Flow Monitor

B2800 Series

DESCRIPTION

The B2800 flow monitor is designed to be comprehensive, user-friendly, flexible and cost efficient. This microprocessor-based display can easily be configured in the field. You may choose between the simplified model that is programmed in seven steps and the advanced model that provides additional programming options.

The B2800 flow monitor is offered in five mounting configurations: meter, remote, swivel, panel and explosion-proof, allowing for flexible installation. When paired with a rugged, reliable Blancett® turbine flow meter, the flow monitor provides dependable and accurate flow information for many years. The flow monitor may also be used with almost any flow sensor that outputs a low-amplitude AC signal.

OPERATION

The B2800 flow monitor accepts a low-level frequency input to calculate flow rate and total. These calculations are then displayed in user-selected units of measurement. The flow monitor is available in a battery-powered or loop-powered version. The battery version uses one D size, 1.5V alkaline battery that provides up to 3-1/2 years of service. The loop-powered version offers a two-wire 4…20 mA output for electronic integration. The meter mount, remote and swivel mount monitors are equipped with a large eight-digit by 3/4 in. (19 mm) numerical LCD display making extended range viewing practical. The second eight character by 3/8 in. (9 mm) alphanumeric display provides for selectable units viewing in Run mode and prompts variables in Programming mode. Additionally, you can choose between displaying the rate or total, or alternating between both rate and total.

OPTIONAL VENT

The B2800 flow monitor may be ordered with an optional vent, which equalizes the enclosure pressure caused by changes in temperature.

FEATURES

• Displays rate and/or total

• User friendly front panel programming

• Microprocessor-based, low power consumption

• Simplified model displays in five selectable units of measure: US gallons, liters, cubic meters (per day), barrels or cubic meters (per hour)

• Advanced model offers thirteen selectable units of measure: US gallons, oil barrels, liters, cubic meters, Mgallon, Mcubic feet, MMcubic feet, cubic feet, Mliters, acre feet, liquid barrels, pounds or kilograms

• Advanced model allows selection of time intervals for rate measurement in either day, hour, minute, or second

• Advanced model includes gas measurement with correction software for pressure and temperature
