General Information Specifications
The SeaMetrics AO45 is a compact pulse to analog con-
verter. Combined with an IP insertion flow sensor or a
WT turbine meter, it is ideal for flow rate recording, PLC
or data logger input, and proportional chemical feed. The
unit is available in a wallmount enclosure or in a round
cast-aluminum housing mounted directly on a SeaMetrics
meter. The nonmetallic wallmount enclosure is splash-
proof and has a clear cover.
The 4-20 mA analog output is suitable for telemetry,
metering pump pacing, data logging, or control applica-
tions. Trimpots are used to adjust the 4 mA and 20 mA
setpoints. The unit can be factory-calibrated or user
calibrated with the proper equipment. The output is a 4-
20 mA current source, which is compatible with elec-
tronic metering pumps, programmable controllers and
computer input cards.
