Series 400
Eldridge Products, Inc. (EPI) is a proven leader in gas flow measurement. Our Master-Touch™ thermal dispersion gas mass flow meters and patented Flow Averaging Tubes set the standard for innovation, performance and reliability. Our ValuMass™ Series 500 flow meters enjoyed a successful introduction into the marketplace, and now our compact Series 400 offer another lower cost option for many flow applications with the high value associated with all of EPI’s flow measurement instrumentation.
ValuMass™ Flowmeters: Series 400
The Series 400 ValuMass™ flowmeters include 16-bit linearization technology for excellent flow rate accuracy and rugged construction of 316/316L stainless steel wetted parts. The robust feature set includes:
- a 0 – 5 or 0 – 10 VDC output
- a 4 – 20mA output
- RS485 Modbus RTU communications
- a 0 – 1 kHz output proportional flow
- an RS232C port
- a 2-line, 16-character backlit LCD
- a programmable dry contact Relay for alarms or pulsed output totalization
ValuMass™ inline and insertion flowmeters accommodate virtually all installation requirements. The Series 400 inline style flow¬meters are available for line sizes from ¼” to 2”. The 3 ½” long flow sections have MNPT ends as standard for easy mounting in the process line. Other end fittings are available. The Series 440 insertion style flowmeters are available with 6”, 12” or 18” long probes which include a compression fitting. Other mounting options are available. ValuMass™ flowmeters accept 24VDC, 115VAC or 230VAC input power as specified at the time of purchase.
The ValuMass™ Series 400 is CE compliant.
