<12. OUTLINE>

Totalizer Display Function (*2):

The flow rate is counted one count at a time accord-

ing to the setting of totalization pulse weights. For

forward and reverse flow measurement functions,

the totalized values of the flow direction (forward or

reverse) and the flow direction are displayed on the

indicator together with the units. The difference of

totalized values between the forward and reverse

flow rate can be displayed. Totalization for the re-

verse flow rate is carried out only when “Forward and

reverse flow measurement functions” is selected.

Damping Time Constant (*2):

The time constant can be set from 1.0 second to

200.0 seconds (63% response). The default is 5

seconds.

When the damping time is short, the output fluctu-

ates. Set the time to 5 seconds or more for control

loop.

Span Setting Function (*2):

Span flows can be set in units such as volume flow

rate, mass flow rate, time, or flow rate value. The

velocity unit can also be set.

Volume Flow Rate Unit: kcf, cf, mcf, Mgal (US), kgal

(US), gal (US), mgal (US), kbbl (US)*,

bbl (US)*, mbbl (US)*, μbbl (US)*, Ml

(megaliter), m

3

, kl (kiloliter), l (liter), cm

3

Mass Flow Rate Unit (Density must be set): klb

(US), lb (US), t (ton), kg, g

Velocity Unit: ft, m (meter)

Time Unit: s (sec), min, h (hour), d (day)

* “US Oil” or “US Beer” can be selected.

Pulse Output (*1)(*2):

Scaled pulse is output one by one according to the

setting of pulse weight.

Pulse Width: Duty 50% or fixed pulse width (0.05,

0.1, 0.5, 1, 20, 33, 50, 100, 200, 330,

500, 1000, 2000 ms) can be selected.

Output Rate: 0.0001 to 10,000 pps (pulses per

second)

Multi-range Functions (*1)(*2):

Automatic range switching

When the flow rate exceeds 100% of the range,

transition to the next range (up to two ranges) is

carried out automatically. Range switching can be

confirmed by the status output and on the indicator.

Forward and Reverse Flow Measurement Func-

tions (*1)(*2):

Flows in both forward and reverse directions can be

measured. The reverse flow measurement can be

confirmed by the status output and on the indicator.

Totalization Switch (*1)(*2):

The status output is carried out when a totalized

value becomes equal to or greater than the set value.

Preset Totalization (*1)(*2):

The parameter setting enables a totalized value to be

preset to a setting value or zero.

Alarm Selection Function (*2):

Alarms are classified into the System Alarms (hard-

ware failure), Process Alarms (such as Signal

Overflow and Adhesion Alarm), Setting Alarms, and

Warnings. Process Alarms and Setting Alarms can be

activated or deactivated for each item. The current

output for an alarm can be selected from the follow-

ing settings. If any System Alarm occurs, turn the

power off and back on again to return to the normal

condition.

System Alarm: 21.6 mA or more, 3.2 mA or less

Process Alarm, Setting Alarm:

21.6 mA or more, 20.5 mA, HOLD

(fixed to the current value before

the alarm), 4 mA, 3.8 mA, 3.2

mA or less.

The default settings of each alarm are as follows:

Standard

Optional

code C1

System Alarm

21.6 mA or more 3.2 mA or less

Process Alarm
Setting Alarm

Note: In the case of style: S1 with optional code C1, the

current output is set up to 3.8 mA during Process

Alarms and Setting Alarms.

NE-107 Alarm Message (*2):

Alarms are classified into 4 categories by NAMUR

NE-107 and can be displayed.

-F: Failure

-C: Function check

-S: Out of specification

-M: Maintenance required

Alarm Output (*1)(*2):

Alarms are generated only for the items selected

via the ‘Alarm Selection Function’ if relevant failures

occur.

Self Diagnosis Functions (*2):

When an alarm is output, details of the System

Alarms, Process Alarms, Setting Alarms, and Warn-

ings are displayed together with the specific descrip-

tion of corresponding countermeasures.

Results of mean flow measurement during a given

period, etc. can be checked by using parameters.

Flow Rate Upper/Lower Limit Alarms (*1)(*2):

If a flow rate becomes out of the predetermined

range, the alarm output is generated.

Electrode Adhesion Diagnosis Function (*1) (*2):

This function enables checking of the adhesion level

of insulating substances to the electrodes. Depend-

ing on the status of adhesion, users are notified by a

warning or an alarm via status outputs.

While adhesion diagnosis is being carried out (ap-

proximately 5 minutes), a current of 4 mA is output

because the flow measurement is not performed.

Adhesion diagnosis should only be carried out when

the fluid velocity is completely zero by closing the

valve.

When adhesion diagnosis is carried out, change the

control loop to the manual mode first.

Data Security during Power Failure:

Data (parameters, totalization value, etc.) storage by

EEPROM. No back-up battery required.

Low Cut (*2):

In this function, the values of the current output along

with LCD indication, totalization, and pulse, which are

corresponding to setting span of 0 to 20%, are fixed

at 0% (including reverse flow). The default setting is

3%.

When the Low Cut point is small, the incorrect output

may occur at the flow rate of zero. Set the Low Cut

point to 3% or more. If the span is small, the damping

time is short or the fluid is low conductivity, the incor-

rect output may easily occur at the flow rate of zero.
