GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The Marsh-McBirney Model 2000 Flo-Mate is a portable flowmeter designed for use in both the field
and the laboratory. The unit uses an electromagnetic sensor to measure the velocity in a conductive
liquid such as water. The velocity is in one direction and displayed on a digital display as feet per
second (ft/s) or meters per second (m/s).
A watertight case protects the electronics from wet weather and accidential submersions. The unit is
powered by two D-size batteries in the bottom of the case. A shoulder strap and 20 feet of sensor cable
are standard. Excess sensor cable is coiled and secured to the shoulder strap by the sensor cable re-
tainer.
