  • Page 3: Chapter 1 General Information

    CS Instruments is not liable for errors which may have slipped into this operating manual. The CS flow meter VA 452 works based on the thermal mass flow Area of principle and is to be used for measuring the mass flow of gases.
  • Page 4: Notes On Safety

    Observe permissible storage, transport and operating tempera- tures. • VA 452 for use in hazardous areas are labeled accordingly on the nameplate. Relevant national regulations must be ob- served when operating the device in hazardous areas. Ob- serve the installation regulations, connection data and safety instructions provided in the Ex documentation must be ob- served.

  • Page 7: Pipe Requirements

    Anything that disturbs the smoothness of the internal pipe wall (see figure below) should be eliminated; the goal should be a smooth uninterrupted internal surface. For further information please refer to ISO 14511. 3. Installation 1. Orientation Installation 0970 0042 VA 452 English, V1.9, 13.08.13...
  • Page 8 . Display orientation The display version of VA 452 can be rotated in both directions 270° . For this purpose the the nut at the top of the shaft has to be opened fully. Then pull up the metal casing and rotate it in the de- sired direction.

    Cable outer diameter should be between 6 and 8 mm • Single wire cross section area should be between 0.25 … 0.75 mm • The thread size for the cable glands is M20 / 1.5 Connection diagram 0970 0042 VA 452 English, V1.9, 13.08.13...
  • Page 11: Connecting Ds 300

    DS 300 has 2 inputs (I and G) for flow / dew point sensors. If there are more than 1 VA 452 to be connected to DS 300 a sepa- rate power supply has to be used for at least one of the VA 452, since DS 300 can only supply one VA 452 flow sensor.
  • Page 12: Connecting Analogue / Pulse Outputs

    Flow sensor VA 452 VA 452 in the standard configuration comes with 2 analogue outputs Connecting and 1 pulse output. All signals are electrically isolated. The analogue analogue / output can be used as an active output—current is sourced through pulse outputs the positive connection pin—or passive.

  • Page 15: Configuration

    Flow sensor VA 452 In order to fully utilize ethe functionality of VA 452 a configuration is Configuration required. There are various paramters which need to be set in the flow meter. The table below gives an overview about the available settings.
  • Page 16: Bluetooth

    Bluetooth provides a convenient way of configuring the sensor with- out the hazel of cable connections. VA 452 needs to be powered up. Ensure that the distance between VA 452 and PC is no more that 5 meter and the PC Bluetooth antenna should point roughly in the direction of the display (front part).
  • Page 17: Technical Data

    3377 Volumetric flow is stated at 1000 hPa and 20 ° C VA 452 can measure from zero flow onwards, the stated minimum flow is only required for achieving the specification. Flow rates above the maximum flow can not be measured.
