FP4

FP4 is a modern, versatile and precise flow meter with internal data logging. Equipped with two analogue inputs (RTD, 4-20mA, voltage or resistive output transducers) and two PULS inputs (frequency measurement, pulse counting, binary signal tracking and recording), can measure flow and other values, such as temperature and humidity. In addition FP4 has two math channels and two totalizers assigned to each of the six available channels. All this in a device with a 4-inch touch screen.

• Counting pulses
• Tracking and recording of binary signal (shorting or disconnecting)

ANALOG OUTPUT


• Retransmission of one of the channels as a 4-20mA current loop output signal

TOTALIZERS


• For each input there are available two totalizers L1 and L2
• Totalizers can be reset manually or they can work automatically: daily ,weekly or monthly
• Totalizers T1 and T2 counting the operation time of totalizers
• Frequency of archiving, for counters, from 1 min to 24h

4 ALARM AND CONTROL SYSTEM


• 4 solid state relays 0,1 A / 60 V
• 2 alarm and control thresholds for each channel

RECORDING MEASUREMENT RESULT


• Recording data to internal 2GB memory, local access to recorded data through USB port on the front panel
• Data recording rate between 2 s and 24 h; two recording frequencies toggled upon exceeding the set alarm thresholds

INTENDED USE


• Measurement of flow and other quantities, e.g. temperature, humidity, pressure
• Operation in dispersed measurement systems with local readings of measurement results
