  • Page 14: Pulse Output (Fpw 05 Only)

    Pulse output (FPW 05 only) In case of FPW 05 flow meters, it is only the pulse output dependent on the flow velocity within the range of 0.3-6m/sec. User wiring Internal wiring Wiring example: Pulse output or make/break contact (FPW 10 and FPW 20 only)
  • Page 15: 4-20Ma Output (Fpw 20 Only)

    4-20mA output (FPW 20 only) The manufacturer delivers the meter with output set to 4-20mA in such a manner that at zero flow velocity of the medium, the output value is 4mA and at 6m/sec it is 20mA. The dependence of flow on velocity is linear.
