F-2000
BW DIGI-METER® Digital Paddlewheel Flow Meter
The BW DIGI-METER® F-2000 Paddlewheel Flow Meter features a digital readout on an LCD screen, displaying flow rate and total flow. Water range is between 0.4 and 8000 GPM, and it can fit 3/8″ to 12″ pipe sizes. Every F-2000 flow meter is easy-to-read and easy to use, operating on either an AC/DC transformer or 4 AA batteries (which vary by model).
Model variations include:
RT = Rate and totalizer. Transformer or battery operated.
AO = 4-20mA, 0-10 VDC analog output, flow rate, and totalizer. Transformer operated.
PC = Batch processing, flow rate alarm, proportional metering, flow rate, and totalizer. Transformer operated.
AP = Analog output, batch processing, flow rate alarm, proportional chemical metering, flow rate, and totalizer. Transformer operated.
