    1. DESCRIPTION The BA334ND is an Ex nL certified, externally powered pulse input rate totaliser primarily intended for use with flowmeters. instrument simultaneously displays the rate of flow and the total flow in engineering units on two separate displays. The BA334ND complies with the European ATEX Directive 94/9/EC for Group II, Category 3G equipment.
