. 2)
Contact closes each time flow total exceeds a preset value. (Limit 1 closure per cycle)
Minimum Value: 1 Gallon
Maximum Value: 99,000,000 Gallons
Contact Closure: 1 amp @ 28 volts, non-inductive
Closure Period: 100-300 milliseconds

Extra Data Logging Channels
Voltage Input Channels - (Qty. 4)
Voltage Range: -5 volts to +5 volts
Voltage Resolution: 2.5 mV

Pulse Input Channel - (Qty. 1)
Requires 3-15 VDC external pulse at maximum rate not to exceed 4095 pulses per data cycle.

External Start
+5 to +15 VDC, 1 second

Memory Size

Standard        (21000 cycles)
                      (# active channels)
i.e., if two voltage channels are recorded, velocity and level or velocity and pressure, number of active channels = 2. 21000 ÷ 2 = 10500 cycles.

Optional - 86,520 cycles
