description
FlowVis Digital is the latest and most significant upgrade to date to the renowned FlowVis family. By adding Digital
functionality to the already unrivaled accuracy and flexibility of FlowVis flow meters, users will now experience even greater
functionality, ease of use, and precision. Unique features such as Pool Turnover Rate, and an ability to set flow rate alarms, will
further enhance the industry’s most respected flow meter.
FlowVis Digital employs a magnetic field sensor array to accurately measure the precise flow rate. A remote digital display,
housed in a NEMA 4X corrosion resistant enclosure, will display the flow rate in both a digital numeric value as well as in a
bar-graph format.
Even with the ability to install FlowVis in tight spaces and with almost zero straight pipe requirements, it can sometimes be
difficult to install the device in a location that makes it easy to read. FlowVis Digital solves this problem by allowing you to
install a Digital readout in a user accessible location.
In addition to greater installation flexibility, the Digital upgrade will also eliminate the possibility of experiencing a parallax
error issue when reading the standard FlowVis.
Note:
Parallax error can be caused by not looking at the FlowVis scale squarely – akin to a passenger in a car looking at the
speedometer and seeing a different reading to the driver. Additional details relating to this, can be found on Page 12 of the
FlowVis Operating Manual.
Using the ‘Advanced Setup’ features, FlowVis Digital can be interfaced with other systems such as heaters, chemical feeders
and UV units, so that they will only operate above a user defined flow rate. When using this option, it will be necessary to
include the Auxiliary Interface Unit with your purchase.
compatibility
FlowVis Digital is designed to be included (as an option) with any new FlowVis installation. Alternatively, it can be retrofitted to
an existing FlowVis – regardless of the size or model. For retrofit installations however, it is important to specify which FlowVis
model the ‘Digital’ is to be used on, as there are hardware differences to be considered.

a)
Electrical:
The FlowVis ‘Digital’ utilizes a 120VAC to 12VDC power supply that needs to be plugged into a standard
120V receptacle. The power supply cord should be firmly inserted into the receptacle, and a plug restraining clamp should
be added, if any of the FlowVis Digital’s outputs are being interfaced to other equipment such as VFDs, Heaters, Chemical
Feeder or any safety related equipment.
b)
Mechanical:
The FlowVis Digital sensor housing should only be secured to the FlowVis lid using the two extra long 1”
(25mm) stainless steel Phillips head screws provided.
