1.0 Introduction
The FTB300 is designed to display flow rate and flow total on a six digit
LCD display. The meter can measure bi-directional flows in either vertical
or horizontal mounting orientation. Six flow ranges and four optional pipe
and tubing connections are available. Pre-programmed calibration K-factors
can be selected for the corresponding flow range or a custom field calibration can be performed for higher accuracy at a specific flow rate. The meter
is factory programmed for the correct K-factor of the body size
included with the meter.
