Measure. Monitor. Repeat.

For better insights, better decision-making and better process performance.

Key Features & Benefits

  • Explosion proof according ATEX, IECEx and CSA C-US.
  • Aluminum or high grade stainless steel Ex d enclosure.
  • Easy installation with the spacious chamber and plug & play connectors.
  • Cost saving with an easy to install, 1” NPT thread for direct flowmeter mounting.
  • Key information at a glance as the display shows flow rate, total, accumulated total, measuring units, alarm values, alarm messages and a flow rate indicating speedometer.
  • High and low flow rate alarm monitoring.
  • 15 point linearization of the flow curve – with interpolation.
  • 7 digit flow rate / total and 11 digit accumulated total.
  • Clear flashing LED backlight in case of an alarm.
  • Auto backup of settings and running totals.
  • Ambient temperature aluminum enclosure: -40°C to +70°C (-40°F to 158°F).
    Ambient temperature stainless steel enclosure: -40°C to +67°C (-40°F to 153°F).
  • Various accessories are available for this product.
  • E018 on the HART Foundation website.
  • Pulse input retransmission, i.e. for calibration purposes or amplification and squaring of sinewave/coil signals.

 

Typical Applications

  • Flow measurement with mechanical flowmeters, where re-transmission of the totalizer, monitoring of the flow rate and HART communication is required.
  • The E-Series can be used in rough and tough applications, beyond being just explosion proof. Its sturdy design and ease of use are unequaled by any other explosion proof indicator in the market! The E-Series is always your first and safest choice in explosion proof applications.

Advantages

  • Saves time and improves flexibility with the through-glass keypad: no need to open the front cover.
  • Familiar easy operation with the Fluidwell "Know one, know them all" configuration structure, saving time, cost and aggravation.
  • Durable high-grade stainless steel 316L Ex d enclosure withstanding extreme (maritime) conditions.
