SYSTEM DESCRIPTION

Functions and features
The flow rate / totalizer model F110-A is a microprocessor driven instrument designed to display the
flow rate, the total and the accumulated total.
This product has been designed with a focus on:
▪
ultra-low power consumption to allow long-life battery powered applications (type PB/PC);
▪
intrinsic safety for use in hazardous applications (type XI),
▪
ability to process all types of flowmeter signals;
▪
transmitting possibilities with analog, pulse and communication outputs;
▪
several mounting possibilities with GRP or aluminum enclosures for industrial surroundings.
Flowmeter input
This manual describes the unit with a (0)4-20mA input from the flowmeter. Other versions are
available to process pulse signals.
One flowmeter with a (0)4-20mA output can be connected to the F110-A. To power the sensor,
several options are available.
Standard outputs
▪
Pulse output to transmit a pulse that represents a totalized quantity as programmed.
▪
Linear (0)4-20mA or 0-10V analog output to represent the actual flow rate as programmed. The
(0)4-20mA or 0-10V signal limits can be tuned.
