Product Description
The MX 9000 Flow Monitor is a versatile, multi-functional device that helps you track rate, flow, limit,
ratio, and other variables. The unit’s multicolor back-lighted LCD display is easy-to-read with up to 22
different display modes available, depending on model. The standard unit is one channel, but the
optional two-channel version allows you to monitor dual flows and display them in a number of ways:
separately, as a sum (for example in total material use), as a difference (as in fuel consumption), or as a
ratio of product A/product B. You can also use the MX 9000 to detect bi-directional flow when A and B
channel signals are available from a single flow meter. Other capabilities include the capacity to monitor
data and program the unit remotely. Four model variations give the MX 9000 the capability of
performing limit, warning and alarm duties and batching.
Principle of Operation
After first making connections to the power source and to flow transmitter input and output, you can
choose up to 22 display modes. These include rates, totals, ratios, limits and others, based on the model
purchased. Then input k- factor values, the required engineering units, gate times, limits, etc. A 20 point
linearizer is built-in for added display accuracy. You may also program other values such as
warning/alarm limits and ratios, depending on model.
