The OMEGA® FP7000 paddlewheel flow sensors are ideal for accurate monitoring of typical industrial water flows, hard-to-handle corrosive aqueous solutions, and high purity fluids (see "Wetted Materials" for details). The FP7000 utilizes a paddlewheel-like rotor whose motion is converted into a high-level square wave pulse output by an open collector Hall effect sensor. Pulse amplitudes from 5 to 18 V are possible, depending on input power. The FPW-15 115 Vdc converter plugs directly into a wall socket and outputs 400 mA at 15 Vdc. The DPF700 Series panel meter supplies power for the flow sensor and provides rate indication, or totalization, and batch control (when ordered with the dual relay option). When ordered with the analog output option, the DPF700 can be used to interface the FP7000 flow signal to such items as strip chart recorders, dataloggers, and computer interfaces. The system consists of the flow sensor, an installation fitting, and electronics. The 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. The FP7000 is not compatible with FP-5300 or FMG-5300 Series installation fittings. When powered by the FPW-5 five Vdc wall socket converter, the FP7000 has a TTL level pulse output which can be used with a variety of pulse input flow indicators, signal conditioners and controllers. It is not compatible with the FPM 730/740.
The FP7000 insertion paddlewheel flow sensor is priced at $200.
