B-Connected Basic – Flow rate Indicator / Totalizer

The Modbus communcation and isolated analog and pulse output signals make the B-Connected flow rate indicator / totalizer a dedicated flow transmitter for connection to an automation network or PLC. The display shows flow rate, total and accumulated total. The scaled pulse output re-transmits the accumulated total. The analog output re-transmits the flow rate. On-screen engineering units are easily configured from a comprehensive selection.

Key Features & Benefits

  • Compact design.
  • Displays instantaneous flow rate, total and accumulated total.
  • Isolated analog and pulse outputs.
  • Modbus RS485 communication.
  • Durable IP65 (Type 4X) field, wall or meter mount enclosure.
  • One 20mm (0.79″) and two 16mm(0.63″) knock-out hole cable entries.
  • “Know one, know them all” configuration structure.
  • Easy reading and programming with clear alphanumerical display.
  • Clear 12mm(0.5”) numeric digits and 7mm(0.3”) alphanumeric digits.

Typical Applications

  • Basic flow rate monitoring with a precise calculation over the full measurement range, where a connection to an automation network or PLC is required.
  • The B-series offers you an economical solution for common industrial applications. Nothing more, nothing less.

Advantages

  • Basic flow measurement where re-transmission of the flow rate and/or totalizer functions or serial communication is required.
  • The B-Series is our most cost effective display but with all the benefits you may expect from a Fluidwell product: It’s durable, reliable and very easy to operate. Basic with a capital B!
  • Familiar easy operation with the Fluidwell "Know one, know them all" configuration structure, saving time, cost and aggravation.
