PCA186A provides a quick selection of various input/output options. The following pages illustrate connections and switch settings for various options. To make field wiring connections to the HRT1-4 option (NEMA 4X, front panel mounted on the outside of the clear cover), complete the following: Loosen the four cover screws.

Installation NOTE: When installing HRT1 unit directly on the turbine meter, follow the steps below to avoid twisting signal wires from pickup coil. Remove the HRT1 electronics from the enclosure. Disconnect the signal wires from the HRT1 electronics, if connected.
Installation 4-20 mA Current Loop The HRT1 is powered from a two-wire 4-20 mA current loop, in the voltage range of 8-30 Volts DC, depending on the loop resistance. One C-Size 3.6V Lithium or battery pack for Ex d system, is included as a backup power supply to ensure that volume accumulation will not be interrupted during a power failure.
HART Communications requires a loop resistance between 250 and 1100 Ohms. The HRT1 outputs a 4-20mA analog signal on the current loop that is proportional to the calculated flow rate. The 4mA and 20mA settings referred to as outLo and outHi respectively, may be configured from the front panel of the instrument or via HART communications.

Installation Pulse Output HRT1 Pulse Output can be configured for turbine raw frequency or for unit of measure scaled for the least significant digit of the displayed total. A scaling factor of 1, 10 or 100 is available to reduce or increase the resolution of the pulse output.
When installing HRT1, it is a good practice to use shielded cables for all input and output signals. The shield should be connected to the chassis ground lug on the HRT1. The shield on the opposite end of the cable should be left open.
Configuration 19 CONFIGURATION The HRT1 is fully configurable, with all parameters being stored in non-volatile memory. The instrument may be configured locally using the front panel keys or remotely via a HART communicator. Local Configuration The local configuration mode is entered by pressing the button.

Set maximum time in tenths of a second to sample the input frequency. This setting determines SAPLE the amount of time the HRT1 will wait for the next input pulse before returning to 0. For example, 80 = 8 seconds. Default is 1. Changing this setting is only recommended for low flow applications below 1 Hz.
Alarm2 Output Test Activates alarm2 output. Default Configuration HRT1 is fully configured by the factory prior to shipment. When the instrument is purchased with a Hoffer Flowmeter or when calibration and configuration data are supplied, the instrument is configured as specified.

When changing the battery, it is recommended to stop the flow at least two minutes prior to removing power from the unit to ensure that the stored Grand Total is current when restoring power (see section 5.2 Saving Grand Total). See Section 7 Maintenance for detailed instructions on battery replacement. HRT1 HP-313...
