The IFC 300 is a full-featured signal converter for electromagnetic flowmeters, compatible with nearly all OPTIFLUX, WATERFLUX, TIDALFLUX and OPTIPROBE flow sensors. It maintains strong performance in difficult applications such as low-conductivity media, high solids content, entrained air, and corrosive or abrasive fluids, and it is approved under custody transfer regulations including OIML and MID. Extensive device and process diagnostics, a wide choice of I/O and fieldbus communication, and four housing styles let it fit almost any process requirement. Virtual reference grounding allows installation without grounding rings.
