Fluidwell D014 DIN Panel Mount Flow Rate Indicator | Ratio Control

The Fluidwell D014 DIN Panel Mount Flow Rate Indicator is a specialized dual-input instrument designed for precise ratio monitoring and blending applications. Engineered to fit industry-standard 144 x 72mm panel cut-outs, this indicator provides real-time visualization of the ratio between two separate flow streams, as well as individual flow rates and totals.

Description

Advanced Dual-Input Ratio Monitoring

The Fluidwell D014 DIN Panel Mount Flow Rate Indicator serves as an intelligent hub for mixing and blending processes. By processing pulse or analog signals from two independent flowmeters simultaneously, the unit calculates and displays the exact ratio between Flow A and Flow B. This functionality is critical for ensuring product consistency and maintaining chemical balance in continuous industrial systems where two fluids must be combined with absolute precision.

Standardized Design for Rapid Configuration

As part of the Fluidwell D-Series, this indicator follows the standardized “Know one, know them all” configuration philosophy. If you have experience with any F-Series or D-Series instrument, setting up the D014 is intuitive and fast, which significantly reduces commissioning time and minimizes the risk of human error. The unit fits perfectly into standard 144 x 72mm panel cut-outs, offering a professional and uniform appearance across your entire control console.

Industrial Durability and Data Security

Industrial environments demand resilience. The front panel of the Fluidwell D014 DIN Panel Mount Flow Rate Indicator is rated IP65 (NEMA Type 4), providing a robust seal against dust and water—ideal for panels located in wash-down areas or dusty facilities. Furthermore, the device prioritizes data integrity; all configuration settings and accumulated totals are automatically saved in non-volatile EEPROM memory. This ensures that your critical process data remains secure even during power maintenance or unexpected system shutdowns.
