General Information
FT420 Flow Computer
Instructions(Pre-11/00)
The FT420 is a loop-powered microcontroller-based
transmitter/indicator. It displays rate and total, and pro-
vides a 4-20 mA analog signal proportional to flow. A
programmable pulse output is also standard for meter-
ing pump control or data logging.
The rugged cast-aluminum housing is gasketed for
maximum environmental protection, and the electron-
ics are potted into a solid block of urethane. A mem-
brane keypad allows settings to be changed without
removing the cover. The universal mount version
comes with brackets for wall mounting, and also with
an adapter for field installation on 80-series flow sen-
sors. The FT420 can also be factory or field installed
on a TX100/200 series sensor or WT meter.
