RA1**B1RD@ <br />Flow Sensors - NPT <br />Flow Sensing for Maxicom2", SiteControl"", IQvIO, ESP-LXD, ESP-LXMEF <br />Rain Bird flow sensors send flow data to central <br />control or stand-alone control systems for <br />precise and accurate flow monitoring. Rain Bird <br />flow sensors enableyou to capitalize on the <br />advantages of Flow Sensing functionality. Use <br />Rain Bird Flow Sensors with Rain Bird Maxicom=, <br />SiteControl and IQ v2.0 central control <br />applications or In standalone systems using <br />Rain Bird ESP-LXD and ESP-LXMEF controllers to <br />benefit from: <br />Flo -Watch". Flo -Watch constantly monitors <br />for low flow and excess flow conditions <br />caused by broken lines or heads, automatically <br />quarantines and shuts down the problem area <br />and continues to irrigate non affected areas. <br />Saves water, saves plant material and enables <br />irrigation programs to continue and complete. <br />(Note: SiteControl does not offer low flow <br />detection.) <br />Learned Flow.The controller automatically <br />learns station flow rates resulting in more <br />accu rate flow rates. The automatic collection <br />prevents you from having to manually enter <br />data from drawings or physically visiting each <br />valveto collectflow data and manually entering <br />the data into a controller. (Note: Maxicom and <br />SiteControl do not offer Learned Flow.) <br />FloManager®. FloManagerdetermines the <br />optimal station irrigating sequence.The system <br />runs at its fullest capacity until programs are <br />complete.The controller automatically selects <br />and runs multlplevalves atthe sametime <br />within hydraulic parameters allowing for shorter <br />waterwindows. Flow rates may be manually <br />measured and entered into the controllerto <br />utilize FloManagerfunctionality. Using a flow <br />sensorand learned flow capabilities can help to <br />optimize system performance. <br />Customers with ESP-LXME units only need <br />to purchase a Flow Smart Module forthe <br />ESP-LXME to capitalize on Flo -Watch, Learned <br />Flow and FloManager. Add IQv2.0to remotely <br />manage your ESP-LXD, ESP-LXMEF and ESP- <br />LXME controllers. Centrally managing your <br />co ntro I leis with IQ v2.0 saves labo r a n d time <br />by eliminating constant monitoring ofthe site <br />and trips to the controllers. Retrieve alarms or <br />receive alarms via email regarding problem <br />areas to dispatch maintenance personnel to <br />check and repair. (Note: In addition to IQ2, <br />Maxicom and SiteControl can also be used to <br />remotely monitor flow from a computer.) <br />Configuration <br />Maxicom= and SiteControl -(Hard Vire) <br />Two -Wire Satellite Systems: The Flow Sensor <br />is installed with a Pulse Transmitter and a Rain <br />Bird Pu Ise Decoder (DECPU LLR). (Note: Pulse <br />Decoders can be hooked up directly to atwo <br />wire path.) <br />Maxicom; -Link Radio Satellite Systems: The <br />Flow Sensor is installed with a Pulse Transmitter <br />(no decoder required). (Note: Pulse Transmitter <br />connects to the Satellite sensor input.) <br />SiteControl - Decoder System: Software <br />version 2.X or lower, the flow sensor is installed <br />with a PulseTransmitter and aTwo-Wire Decoder <br />Sensor Decoder (SD210TU RF). Software version <br />3.X or higher,the flow sensor is Installedwith <br />a Two -Wire Decoder Sensor Decoder (pulse <br />transmitter is optional). (Note: Sensor Decoders <br />can be hooked up directlyto a two wire path.) <br />ESP-LXD Decoder Two -Wire Controller: <br />The Flow Sensor is installed with a Two -Wire <br />Decoder Sensor Decoder (SD210TURF) <br />con nectedtothe two -wire path (no pulse <br />transmitter required). <br />ESP-LXMEF Traditionally -Wired Controller: <br />The flow sensor connects to the controller Flow <br />Smart Module (no pulse transmitter, no decoder <br />required). Maximum distance from flow sensor <br />to controller is 2000ft. <br />Surge protection (FSSURGEKIT) is recommended <br />for most systems -One at the Flow Sensor, and <br />if morethan 50'ofwire run, one at the Pulse <br />Transmitter. FSSU RGEKIT Is not required forTwo- <br />Wire Decoder Systems and not com patible with <br />the ESP-LXMEF Flow Smart Module. <br />Features (Sensors) <br />• Simple six -bladed impeller design <br />Designed for outdoor or underground <br />applications <br />• Available in PVC, brass or stainless steel <br />construction <br />Pre-installed i n tee or insert versions <br />Features (Transmitters) <br />Reliable solid-state design <br />Display or signal -alone versions <br />Easy -to -program, menu -driven design <br />Programmable from a laptop computer <br />(PT322 - Maxicom and SiteControl Systems <br />only - not required forESP-LXMEF or <br />ESP-LXD) <br />Operates with both MAXILiri and (hard <br />wire) two -wire satellite systems <br />Mounted in optional NEMA enclosure <br />(PT3002 only) <br />Tech Spec <br />FS- 100 - B (Flow Sensors) <br />rM 7 In <br />FS= B=Brass <br />Flow P= Plastic (PVq <br />Sensor SS=Stainless Steel <br />too <br />=1,(25mm) 400-4"(1 10mm) <br />150=11/'"(40mm) 350=3'l75mm) <br />200=2'(50mm) and higher <br />300=3" (75mm) <br />PT— <br />322 (Pulse Transmitters) <br />7!"llmo <br />322 = No read out <br />3002 =Digital readout <br />PT= <br />Pulse <br />Transmitter <br />
