Obsoloete (?) Fischer Porter flow sensor

Obsoloete (?) Fischer Porter flow sensor

Obsoloete (?) Fischer Porter flow sensor

(OP)
Hi Everyone,

I was asked at work to find out about a Fischer Porter device, which I was told was a liquid flow measurement device. My initial Google and ABB-website searches have yielded nothing helpful, so I was wondering whether anyone could point me in the direction of some documentation about the device:

Fischer Porter
s/n: 8802B2017/2/B1
Model: 50PZ1211C1X2
Supply: 120 V, 60 Hz, 50 VA
1-31' sec input
4-20mA dc output

range ft/sec (4 digit thumbwheel switch - used to specify some sort of setpoint?)
 
Bottom of unit has four threaded (female) openings for conduit. Printed on the bottom left of the front face (protective cover removed) is a label, "MagX".

Any guidance would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Richard Byrne.

Sorry, I assumed that I could remove posts I didn't like. the original posting is exactly the same, and is still in place. See thread181-27567

Richard,

If it is old/obsolete, you probably won't find it on the web. Have you tried contacting ABB directly? Most companies have a library with old paper specs and manuals that they can copy for you (sometimes even for free).
