Questions and answers
Hello, I am trying to find information on a particular flow meter I have in my chiller system. Model number EC80-R-RM1-002, serial number 60757. It has a db15 female connector on top and a threaded flow hook up in the bottom. When I search these model and serial numbers it sends me to your website, but I do not see this product listed. Any information would be useful! Thank you!
The COX EC80-R-RM1-002 flow meter with serial number 60757 includes the following information:
- Model Information: Identifies the configuration of the EC80 Flow Processor for which the profile was designed.
- IFC Serial Number (SN): Provides traceability and associated documentation for the individual EC80 Flow Processor.
- Meter Model Number: Indicates the configuration and features of the flow meter.
- Meter Serial Number (SN): Provides traceability and calibration details for the flow meter.
- Firmware Revision: States the firmware configuration and supports historical revision tracking.
This information is input at the factory and should not be changed.
