Blancett F-to-V, F-to-I Specifications

Intelligent Frequency Converter

F to I / F to V

DESCRIPTION

The Blancett Frequency-to-Current (F to I) and Frequency-to-Voltage (F to V) intelligent converters are state-of-the-art active sensors designed to provide enhanced features and greater flexibility for the Blancett turbine.

These microprocessor-based devices are engineered to provide an analog output directly from a Blancett turbine flow meter. The converters measure and calculate the flow rate of a turbine flow meter and produce an analog output proportional to the flow rate. The F to I and F to V converters are offered with either a 4…20 mA or a 0…5V DC output signal, enabling easy electronic integration. Choose between the capped aluminum condulet Y-enclosure (model B220-873 or B220-874) or the canister style (model B220-950 or B220-951) converters.

When a converter is ordered with a flow meter, the two components ship from the factory calibrated as a system. If the converter is a replacement, the turbine’s K-Factor has changed, or the converter is being used with a different manufacturers flow meter, then re-programming is possible with an optional Windows®-based software utility. Please consult the factory for details.
