Digital interface (RS-232 or RS-485) test/configuration port (optional Modbus RTU with isolated RS-485 transceiver)

Two programmable Totalizers

Full scale covered flow ranges  from 3.5 sml/min to 10 sl/min in seven models

Selectable analog 0-5 Vdc, 0-10 Vdc, or 4-20mA outputs

Universal 14-24 Vdc power supply input



ZFM User Features:

Save time and money by on-site rescaling of your instruments to the desired gas and full scale range. Currently, the following gases are supported: N2, Air, O2, Argon, Helium, and CO2.
