PANEL METER FOR INW PT12 SENSOR Introduction What is an INW Panel Meter for an INW PT12 Smart Sensor? This is a Modbus meter that is specially configured to read an INW PT12 Pressure/ ® Temperature Smart Sensor. By default, the meter displays pressure in PSI. The meter can also be set to display pressure in feet of water or meters of water or to display temperature in degrees Celsius.
PANEL METER FOR INW PT12 SENSOR Setup Connecting the Meter Connecting the Meter Sensor Connection The sensor is wired to the meter as shown in Figure 2. The meter supplies 12 VDC power to the sensor through a dropping resistor and voltage regulating zener diode.

PANEL METER FOR INW PT12 SENSOR Power Connection INW does not supply a power connection. It is up to the client and their engineers to wire the power connection. Meter manufacturer power specifications: AC: 85 - 265 VAC, 50/60 Hz, 15 Watts Recommended fuse: 1 A, 250V, slow-blow Wire: Copper with 60°...
PANEL METER FOR INW PT12 SENSOR Operation Your meter comes preconfigured to read your INW PT12 Pressure/Temperature sensor. Once the meter is powered and the sensor is connected, the meter should immediately begin displaying pressure readings. Meter Settings Though your meter comes preconfigured, there may be times when you want to change some of the settings.

PANEL METER FOR INW PT12 SENSOR Register Number The meter reads a particular register (memory) address on the sensor in order to display a reading. The PT12 has three registers - one for pressure, one for temperature, and one for voltage. The meter comes preconfigured to read pressure. If you want to read temperature, you must set the meter to read the correct register, as shown below.

PANEL METER FOR INW PT12 SENSOR Polling Interval The polling interval controls how often the meter queries the sensor for a new value. The meter comes preconfigured with a two second polling interval. You can change this interval as follows:...
If your PT12 is configured for something other than PSI and you want different units than what is displaying, contact INW for information on changing the units on the PT12. Units...

PANEL METER FOR INW PT12 SENSOR Temperature You cannot change display units for temperature. They will always display in degrees Celsius. However, if you are using other than PSI for pressure and you later want to read temperature, you must set the display units per the chart below. Failure to do this will result in erroneous temperature readings.
PANEL METER FOR INW PT12 SENSOR Appendix B - Meter Reset On occasion the meter can get into a state where you are unsure what it is doing. This can happen if a mistake is made while changing settings or if someone else has used the meter for some other purpose.
PANEL METER FOR INW PT12 SENSOR Complete Meter Configuration The meter is controlled via four buttons on the front of the meter face. Though your meter comes preconfigured, if it should ever need to be completely reset, follow the instructions below:...
