ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
Output Signal
The output signal is a square wave signal where the frequency is proportional to the flow rate. An external, user-supplied
pull-up resistor is required to ensure that the open collector will sink less than 20 mA. Applying a current greater than 20 mA
may damage the sensor.

OPERATION GUIDELINES
• Do not exceed the specific indications.
• The Vision Series meter is a volumetric measuring device. Any air/gas in the liquid will be included in
measured volume.
• Correctly installed, the sensor is maintenance free.
• Do not blow out the turbine flow meter with compressed air. This may damage the bearings.
