Allen Bradley 1771-CFM Configurable Flowmeter Module

Description

The 1771-CFM module is designed for fast and accurate measurement of flow and shaft speed. It supports high-speed totalizing and frequency calculation operations, helping increase throughput while reducing the burden on the PLC processor. This module is ideal for industries requiring precise measurement and control of flow or speed in their systems.

Specifications

• Input Channels: Four configurable input channels for measuring speed, frequency, counts, or volume; also interfaces with a prover.
• Frequency Range: Supports frequencies up to 100 kHz.
• Count Range: Capable of handling counts as large as 9,999,999.
• Compatibility: Works with various Allen-Bradley PLC processors, including PLC 2, PLC 3, and PLC 5 processor families.
• Applications: Suitable for industries such as power generation, automotive, food and beverage, and pipeline (oil, gas, etc.).

Features

• High-Speed Calculations: Performs high-speed totalizing and frequency calculations for efficient data processing.
• Direct Replacement: Can be used as a direct replacement for the 1771-QRC or 1771-QRD module without requiring changes to ladder logic.
• Data Handling: Allows for data to be used or moved before it is overwritten by new data, improving system efficiency.
• Industry Standards: Supports American Gas Association (AGA) and American Petroleum Institute (API) volumetric and mass flow calculations, ensuring compliance with industry standards.
