INTRODUCTION
The MR flow transmitter is a state-of-the-art, microprocessor based variable area flow meter . It combines the rugged proven
technology of a piston-type, variable area flow meter with solid state circuitry including:
• Non-contact sensor electronics
• Electronic signal conditioning circuit
• Digital flow rate and total indication
• Proportional analog output
The product is sealed against industrial contamination by a NEMA 12 and 13 (IP 52/54) rated enclosure and is available for
either liquid or gas service .
The MR flow transmitter is capable of calculating and displaying both flow rate and total accumulated flow . The flow rate and
total flow can be displayed in any of the user selectable measurement units . The monitor’s large 8 digit numeric liquid crystal
display makes extended range viewing practical . The second 8 character alphanumeric display provides for selectable units
viewing in
RUN
mode and prompts for variables in
PROGRAM
mode .
All MR flow transmitters come pre-calibrated from the factory . However, the unit may be adjusted by the user to meet
specific system requirements . Calibration parameters are included for:
• Specific gravity compensation (all fluids)
• Viscosity compensation (petroleum-based fluids)
• Pressure and temperature compensation (pneumatic applications)
All meters include an analog output that can be configured for 0…5V DC, 0…10V DC, or 4…20 mA current loop . Applications
for the MR flow transmitter include:
• Bearing lubrication
• Case drain verification
• Gun drill and machine cooling
• Pump flow outputs
