Paddlewheel Flow Transmitter – FLS F6.30
The FLS F6.30 is a paddlewheel-based blind transmitter designed for measuring all types of solid-free liquids. It offers versatile output options, including a 4-20 mA signal for long-distance transmission and a Solid State Relay (SSR) that can be configured as an alarm or volumetric pulse output.
Equipped with a USB interface and dedicated software (available for free download from the FLS website), the F6.30 allows easy calibration and intuitive output configuration directly from a PC.
Its precision-engineered design delivers accurate flow measurements across a wide dynamic range, suitable for pipe sizes from DN15 (0.5”) to DN600 (24”).
