Note 1) Refer to “Applicable Fluids List” on page 17.
Note 2) 0 L/min is displayed when the flow is less than zero-cut flow.
Note 3) When fluids with high temperature are used, the available pressure range will be reduced. (For details, refer to “Operating Pressure Range” on page 4.)
Note 4) Cleared when the power supply is turned off. Hold function can be selected. (Interval of 2 or 5 minutes can be selected.) If the 5 minutes interval is selected,
the life of the memory element (electronic parts) is limited to 1 million cycles. (If energized for 24 hours, life is calculated as 5 minutes x 1 million = 5 million
minutes = about 9.5 years.) Therefore, if using the hold function, calculate the memory life for your operating conditions, and use within this life.
Note 5) The response time when the set value is 63% in relation to the step input.
Note 6) The response time until the set value reaches 63% in relation to the step input. There might be a 0.05 seconds delay at response time of 0.25 s or
0.5 s due to the timing of internal processing.
Note 7) The stability of display and Analogue output improves by increasing the response time. (For details, refer to “Stability” on page 4.)
Note 8) When options are used, add the weight of the optional parts.
Note 9) Enclosure is for digital flow switch with lead wire and M12 connector. With no lead wire and M12 connector, enclosure is IP40.
Note 10) Piping port and the metal part of the body are grounded to DC(–)/blue line. Power supply with positive ground cannot be used. Please consult
SMC if the product is used for positive ground environment.
