3.2 Functionalities of flowmeter and default settings

3.2.1 Language

The language of the display can be changed. Available languages are English,
Spanish, French and German.

3.2.2 Dosing

The Flowmax 44i can be configured for manually dosing by choosing the dosing
function via the user display. The Volume "Dosing Quantity" and the "Dosing
Time" are freely adjustable. The dosing time is intended as a safeguard against
unintentional overspill. When "Dosing Time" is set to zero, the timer control is
inactive. A dosage can be started and stopped with the menu function keys
"Start" and "Stop".
Setting range "Dosing Quantity":
Default setting "Dosing Quantity":
Setting range "Dosing Time"
Default setting "Dosing Time":
Important!
If Dosing Time =0 the time switch-off is inactive.
Example:
Dosing time = 3 seconds. That is Flowmax is sending the closing signal after
2.1 to 3.0 sec to the valve. The dosing time is designed as a security feature.
An exact dosage purely on the dosing time is not useful.
Warning!
The customer has to provide a technical solution for overfill protection
and an emergency stop switch. Both functions must run for safety to
valve closure.

3.2.3 Media

Set Offset
In the sub menu "Set Offset" it is possible to set the actual offset of the
flowmeter. Use this function only when Flowmax 44i is completely filled with
liquid, and there is no flow. If the offset is set while flow is present or when the
pipe is empty it will cause an offset drift what results in a faulty measurement.
Example of operation see appendix.
A small offset change, e.g. caused by variable temperatures, is automatically
done by the flowmeter. It is also possible to set the offset via the configurable
digital inputs.
