About the Flow Pulse Handheld Controller
The Flow Pulse Handheld is designed specifically for use with the
Flow Pulse sensor. It is a complete, battery-powered, portable platform
that complements the Flow Pulse, offering the ability to view traces,
perform data logging, as well as to save and program parameters on the
Flow Pulse.
Functional Description
The Flow Pulse Handheld uses the latest Li-ion rechargeable battery
technology to provide up to 5 hours of continuous use on one full charge.
The Flow Pulse Handheld uses a RS485 link for communication with
the sensor, enabling the use of a long cable.
The Flow Pulse Handheld has 4 GB of on-board storage. This offers
logging capacity of up to 1 year at 10 seconds interval.
Data transfer with the PC is achieved via a mini-USB connection, and logs
can be converted into Excel format.
Parameter files can be saved or loaded onto Flow Pulse using the
handheld, and as on the FlowPulse PC, frequently used parameters on the
Flow Pulse can be easily set.
By porting all the main features available on the FlowPulse PC onto a
battery-powered handheld controller, the Flow Pulse is immediately
transformed into a portable flow monitoring instrument.
The Flow Pulse Handheld is compatible with any existing Flow
Pulse.
