5.2. General description
5.2.1. construction
The 8012 flowmeter comprises the SE12 electronics incorporating
the measuring paddle-wheel and an S012 fitting allowing the device
to be fitted to all types of pipes from DN6 to DN65.
The sensor detects the rotation of the paddle-wheel; it generates a
signal in which the frequency f is proportional to the rotation frequency
of the paddle-wheel.
The electronic module is fitted with 2 LEDs visible by transparency on
the side of the housing:
• A green LED is on when the device is energized (the paddle-
wheel is not running) and then flashes proportionally to the
rotation frequency of the paddle-wheel.
• A red LED signals a malfunction of the flowmeter (see chap.
10.4.1).
