Description

The +GF+SIGNET 2540 offers the added strength and corrosion resistance of stainless steel for applications with low velocity measurements.Unique internal circuitry eliminates the need for magnets in the process fluid,enabling lower flow measurement while maintain-ing the advantages of insertion sensor design.Now utilizing Fluoroloy B bear-ings and Tungsten Carbide pin for exceptional wear resistance.Improved circuitry provides greater immunity to large voltage disturbances encountered in field wiring.The 2517 Brass High Performance sensor signal allows for remote totalization when coupled with the 5100 Battery operated Flow Monitor.
