Omega Engineering FLR7000 series Marine Sanitation System User Manual


 
I. INTRODUCTION
The FLR Flow Transmitter is a state-of-the-art, micro-
processor based variable area flow meter. It combines
the rugged proven technology of a piston-type,
variable area flow meter with solid state circuitry
including:
• Non-contact sensor electronics
• Electronic signal conditioning circuit
• Digital flow rate and total indication
• Proportional analog output
The product is sealed against industrial contamination
by a NEMA 12 and 13 (IP 52/54) rated enclosure and
is available for either liquid or gas service.
The FLR Flow Transmitter is capable of calculating and
displaying both flow rate and total accumulated flow.
The flow rate and total flow can be displayed in any of
the user selectable measurement units. The monitor’s
large 8 digit numeric liquid crystal display makes
extended range viewing practical. The second 8 char-
acter alphanumeric display provides for selectable
units viewing in RUN mode and prompts for variables
in PROGRAM mode.
All FLR Flow Transmitters come pre-calibrated from the
factory. However, the unit may be adjusted by the user
to meet specific system requirements. Calibration
parameters are included for:
• Specific gravity compensation (water or
petroleum-based fluids)
• Pressure and temperature compensation
(pneumatic applications)
All meters include an analog output that can be config-
ured for 0–5 Vdc, 0–10 Vdc, or 4–20 mA current loop.
Applications for the FLR Flow Transmitter include:
• Bearing lubrication
• Case drain verification
• Gun drill and machine cooling
• Pump flow outputs
