Pulse Output Device (POD)
Specifications Sheet
The SAMPI Pulse Output Device (POD)
converts the rotary motion of the Positive
Displacement Flow Meter into electronic
pulses. This allows the meter to interface
with a wide variety of electronic monitoring
devices and control equipment. The POD
mounts directly to the front cover of any
SAMPI/LC meter in place of the packing
gland. The motion of the meter’s blocking
rotor is magnetically coupled through a
stainless steel wall to the electronics
compartment of the POD. This eliminates the
dynamic seal of the packing gland and
isolates the electronics from the process fluid
in the meter.
