Pulse Output

IMPORTANT

• As this is a transistor contact (insulated type),

give attention to proper voltage and polarity
when wiring.

• Do not apply a voltage larger than 30V DC or a

current larger than 0.2A in order to prevent
damage to the instrument.

• When input filter constant of the electronic

counter is large in relation to the pulse width,
the signal will decrease and the count will not
be accurate.

• If the input impedance of the electronic counter

is large, an induction noise from the power
supply may result in inaccurate counts. Use a
shield cable or sufficiently reduce the input
impedance of the electronic counter within the
electromagnetic flowmeter pulse output specifi-
cation range.

• The active pulse output (Optional Code EM)

cannot be used in conjunction with the standard
pulse output.

• When the active pulse output (Optional Code

EM) is selected, do not be short-circuit between
the P+ and P– terminals to avoid damaging the
instrument.

• When the active pulse output (Optional code

EM) is selected, the range of pulse rate must
be set to 2 pps maximum.

• To avoid communication (BRAIN/ HART)

failure, it is recommended to use the shield
cable.

Status Input

IMPORTANT

Status inputs are designed for use with no-
voltage (dry) contacts. Be careful not to connect
the status to any signal source carrying voltage.
Applying voltage may damage the input circuit.
