502 010 05 1 General information. Introduction The PD 340 Flow Transmitter is a precision meter for the volumetric measurement of liq- uids that are electrically conducting. The rugged construction of the transmitter makes it suitable for installations where solid par- ticulates make up part of the liquid for measurement.
502 010 05 Construction The PD 340 Flow Transmitter consists of three parts: • Meterhead • Electronic module • Terminal box The electronic module and the terminal box are the same for all sizes of transmitter. The Meterhead consists of a stainless metering pipe with clamp connections. Two magnet coils are mounted external to the metering pipe.

(see details in the next section, Reducing the influence of varying flow profiles). Practical tests with the PD 340 confirm that it is not necessary to recalibrate the meter when changing product, such as from water to milk. This would normally be necessary when using magnetic flowmeters that have traditional round measuring chambers.
Measures over The average measurement is achieved in a PD 340 by using a the entire cross square measurement chamber, where each of the two electrodes are section of the designed to measure across the complete cross section of flow.
During the flow calibration at the factory, the linearizing curve is calculated and downloaded to the electronic module. For this reason, all new PD 340 Flow Transmitters will hold the data needed by the linearizing function, when they are delivered as complete meters, i.e.
The required volume is keyed into a setpoint regis- ter. A digital input on the Flow Transmitter may be used to start the batch control. A digital output, Output2, opens the dosing valve or starts a pump. When the setpoint volume is Manual Flow Transmitter, PD 340 11/55...
Error free measurement signal. The output signal is ON if no error is present. • The output may be controlled directly via P-NET. (See configuration of function selector Code2) Further details for connecting Output2 can be found in section 5.3.1 Output2. 12/55 Flow Transmitter, PD 340 Manual...
Fur- thermore the PD 210 display unit may be used to change setpoint values and to perform a complete configuration of the Flow Transmitter (see description in section 3). Manual Flow Transmitter, PD 340 13/55...
502 010 05 3 Display Various options are available for displaying information from the PD 340 Flow Transmitter. The Flow Transmitter may be controlled and supervised via the P-NET interface (requires the extended version), and all data may then be accessed. Another solution is to connect a local PD 210 display unit to the Flow Transmitter.

Flowmeter-Display, PD 4000/340 The Flowmeter-Display is based on a PD 4000 P-NET Controller and is designed to display data from PD 340 Flow Transmitters. Furthermore it is possible to change data and to select various functions in the Flow Transmitters.
This applies to any flow transmitter on the market. How- ever, it is possible to use the PD 340 even at very low flow rates, whilst still obtaining high accuracy. Flow measurement down to 1 % of maximum flow rate for the Flow Transmitter is...

The Flow Transmitter supply should always be connected, as heat developed in the elec- tronic module prevents any condensation, which could damage the transmitter. The transmit- ter should therefore be powered up as soon as possible after mounting. Manual Flow Transmitter, PD 340 19/55...
The output is protected with a zener diode and a current-limiting resistor in the same way as the pulse outputs. Furthermore, the output is isolated from the internal elec- tronics by a transformer. The output is not isolated from the power source supplying the transmitter. 20/55 Flow Transmitter, PD 340 Manual...

P-NET is standardised internationally (IEC 61158 Type 4). Up to 125 units can be connected to the fieldbus, where a device may be a PD 340 Flow Transmitter, a Flowmeter Display or another P-NET interface module. The P-NET interface is galvanically isolated. The fieldbus cable is a twisted pair cable with shield, and the shield is used as a potential equalizer be- tween the driver/receiver circuits in the nodes connected to the fieldbus.

502 010 05 7 3-phase output signals The PD 340 Flow Transmitter - extended version, can be configured to drive 3-phased out- put signals. The configuration makes the Flow Transmitter act like a mechanical flowmeter. The 3-phase output signals may be used in three different modes. Below is a brief overview prior to more comprehensive explanations later in this section: •...

PD 210 551 114 01 A centrifugal pump, a PD 340 Flow Transmitter, and a modulating valve with an I/P con- verter can form an accurate FLOW CONTROL SYSTEM. Such a system is more accurate, and also normally less expensive than systems using a positive pump with variable speed.

The min. and max. flow rate, the flow/pressure curves of the pump, and the pressure drop in the pipe work at the specified flow rate. It is normally recom- mended to ask the supplier of the modulating valve to select the size. Manual Flow Transmitter, PD 340 43/55...
The requested volume is keyed into "SETPOINT" on the PD 210. Input1 on the PD 340 is used to start the batch control. Output2 controls the dosing valve or pump. The Volume2 counter shows the dosed volume.

12.1 Memory types The PD 340 stores data in different types of memory depending on the value of a control variable following a reset or a power failure, and the state of the write protection. Some variables are stored in both non-volatile memory and in volatile memory. The state of the module's Program enable switch determines whether the contents are changed in both types of memory or only in the volatile type.
