F132

Safe area / Intrinsically safe - Batch Controller

with two-stage control and receipt printer driver

Product description

The F132 is a straight forward two stage batch controller with the unique function to send a “print receipt” command to a printer after every batch. The operator can easily enter a batch quantity, send an extra “print receipt” command or execute repeating batches.
During the batch, the preset value is displayed as well as the batched (or remaining) quantity including the units of measurement. The automatic self-learning overrun correction ensures an accurate result after each batch.

Advantages
  • Robust aluminum or stainless steel 316L field enclosure (IP65, IP67 / NEMA Type4X) .
    It is so rugged, a truck can even stand on it!
  • Intrinsically Safe available - ATEX and IECEx approval for gas and dust applications.
  • Familiar easy operation with the Fluidwell "Know one, know them all" configuration structure, saving time, cost and aggravation.
  • Very diverse mounting possibilities: walls, pipes, panels or directly onto outdoor sensors.
