Notes:
1) Converted to volumetric flow at +20 ℃ +68 ℉ and 1 atmospheric pressure (101 kPa).
2) The display flow rate range is the case when setting to bi-direction at the flow direction setting. When the flow direction is set to one-side forward direction or one-side reverse direction, the negative side of the display flow rate range shows 10 % of the full-scale (F.S.).
3) The clean air complies with JIS B 8392-1.1.1 to 5.6.2, and the compressed air complies with JIS B 8392-1.1.1 to 1.6.2.
4) As a varistor (clamping voltage: approx. 40 V) is connected to the aluminum body type, do not apply voltage higher than the rated voltage of the sensor.
