PT420 Signal Conditioner

The PT420 Frequency Converter is a microcontroller based rate/totalizer designed for both, Liquid and Gas Applications. The unit has PC programming and monitoring capability through a RS-232/USB type data link and it also offers the option to set the minimum and maximum flow rate thresholds through two on board pairs of switches and LED indicators.

  • Description

    The PT420 Frequency Converter is a microcontroller based rate/totalizer designed for both, Liquid and Gas Applications. The unit has PC programming and monitoring capability through a RS-232/USB type data link and it also offers the option to set the minimum and maximum flow rate thresholds through two on board pairs of switches and LED indicators. The two selectable PT420 inputs accept sine and square wave signals generated by passive and, respectively, active magnetic pickup coil probes. Computations include calculation of liquid flowrate in Pulses per Second based on the turbine pulse rate and in Gallons per Minute based on the predetermined turbine k-factor.
