Configuration of the unit
The F173-A was designed to be implemented in many types of applications. For that reason, a
SETUP-level is available to configure your F173-A according to your specific requirements.
SETUP includes several important features, such as Span, measurement units, signal settings etc.
All setting as are stored in EEPROM memory and will not get lost in case of power break-down or
empty battery.
To extend the battery-life time (option), please make use of the power-management functions as
described in chapter 3.2.3.
Display information
The unit has a large transflective LCD with all kinds of symbols and digits to display measuring units,
status information, trend-indication and key-word messages.
Options
Following options are available: isolated or active 4-20mA / 0-10V / 0-20mA analog output, full
Modbus communication RS232/485 (also battery powered), intrinsic safety, mechanic relays or
active outputs, power- and sensor-supply options, panel-mount, wall-mount and weather-proof
enclosures, flame proof enclosure.
Important
The number of alarm outputs is related to the configuration ordered:
Type PD: with 8-30V AC/DC power supply: three outputs (type OT or type OA)
Type PF: with 24 V AC/DC mains supply: three outputs (3x type OT, 3x type OA or
2x type OR + 1x type OT / type OA)
Type PM: with 80-230V mains supply: three outputs (3x type OT, 3x type OA or
2x type OR + 1x type OT / type OA)
Type PX: with type AP output loop powered: three outputs (type OT)
Type XI: Intrinsically safe: two outputs (type OT)
Type PD-XI: Intrinsically safe with 8-30V DC power supply: two outputs (type OT)
Type OS: relay board with 24V AC/DC mains supply: four relay outputs (type OR).
