OVERVIEW
Introduction
The F013 is a versatile flow rate indicator and totalizer with continous flow rate monitoring feature. It offers the facility to set one low flow rate and one high flow rate alarm value. If desired, a delay function can be set up to allow for an incorrect flow rate for a certain period of time. A wide selection of options further enhance this models capabilities.
Display
The display has large 17mm (0.67”) and 8mm (0.31”) digits which can be set to show flow rate, totals and alarm values. On-screen engineering units are easily configured from a comprehensive selection. The accumulated total can register up to 11 digits and is backed-up in EEPROM memory every minute, just as the running total. Related to the lower temperatures, the update frequency of the LCD is tuned automatically to achieve a readable display even at -40°C / -40°F.
Backlight
The tri-color backlight in combination with the F013 offers a unique feature: in case of a flow rate alarm, the backlight can be set to be red or flashing red / green. The background color can be set to green or amber and the intensity can be adjusted from the keyboard. The display is a transflective type, which means that a high contrast reading is guaranteed in full sunlight as well as during the night. This backlight option is also available Intrinsically Safe.
Configuration
All configuration settings are accessed via a simple operator menu which can be pass-code protected. Each setting is clearly indicated with an alphanumerical description. Once familiar with one F-series product, you will be able to program all models in the series without a manual. All settings are safely stored in EEPROM memory.
Alarm output
One alarm output is available to transmit the flow rate alarm. It can be set to switched for a low, high or both alarms! The output signal can be a passive NPN, active PNP or an isolated electro-mechanical relay.
Signal Input
The F013 will accept most pulse and analog input signals for flow or mass flow measurement. The input signal type can be selected by the user in the configuration menu without having to adjust any sensitive mechanical dip-switches, jumpers or trimmers. The analog input version is even available as 4 - 20mA input loop powered display.
Power Supply
Several power supply options are available to power the F013 and sensor. Most popular is our battery powered version with a long life lithium battery which will last up to five years. For analog sensors, a 4 - 20mA loop powered version is available as well. A real sensor supply is offered with the 24V AC / DC or 115 - 230V AC power supply option.
Hazardous Area
For hazardous area applications, this model has been ATEX, IECEx, FM and CSA certified Intrinsically Safe for gas and dust applications, with an allowed operational temperature of -40°C to +70°C (-40°F to +158°F). A flame proof enclosure with ATEX certification offers the rating II 2 GD EExd IIB T5.
Enclosures
Various types of enclosures can be selected, all ATEX, IECEx, FM and CSA approved. As standard the F013 is supplied in a GRP panel mount enclosure. Most popular is our aluminum field mount enclosure with IP67 / NEMA 4X rating. Both European or U.S. cable gland entry threads are available.

ORDERING INFORMATION
Standard Model Number Configuration (example): F013-P-HC-OT-PX-XX-ZX
To aid in the construction of a Fluidwell model number a model configurator must be used. The path to this Configurator is contained in the link shown below. However, it would help to first review the options shown below.
NOTE: If you require the product to be Intrinsically Safe (ATEX, IECEx, CSA c-us or FM.), the options you choose should only include those options that carry the ATEX symbol next to them. The Configurator will not allow you to mix and match options, unless the product is to be used in a Safe Area.
Once a new model is generated using the Configurator, you will
- see the price of the fully configured model
- have an opportunity to purchase the product
- have the capability to e-mail the configuration to us, yourself, or a third person
