SELECTION ITEM DESCRIPTIONS AND
SPECIFICATIONS
ControlWave GFC Plus is ordered using a model
number specication. The complete model number
specication is included at the end of this product
data document.
Standard equipment includes berglass housing
with 2-line LCD and 2 function keys, ControlWave
Express RTU package with single board main elec-
tronics assembly and the standard API 21.1 ow
measurement application program. Standard I/O
