The Insight+ is an all digital pressure and flow indicator that displays the pressure and the flow rate at the discharge. This digital pressure and flow indicator has a 4-digit LED display with daylight bright digits 0.56 inch high. The meter electronics are self contained and all program features are accessed via push buttons on the front of the display. The pressure/flow indicator is able to communicate with other display modules over a datalink. This technology allows for remote displays, the display of flow for multiple discharges (summing), and the totalization of flow for multiple discharges (accumulation). Pressure information is from a pressure sensor and flow rate is provided by a paddlewheel type flow sensor, both are mounted in the discharge. This information is processed and shown on the digital display.
Fire Research InsightPlus model FPA500-080 combination digital pressure and flow indicator kit shall be installed. The kit shall include a display module, pressure sensor, paddlewheel flow sensor, flow sensor housing with a mount for 8" plumbing, and interconnecting cables. The module case shall be waterproof, manufactured of anodized machined aluminum, and have dimensions not to exceed 3-1/4" high by 3-1/4" wide by 2" deep. The module shall have two LEDs to indicate pressure or flow mode and a digital display with super bright digits more than 1/2" high.
