The FT520 is a batching flow processor with additional
output features. It is designed for use with SeaMetrics
flow meters and flow sensors, as well as other units which
have frequency output proportional to flow. In addition to
batch function, the FT520 indicates flow rate and
accumulated total in large digits on an easily-read backlit
display. Units are user selectable, and range from
milliliters per second to millions of gallons per day.
Batch output is controlled by two relays. The main relay
starts and stops the batch as a set. The auxiliary
“prewarn” relay can be used to operate a second valve,
in order to have a staged shut off at the end of the batch,
for maximum accuracy.
Analog output (4-20 mA, 0-10 VDC, 0-5 VDC) is included
for applications requiring it, such as flow rate logging.
Two programmable pulse outputs are also standard, and
can be used, for example, to provide proportional
chemical feed with a pulse-responsive metering pump.
