AquaMaster 3 FET200
Electromagnetic flowmeter
Transmitter
The smart solution for
remote applications
Introduction
AquaMaster 3TM is a range of high performance
electromagnetic flowmeters for the measurement of
electrically-conductive fluids and is normally supplied as
factory-configured, calibrated systems.
This User Guide provides end-user details for
AquaMaster 3 close-coupled and remote transmitters.
When the meter is taken out of storage and installed for
first use, remove the protective label (if fitted) from the
front to enable light to activate the unit.
If the meter is not powered, connect any batteries or
external supply as detailed in this manual.
For a comprehensive overview of publications available
for the AquaMaster 3 transmitter, refer to the inside
cover of this publication. Web links, QR code and
reference numbers are also included.
