  • Page 3: Introduction

    This flow monitor is capable of accepting a low-level frequency input for calculating flow rate and total. These calculations can then be displayed in the desired units of measurement. All B2800 flow monitors come pre-calibrated, from the factory, if ordered with a Blancett Flow Meter.

    SPECIFICATIONS Power Supply Options: Battery Powered: 1 “D” size 1.5 Volt alkaline battery Loop Powered: Optional 4-20 mA loop power Alphanumeric Rate and Total Display: 8 digit, .75” high numeric display 8 character, .38” high alphanumeric display Fixed or toggle modes of operation for flow rate and totalizer display Accuracy: ±0.1% Temperature Drift = 50ppm/°C (Max)
  • Page 5: Operating The Monitor

    RUN – Normal operating mode PROGRAM – Used to program variables into the display If your monitor was ordered with a Blancett flow meter, the two components ship from the factory, calibrated as a set. If the moni- tor is a replacement, the turbine’s K-factor has changed, or the monitor is being used with some other pulse generating device, programming will be necessary.
  • Page 6: Programming

    Programming Using Pulse Output Turbine Flow Meters Each turbine flow meter is shipped with either a K-factor value or frequency data. If frequency data is provided, the data must be converted to a K-factor before programming the monitor. K- factor information, when supplied, can usually be found on the neck of the flow meter or stamped on the body.
  • Page 7 M3 (pulses per cubic meter), etc. Press ENTER to save the K- factor unit and advance to the next parameter. Note: Unless otherwise specified, Blancett turbine flow meters are supplied with K-factors measured in pulses per gallon (PUL/GAL) which will automatically convert to your desired units of measure.

    store the password and take you back to the RST PSWD screen. Note: This password will allow the operator to manually reset totals. RST PSWD – The reset password screen allows the operator to enter any 4 digit code for the manual reset totals function. Note: This reset password code will not allow the opera- tor to enter the programming mode.
  • Page 10: Additional Input Options

    ADDITIONAL INPUT OPTIONS The B2800 Flow Monitor is capable of receiving Magnetic Pick- up input (small signal sine wave) or a Contact Closure input (pulse). Since most Blancett Turbine Flow Meters utilize a mag- netic pick-up, the B2800 flow monitor is shipped configured for magnetic pick-up input.
