Made for boosting the weak magnetic-pickup signal from a turbine flow sensor, this low-level amplifier raises it to a usable level for ratemeters, counters, and displays. It runs on an 11 to 26 V DC supply, accepts 20 mV to 50 V input, and provides an open-collector pulse output. It tracks pulse rates from ultra-low speed up to 15 kHz. Works great for turbine and paddle-wheel flow pickups.

The OMEGA(R) FLSC-AMP amplifies the low level signals from the magnetic pickup of gear teeth or flow transmitters by a factor of more than a hundred times to drive any OMEGA(R) ratemeter, counter or controller. It is mounted in a rugged 2 x 3" metal housing with screw terminals for easy installation.
NOTE: The low voltage line from the magnetic pickup to the FLSC-AMP should be less than 10' (3 m) in length, shielded and isolated from relays, solenoids or other sources of electrical noise (let the output line make the long run). If the input is too sensitive, lower the 1.1K input impedance by adding a 220 to 1 Kohm resistor across TB1, pins 1 and 2, to increase noise immunity.
