INSERTION ELECTROMAGNETIC FLOW SENSOR
No Moving Parts,Durable,Easy Installation & Maintenance,1 to 12˝ Pipe (25 to 305 mm)
The SERIES EFS2 Insertion Electromagnetic Flow Transmitters is an economical,
xed insertion owmeter designed for use with the Series EFF ttings and tees to t
in pipe sizes ranging from 1 to 12˝ (2.5 to 30.5 cm) pipes. This series provides a pulse
rate output of the ow.
FEATURES/BENEFITS
• Long life cycle and less frequent maintenance with no moving parts to wear or break
and electrodes that discourage fouling
• Unaffected by change in temperature, density, viscosity or concentration
• Pulse output for use with a variety of displays and controllers for remote reading
• Easy meter mount display and transmitter accessories for local indication and analog
4 to 20 mA output
APPLICATIONS
• Contaminated liquid ow monitoring
• Flow of conductive liquids
• Water & wastewater treatment
• Industrial systems
• Irrigation applications
• Telemetry applications

Series Description
BATv
RTI2w
PWD
Blind analog transmitter; converts pulse output to 4 to 20 mA
analog output; unit is loop powered, ts on the enclosure of the
meter, and is eld spannable.
Rate total indicator; converts pulse output to 4 to 20 mA analog
output with local ow rate and totalization display; unit is loop
powered, can t on the enclosure of the meter, and provides a
high/low ow alarm.
Pulse divider, for use with pacing electronic metering pumps;
unit divides the input frequency to any number from 1 to 9999
with the use of rotary switches to suit a number of metering
pump inputs. (See website)
