INTRODUCTION
The QSE meter has multiple types
of output electronics available.
The electronics for the operation
of the meter coils and flow tube
are housed within the meter body
casing. The cover plate is designed
in two versions; a plain cover plate
or a display mount cover plate. The
output electronics (QSB, QSI1, QSI2
or QSI3) can be housed within either
of the two cover plates. A display
(Q09) is also available mounted to
the "display mount" cover plate. All
meters are equipped with galvanically
isolated pulse-out electronics
(QSB) as the default standard,
regardless of style of cover plate.
This manual contains overall
information related only to the meter.
This meter is externally powered
and all external wiring connects
to the electronics within the cover
plate through its threaded ports.
