F018 Safe area / Intrinsically safe – Flow rate Monitor / Totalizer

The F018 is a local flow rate indicator / totalizer with linearization and continuous flow rate monitoring feature. It displays the actual linearized flow rate, resettable total and non-resettable accumulated total. The F-Series is known worldwide as a range of user-friendly indicators. The F018 is even more impressive. The HART communication allows you to communicate in an easy way with smart “DD enabled host” systems.

Typical Applications

Flow rate monitoring with a precise calculation over the full measurement range, where re-transmission of the totalizer and monitoring of the flow rate function and HART communication is required.
The F-Series is your first and best choice for field mount indicators in safe and hazardous area applications. Especially in harsh weather conditions like rain, snow, sandy deserts, salty atmospheres and temperatures between -40°C up to +70°C (-40°F up to 158°F).
