K factors (in pulse/l)
Flow rate range
0,5 - 50 l/h
2 - 100 l/h
15 - 500 l/h
If the 8071 sensor is combined with an electronic device
which does not automatically convert the K factors, make
the conversion using one of the following formulae:
K factor in imp/gallon US = K factor in imp/l x 3,785 to
obtain flow rate in gallon US / time unit
K factor in imp/gallon UK = K factor in imp/l x 4,546 to
obtain flow rate in gallon UK / time unit.
Type 8071
