The FCU-400 Flow Control Unit is an advanced industrial solution designed to measure and monitor volumetric flow in open channels, drainage systems, and water management infrastructures. Engineered for industrial automation environments, the unit works seamlessly with ultrasonic level meters to deliver reliable real-time flow monitoring and data analysis.

This flow evaluation unit supports modern industrial monitoring requirements by combining precise measurement processing, flexible communication capabilities, and long-term operational reliability. It is commonly used in wastewater treatment plants, water distribution systems, environmental monitoring installations, and industrial process control environments where accurate flow data is critical for operational efficiency.

Key Features

The FCU-400 unit offers a comprehensive set of capabilities for industrial flow monitoring. It supports multi-channel flow measurement, allowing simultaneous monitoring from multiple sensors. Integrated internal memory enables continuous archiving of flow data for long-term analysis and reporting.

The device includes a clear OLED display that provides operators with real-time flow information, graphical indicators, and system status. Built-in communication interfaces enable seamless integration with control systems, SCADA platforms, and industrial monitoring networks.

Design & Functionality

Designed for reliability in demanding industrial environments, the FCU-400 features a durable enclosure suitable for wall-mounted installation. The system processes level data from ultrasonic sensors and converts it into volumetric flow values using configurable conversion curves.

The integrated user interface with membrane keyboard allows quick configuration and monitoring without complex setup procedures. Data can be easily exported through the USB interface for analysis, reporting, or system integration.

Additionally, optional relay outputs and communication interfaces allow the system to control alarms, trigger events, or integrate with broader automation systems.

Total Crossed Beams

The FCU-400 supports simultaneous processing of multiple measurement inputs, allowing operators to monitor several channels at once. This capability improves operational visibility and ensures accurate flow evaluation across multiple drainage or channel systems within a facility.

Beam Pitch Options

Flexible configuration options allow operators to define flow conversion curves and measurement parameters suitable for different channel geometries, ensuring accurate flow calculation across a wide range of applications.

Intrinsic Synchronism

The unit maintains synchronized measurement and processing across all connected sensors. This ensures consistent data collection, reliable process monitoring, and accurate total flow calculation even in complex industrial systems.

Operational Advantages

Industrial facilities benefit from reliable data logging, multi-sensor support, and seamless integration with process control systems. The FCU-400 enables better decision-making through accurate flow monitoring and long-term data archiving.

By providing continuous measurement visibility, the unit helps optimize water management processes, reduce operational risks, and improve overall system efficiency in industrial and environmental monitoring applications.
