Digital FlowCom Register Model FC101 for Local and Remote Flow Measurement
Municipal Water and Wastewater Treatment, Agriculture, Turf Irrigation, Drip and Sprinkler Irrigation, and Marine Systems Testing
Hemet, CA-July 25, 2007-With an advanced low power microprocessor design, the new digital FlowCom(TM) Register from McCrometer provides simultaneous flow rate and volumetric totalized flow data for McCrometer's popular Water Specialties Propeller Meter(TM) in a wide range of water monitoring applications.
Designed to replace electro-mechanical counters, the FlowCom Model FC101 features an easy-to-read two-line display. The five-digit top line of the display indicates flow rate and the eight digit bottom line of the display provides volumetric flow data. Up to 22 different output measurement units, including gallons, cubit feet and liters, are user selectable.
The intelligent FlowCom Register Model FC101 can be specified for either local direct meter reading or for remote operation monitoring. It is ideal for local direct reading and remote or large SCADA monitoring applications in a wide range of water and water treatment applications. With its remote-mount option, the FC101 can be mounted away from confined spaces where combustible and hazardous gases may be present.
The versatile FC101 digital display retrofits with the Water Specialties Propeller Meter and is available with four different output options: contact closure, open collector, optically isolated open collector and a 4-20mA loop. Exceptionally easy-to-use, the FC101 is programmable via a simple magnetic wand with menu-driven features and includes a four-digit access lock-out to maintain security. All electronics are sealed in a NEMA 4X enclosure for use in rugged operating environments.
The FC101 is designed with two input power options. The FC101 includes a long-life Lithium battery, nonvolatile memory to protect flow data, and is an excellent option for single-point meter-mount or small systems monitoring. For larger applications and/or remote monitoring, a DC-powered 4-20mA loop configuration can be integrated with a distributed control system (DCS). The 4-20mA loop requires a 12-40 Vdc power supply and can be mounted up to 5,000 feet away from the meter.
McCrometer's new digital FlowCom Register and the Water Specialties Propeller Meter set the industry standard for liquid flow measurement performance, ease-of-use and value in municipal water and wastewater treatment, agriculture, turf irrigation, drip and sprinkler irrigation, and marine systems testing. With the demand and the cost for water continuously rising, the need for farmers, growers, facility managers and other high volume users to manage water wisely has never been more important.
The Water Specialties Propeller Meter is the best choice for measuring clean water flows in municipal and industrial applications. The meter is engineered to deliver superior performance, low maintenance and unsurpassed durability. Meter materials and performance meet or exceed AWWA standard C704/92.
Water Specialties Propeller Meters are manufactured using precise techniques and high quality materials. For example, long-life ceramic thrust bearings and a cast bronze gearbox produce the best propeller meter available.
Measurement accuracy is +/- 2% of reading. The meter accommodates flow ranges from 35 GPM to 200,000 GPM. The Water Specialties Propeller Meter can be installed vertically, horizontally or inclined, with sizes ranging from 2" to 120".
