5 USE

When using the system the flowmeter sends pulses to the computer which will indicate instantaneous
flowrate based on the constant value previously set.
The flowmeter can only detect the passage of conductive liquids having conductivity greater
than or equal to 300 µS/cm (Ref. Table 3, Chap. 7).
- Do not subject the equipment to jets of water under pressure.
- Respect the required power supply voltage (12 Vdc).
- If arc welding is needed, make sure that the power supply to the flowmeter is discon-
nected; if necessary disconnect power cables.
- Use the flowmeter only within stated flowrate limits (Ref. Table 4, Chap. 7). Outside these
limits, the flowmeter may provide incorrect data, thus misleading the operator or the auto-
matic system.
ARAG cannot be held responsible for damage caused to persons, animals or things due to
incorrect or inadequate use of the flowmeter or its parts.

Displaying data

The following parameters can be displayed during operation:

Total liquid introduced into the tank

0 ÷ 9999 (EU: l - US: Gal) - "Mode 0"

0 ÷ 999,9 (EU: l - US: Gal) - "Mode 2"

Instantaneous rate

0 ÷ 999,9 (EU: l/min - US: Gpm)

After having been turned on, the display shows the amount of liquid to load into the tank; to modify it,
proceed as follows:
1) Press

RESET key until "FILL" screen appears.

2) Set the amount of liquid to load into the tank using

TOT key (increase) and RESET key (decrease); keep

the keys pressed to enable quick modification.
3) To confirm the setting, keep the keys pressed simultaneously until

"SAVE" screen appears.

4) The set amount of liquid to load into the tank is displayed preceded by

"TOT" screen.
