Section 1 - General Description
The FP7002 flow/temperature transmitter is ideal for monitoring of
typical industrial water flows and temperature, from hard-to-handle
corrosive aqueous solutions to high purity fluids. The FP7002 uses a
paddlewheel-like rotor whose motion is converted into a pulse output.
This pulse output is converted to a 4 - 20 mA (or 1 - 5 Vdc) analog
output by the built-in signal conditioner. A solid state temperature
sensor built into the sensor body provides a separate 4 - 20 mA (or
1 - 5 Vdc) analog output directly proportional to changes in fluid
temperature. These independent analog outputs can be run long
distances to a panel meter, controller or computer.
A complete flow measurement system consists of the flow sensor/
transmitter, the installation fitting and a readout device. The FP7002
has polypropylene, 316SS, and FKM wetted parts. The schedule 40 PVC
tee fittings are supplied with a PVC locking nut, and the galvanized
iron tee fittings are supplied with a brass locking nut to provide a
secure metal to-metal mounting to the threaded brass insert.
Section 2 - Installation
2.1 Unpacking
Remove the Packing List and verify that you have received all
equipment. If you have any questions about the shipment, please call
the OMEGA Customer Service Department.
When you receive the shipment, inspect the container and equipment
for any signs of damage. Note any evidence of rough handling in
transit. Immediately report any damage to the shipping agent.
N O T E
The carrier will not honor any claims unless all shipping
material is saved for their examination. After examining
and removing contents, save packing material and carton
in the event that reshipment is necessary.
2.2 Important Considerations Before Installation
CAUTION
THE FP7002 PADDLEWHEEL FLOW TRANSMITTER IS NOT
EXPLOSION-PROOF, NOR IS IT INTRINSICALLY SAFE. IT
IS NOT TO BE USED FOR FLAMMABLE OR HAZARDOUS
LIQUIDS, NOR CAN IT BE USED IN HAZARDOUS AREAS.
The FP7002 is intended for use with water and other low viscosity
liquids ONLY; it can NOT be used with oils and other viscous
