Description
The OmniPlus-VHSX flow transmitter is designed to monitor viscous media like oil, utilising a volumetric principle with two interlacing screws driven by the flowing medium to achieve measurements largely independent of viscosity. It features an easy-to-read backlit graphical LCD display, analogue output (4-20mA or 0-10V), and two programmable switches, operable through a programming ring for settings adjustments and protection against unintended changes. The transmitter’s construction includes a stainless steel case with a hardened mineral glass pane and an Aluminium housing, suitable for industrial use and capable of operation and measurement in both forward and reverse flow directions
