Introduction

Thank you for purchasing an FMBC-2000 Series electronic flow meter. The FMBC-2000 Series is designed to measure the flow of a fluid being
dispensed from Finish Thompson’s PFP, PFM, & PFV drum pumps. In addition, the meter can stop the pump when a predetermined customer
adjustable volume is reached (Batch Control Mode). The meter is factory calibrated and displays information on an LCD display. In addition, the
meter can be field calibrated to improve accuracy at a given flow rate. There are options for materials of construction and measurement units.
