Description

The +GF+ SIGNET 8550 Flow Transmitter is an advanced solution that converts the signal from all +GF+ SIGNET flow sensors into a 4 to 20 mA signal for long distance transmission. Configuration flexibility is maximized with two optional relays for process control, two packaging options for integral/pipe mount or panel installation, and scalability for virtually any flow range or engineering unit. State-of-the-art electronic design ensures long-term reliability, signal stability, and simple user setup and operation.
