FLO-SONICTM FPFM
Full Pipe Ultrasonic Transit-Time
Flow Meter

FLO-SONICTM
The FLO-SONICTM FPFM uses the very latest electronic technology
combined with highly efficient digital signal processing (D.S.P.),
technique which maximizes the system performance giving the user
significant benefits.
FLO-SONICTM FPFM gives outstanding measurement capability
including the ability to adapt its operation to suit the most
challenging site conditions.
The system consists of a hand held control unit and two probes
with support and cables.

Technical Specifications

Specifications
2 lines LCD display – 16 characters – programmable backlight.
Ergonomic keypad and menu configuration – access code if
needed.
Analog output (x2), relays (x2) and (or 485).
High resolution time measurement < 0.1 ns.
Dynamic Gain up to 89 dB.
Echo analyzer with automatic control (ESC mode)
Multiparameter : Flow, speed, gain, signal quality ratio, …
Electrical specifications
12 VDC or 24 VDC or 115-230 VAC supply
Isolated output current 4-20 mA - 250 Ohm
Static relay 100 V – 100 mA (x2)
Optional accessories include
Extra cable length for probes (l = 5 m)
GPRS Data Logger with Internet compatibility
ESC mode and automatic zero flow
To achieve accurate flow readings, proper probes selection and
installation are required. The E.S.C mode acts as an ‘Auto focus’
for the ultrasonic signals in order to optimize the acoustic signal.
Zero offset adjustment at no flow conditions is not necessary,
nevertheless auto zero function can still be used.
