You are responsible for determining if this mass flow meter is appropriate for your oxygen application.
  • Page 3 Warnings and Cautions  Warning! Agency approval for hazardous location installations varies between flow meter models. Consult the flow meter nameplate for specific flow meter approvals before any hazardous location installation. Warning! Hot tapping must be performed by a trained professional. U.S. regulations often require a hot tap permit. The manufacturer of the hot tap equipment and/or the contractor performing the hot tap is responsible for providing proof of such a permit.

    Display TC item in the Display Menu), then the register values will not agree exactly with the displayed values. Exception Status Definitions The Read Exception Status command (function code 07) returns the exception status byte, which is defined as follows. This byte may be cleared by setting “coil” register #00003 (function code 5, address 2, data = 0xff00). Bit(s) Definition Byte order (see Modbus Order on page 2)
  • Page 12: Command Message Format

    If the first byte of a message is not equal to the unit’s Modbus address, if the unit detects a parity error in any character in the received message (with even or odd parity enabled), or if the message CRC is incorrect, the unit will not respond.
