INSTALLATION AND OPERATION OF 

BIOPROTT™ FLOWTRACK

 since the features of BioProTT

TM

 

Flow

Track DINrail 

are identical with BioProTT

Installation and Operation of BioProTT™ FlowTrack plus 

 

 

Compliance with the prescribed operating parameters and safety 
information must be ensured prior to set up. The following installation 
instructions must be strictly observed. 

 
The BioProTT

TM

 

Flow

Track plus is designed as bench top device with sleeves that support 

mounting on a flat surface. 

 

The device is powered on or off by  

 

pushing the switch at the rear of the flow meter when powered through the dedicated 
power input 

 

OR (alternatively) by connecting/disconnecting a DC power supply via one of the 
analog interfaces (on/off switch is not active) or the power socket (which engages the 
on/off switch)
