FLYP01.ING
Compatible with Woltman dry-running meters in all
nominal sizes. Can be used instead of a mechanical
drum counter.

Description of operation
The rotating movement of the impeller is transferred
by magnetic coupling to the sensor system of the
FLYPPER electronic counter module. A built -in
microprocessor evaluates the sensor signals produced.
It counts the number of impeller revolutions, detects
the direction of rotation and measures the time for each
revolution. The microprocessor calculates the volume
flowing through the meter from these parameters and
adds up the meter reading. The current flow rate is
calculated from the time for one impeller rotation.
The FLYPPER module can be read out via M -Bus, L-
Bus or optical interface.
The module is powered externally from the M-Bus
when this bus is connected. The internal battery is
switched off in this case. The built -in lithium battery is
rated to give the module a lifetime of 10 years without
an external power supply.
Counter modules with the following functions are
available for connection over the built-in 5-wire cable
