The capacity to be able to correctly estimate dangers and risks when working with the flow computer ERZ2000-DI and all connected devices. Training / education by RMG for work with gas measuring devices. Education / instruction in all national standards and directives to be complied with for the work to be carried out on the flow computer ERZ2000-DI.
This manual describes the flow computer ERZ2000-DI. The ERZ2000-DI is only part of a complete system. The manuals of the other components of the system must be observed. If you find contradictory instructions, contact RMG and/or the manufacturers of the other components.
1 ABOUT THIS MANUAL 1.2.5.2 Dangers of operation in Ex areas Danger The flow computer ERZ2000-DI must be used exclusively in fault-free and complete, original condition. If you make technical changes to the device, safe operation can no longer be guaranteed. Ensure that the appropriate explosion protection is provided for the connection of all sensors or other devices that are used in explosion- prone areas!
Avoid extended periods of storage. After storage, inspect the device for damage and test for correct function. Contact the RMG service department to arrange for inspection of the device after a storage period of longer than one year. For this purpose, send the device to RMG.
1 ABOUT THIS MANUAL 1.3 Function The flow computer ERZ2000-DI is designed to operate various sensors, particu- larly flow rate and gas analysis sensors, evaluate their signals or adopt and deter- mine resulting operating and nominal volume flows. The resulting calculation varia- bles can be represented in a graph and checked via alarm output, etc.
1 ABOUT THIS MANUAL The ERZ2000-DI records analogue and digital values, such as frequencies, re- sistances, etc. Then these are assigned to physical variables, such as operating volume flow or temperature. Further processing of these values takes place in the ERZ2000-DI, where, for example, gas characteristics and standard volume flow are calculated from these basic values.
1 ABOUT THIS MANUAL 1.5 Areas of application The essential area of application is the recording and metering of flow rates for custody transfer in natural gas flow measurement technology. The device can be delivered in two different versions of the software, each with a separate approval as: Status flow computer for natural gas (ERZ2004-DI) Calorific value flow computer for natural gas (ERZ2104-DI)
Page 22
1 ABOUT THIS MANUAL Danger Only use the ERZ2000-DI in its original condition. When connecting sensors and other devices in explosion-prone areas, ensure that the appropriate explosion protection is provided for these components. The specified maximum values in the certificates issued for these components must be observed.
1 ABOUT THIS MANUAL 1.5.2 Seal diagram for devices with MID approval The ERZ2000-DI leaves the company with a setting agreed upon with the cus- tomer, which is protected from "significant" modifications by seals and metrological sealing, or it leaves the factory without seals. In the latter case, a calibration official must provide the device with seals according to the desired settings in accordance with the seal diagram.

2 INTRODUCTION 2.1.4 Operation on the home page The home page can be operated with a mouse and keyboard in the accustomed manner. Operations are equivalent to those on the touchscreen of the ERZ2000-DI and are adopted accordingly. For instance, the TCP/IP addresses can be queried here.
2 INTRODUCTION 2.2 Adjustment of the ERZ2000-DI via wizard Adjustment of the ERZ2000-DI preferably takes place using a wizard. For this pur- pose, it must be activated on the home page: Figure 13: Starting the wizard After activation of the "Start wizard" field circled in green, the settings tool of the ERZ2000-DI appears.
Page 35
2 INTRODUCTION The wizard is a component of the ERZ2000-DI and stored internally. This also ap- plies for all documents and images integrated in the wizard. They are not listed here again. The wizard and all integrated documents and images, therefore, are an es- sential part of the documentation.
Page 36
2 INTRODUCTION Caution Simplified adjustment with the wizard is basically only possible with an open calibration switch of the ERZ2000-DI. However, the notice on removal of seals (chapter 1.5.2 Seal diagram for devices with MID approval) must be observed! If the calibration switch is closed - for legal custody-transfer purposes - almost no settings are possible on the wizard screens.

Service / maintenance: The fuses in the devices must only be replaced when in a de-energized state. Repairs of the device must be carried out exclusively by RMG Messtechnik GmbH. Disassembly: When disassembling, it must be ensured that the sensor cable does not come into con- tact with other live parts.
Appendix E) Service functions Caution The removal of seals is necessary for this function. This normally entails considerable expenses! Therefore, this function reserved for the service department and a calibra- tion official and/or an officially recognized inspection authority. These par- ties must be present at the measuring station location.

Appendix First, an official custody transfer commissioning is initiated with "Execute" in order to re- set all parameters of WinCe to the default values (all parameters that are not under the calibration switch). If the ERZ2000-DI application is running, a restart of the kernel is carried out as an essential part of the process and the CRC (cyclic redundancy check) of the complete kernel is calculated and displayed in the matrix element "Kernel CRC IE21".
