    Considerations The installation of the B3000 flow monitor must comply with all applicable federal, state, and local rules, regulations, and codes EXPLOSION HAZARD - SUBSTITUTION OF COMPONENTS MAY IMPAIR SUITABILITY FOR CLASS I, DIVISION 2.
  • Page 4: Introduction

    The B3000 flow monitor incorporates state-of-the-art, digital signal processing technology, designed to provide exceptional flexibility at a very affordable price Though designed for use with Blancett flow sensors, this monitor can be used with almost any flow sensor producing a low amplitude AC output or contact closure signal...
  • Page 5: Installation

    The B3000 monitor has two jumpers for setting the type of signal and the minimum amplitude of the signal that it accepts First, establish the type of output provided by the flow sensor The outputs almost always fall into one of two types •...

  • Page 7: Power Connections

    Power Connections POWEO CONNECTIONS Standard The power supply used in the B30A/B/X/Z is an internal lithium 3 6V DC D cell that will power the monitor for about six years when no outputs are used The monitor can also get power from a 4…20 mA current loop (see Figure 9 Figure 10) If the...
  • Page 8: Solar

    A solar cell mounted on the top of the monitor in the B30S charges an internal 3 6V DC nickel-cadmium battery that powers the monitor A fully charged battery powers the monitor for approximately 30 days The solar powered B3000 has a single totalizing pulse output and cannot be powered by a 4…20 mA loop...

  • Page 13 Programming Enter a Scale Factor The scale factor is used to force a global span change For example, in Run mode the display is reading a consistent three percent below the expected values at all flow rates Rather than changing the K-factor and linearization parameters individually, the scale factor can be set to 1 03 to correct the readings The range of scale factors is from 0 10…5 00 The default scale factor is 1 00 At the Scale F prompt, press ENTEO The first digit of the existing scale factor flashes If the current selection is correct, press...

  • Page 18 Programming Hysteresis 1 The hysteresis parameter modifies how the output transistor reacts around a set point and prevents an output from turning on and off rapidly when the programmed flow rate is at, or very near, the set point For example, a low flow alarm is set to activate when the flow falls below a pre-programmed point When the flow is reduced to the set point, even small changes of flow above the set point turns the output off, disabling the alarm Without hysteresis, if the flow rate fluctuates slightly above and below the set point, the output rapidly cycles between on and off states See Figure 26...

  • Page 29: K-Factors Explained

    K-Factors Explained K-FACTOOS EXPLAINED The K-factor (with regard to flow) is the number of pulses that must be accumulated to equal a particular volume of fluid You can think of each pulse as representing a small fraction of the totalizing unit An example is a K-factor of 1000 (pulses per gallon) This means that if you were counting pulses, when the count total reached 1000, you would have accumulated one gallon of liquid Using the same reasoning, each individual pulse represents an accumulation of 1/1000 of a gallon This relationship is independent of the time it takes to accumulate the counts...
