INTRODUCTION

The PORTAFLOW™ 216 is a portable flow meter designed by Micronics for use on liquid flows in full pipes, which utilises Ultrasonic transit-time “Clamp-On” transducer technology.

Easy to operate, the Portaflow 216 features are as follows:

•Large easy to read Graphics Display with backlighting.

•Simple FAST TRACK set up procedure.

•Simple to follow keypad.

•IP55 electronics enclosure.

•Guide rail assembly with chains.

•Pulse Output or 4-20mA (optional)

•10hr Battery (rechargeable).

•Self-checking diagnostics.

•Continuous signal monitoring.

The instrument displays volumetric flow rate in m3/hr, m3/min, m3/sec, g/min, US g/min, US g/hr, l/min, l/sec and linear velocity in metres and feet per second. The display shows the total volume both positive and negative with up to a maximum of 12 digits.

The following simple guide will enable the user to quickly set up the flow meter to measure flow. Additional data on the facilities available and many useful hints are also contained in this manual.
