Page 6: Safety
3. Safety The PicoFlow was designed, built and tested for safety and is shipped in this condition. Components within the supplied system could be hazardous if not unpacked, installed, connected and commissioned by authorised qualified persons. All operating instructions must be read, and understood, before handling the system. Failure to do so will cause the warranty to be revoked. -

Page 21: One Or More Sensor Systems
6.4 One or more sensor systems Up to three sensors can be connected to a evaluation unit if, for example, a larger flow section needs to be illuminated. In the evaluation unit, the corresponding number of sensors will then be registered and a joint average value will be calculated from their measurements. - Page 22 With delivery of a multi-sensor system the sensors will be preconfigured on the addresses 1 – 2 – 3 and • noted in the evaluation unit as active. Sensors and evaluation units, which are not preconfigured for a multi-sensor system always have •...

Page 36: Start-Up Procedure
Start-up procedure Basic start-up Upon delivery, the sensor is not calibrated to the product to be measured and must be parameterised when started up. During the process, the mass flows measured by the sensor will be assigned to the display values and output quantities required by the user. -
Page 37: Adjusting The Measurement Values
For an evaluation of the recorded log file, it must be opened with Excel or a similar program. The content of each column of the log file is named in the first line. In order to determine the appropriate raw value for a calibration point, the mean value must be determined from the period of the reference extraction. -
Page 38: Error Signalling
8. Error signalling For monitoring the availability a wide range of functions for self-diagnostics were integrated, in order to signal various errors: 1. Fatal error (ERR): Fatal errors (ERR) always set the current output to the set alarm value. Technical problems or problems with the complete system are displayed on the touchscreen. -
