FP1400 Series flowmeters support various functions
including; two independently programmable flow
totalizers, user programmable low, high or range flow
and temperature alarm, two sets of user programmable
optically isolated outputs, self diagnostic alarm, and
flow pulse output. The flow rate can be displayed
in 29 different volumetric or mass flow engineering
units. Flowmeter parameters and functions can be
programmed locally via optional key pad and LCD
or remotely via the RS232/RS485 interface. Local
2 x 16 LCD readout with adjustable backlight provides
flow rate, temperature, total volume reading in
currently selected engineering units, diagnostic events
indication and feature a password protected access to
the process parameters to ensure against tampering
or resetting.

Liquid flowing through the unit causes the paddlewheel
to spin. As the magnets embedded in the paddle spin
past the sensor, electrical pulses are produced in
which frequency is proportional to the flow rate. The
number of pulses per desired time interval and the
K-factor (number of pulses/gal) make it is possible to
calculate the flow rate and volume passing through
the unit. On board CPU and signal conditioner circuitry
perform accurate flow and total computation, digital
communication and analog 0 to 5 Vdc or 4 to 20 mA
output signals. Non-volatile memory stores all hardware
specific and user programmable variables, including
flow linearization table.
