NEWPORT’s new FP7002 Series Paddlewheel Flow and Temperature Sensor/Transmitter system provides a low cost, factory calibrated, simple, and easy to install solutionfor applications requiring a remote long distance flow and temperature sensor located away from the main indicating meter or control instrumentation. When ordered with an NEWPORT ® installation fitting, the sensor/transmitter is factory calibrated to match the flow rate of the fitting selected. Example: if you ordered an FP7002 sensor/transmitter with an FP7010 PVC fitting, the analog output of the transmitter will be factory calibrated to give 20 mA output at the max flow rate of 50 GPM and 4 mA out at 0 GPM. The analog output can be converted to 1 to 5 Vdc output in the field without recalibrating the system. Also now included into the FP7002 design at no extra charge is an independent temperature sensor/ transmitter with an industry standard 2-wire, 4 to 20 mA loop output scaled over a 0 to 100°C (32 to 212°F) temperature range. |

Fluid Temperature/Pressure Range:
Do not exceed maximum ratings of your piping.
Depending on the material of the fitting, the operating temperature/ pressure may be limited by your piping and not by the sensor.
For all PVC tee fittings, do not exceed 150 psig @ 27°C (80°F), 100 psig @ 38°C (100°F), 60 psig @ 49°C (120°F) or 30 psig @ 60°C (140°F), due to the insert in the tee.
FP7000 sensor: 0 to 26°C (32 to 80°F) up to 150 psig; max pressure decreases 1.1 psig per each 0.56°C (1°F) above 27°C (80°F) for a max temperature of 93°C (200°F) at 18 psig max.
