Flowmeters with IR wireless remote access aids reading of trouble-shooting codes

Paul Boughton

Utilising a wireless IR technology built-in to the ST50 and ST75 flow meters and a standardlow cost PDAfield technicians can obtain measurementsmake setting changes and read trouble-shooting codes without ever having to open the instrument. This feature is suitable in applications for flow meters that are installed in hard-to-reach locations or where opening the instrument is inconvenient or labour intensive.

The wireless IR link eliminates the need for expensive proprietary programmerswhich simplifies maintenance.

FCI’s wireless IR sensing capability is included in all ST50 and ST75 air/gas flow meters with a digital display readout. FCI also supplies user interface software for downloading into any Palm-OS based PDA.
