Relay Contacts; Totalizer - Siemens SITRANS LUT400 Operating Instructions Manual

7.10.1

Relay contacts

Pumped volume is calculated at the end of the pump cycle. Totalized volume when External
Totalizer (2.11.3) (Page 215) function is enabled will be given in bursts at the end of the
pump cycle, not throughout the pump cycle.
Use Relay Duration (2.11.3.3.) (Page 216) to set the time in seconds from one change of
state in the relay to the next. This parameter sets both the open and closed times for the
relay contact and is preset to 0.2 seconds. Partial units are added to the next pump cycle.
Example:

Totalizer

Use the External Totalizer (2.11.3) (Page 215) function to set the totalizer to provide relay
contact to an external counter.

Example: To click once every 4310 units, set Multiplier (2.11.3.2.) (Page 215) to 4310.
The totalizer source, and units depend on the volume configuration:

Multiplier (2.11.3.2.) (Page 215) is preset to 1 so
the default number of contacts is one contact per
unit of volume.
