Description

The Signet 2551 Magmeter is an insertion style magnetic 

fl

 ow sensor.  The patented sensor design is available in a variety of corrosion-

resistant materials to provide long-term reliability and minimal maintenance costs.  Wetted material combinations include PP/316 SS, 
PVDF/SS, PVDF/Hastelloy-C, and PVDF/Titanium. The 2551 installs quickly and securely into a wide selection of 

fl

 ow 

fi

 ttings to deliver 

accurate 

fl

 ow measurement in pipe sizes ranging from DN15 to DN300 (½ in. to 12 in.).  

Signet 2551 Magmeters are available with a frequency output or a 4 to 20 mA output.  Signet's digital (S

3

L) output is included with the 

Frequency output models for use with the Signet 8900 Multi-Parameter Controller, while the 4 to 20 mA output can be used for a direct 
input to a PLC, SCADA or telemetry system.

All 2551 Magmeters feature empty pipe detection and LED-assisted diagnostics. The Signet 3-0250 USB to Digital S

3

L set-up tool is 

available to customize every performance feature in the 2551 to adapt it to the speci

fi

 c application requirements.
