Description

 

Series BT-41 BlueMax ™ Flow meters

Low Cost / High Value

Our BlueMax™  Series BM-41 offer another lower cost option for “boiler” flow applications with the high value associated with all of EPI’s flow measurement instrumentation.

BlueMax™ flow meters include a robust feature set: 0 – 5, 10 VDC, 4 – 20mA, RS485 Modbus RTU and optional 0 – 1 kHz outputs (proportional to the gas mass flow rate); an RS232C port; 16-bit linearization technology for flow rate accuracy; a fully programmable relay; and rugged construction of 316/316L stainless steel wetted parts. An optional 2-line, 16-character backlit LCD displays the flow rate and the elapsed total readouts.

BlueMax™ inline and insertion flow meters accommodate virtually all installation requirements.  The Series BM-41 insertion style flow meters are available with 6”, 12” or 18” long probes (Optional compression fitting for mounting). Other mounting options are available. BlueMax™ flow meters accept 24VDC, 115VAC or 230VAC input power as specified at the time of purchase.
