User manual D013-A Flowrate Monitor / Totalizer – 3 NSTALLATION NSTRUCTIONS Power wiring type PM Type PM is a galvanically isolated high power switching power supply, converting 115–230Vac mains (50/60Hz) to power the D013-A, the backlight (option) and provides up to 24V sensor supply to the field.
Page 20
User manual D013-A Flowrate Monitor / Totalizer 3 – I NSTALLATION NSTRUCTIONS I/O wiring options Flowmeter Input Wiring Options Type A The D013-A requires a 0(4)–20mA input signal which will be processed 4 times a second with a 14 bit accuracy. Sensors that are not externally/self powered can by powered by the sensor supply terminal, when the D013-A is equipped with power supply type PD.
User manual D013-A Flowrate Monitor / Totalizer – 3 NSTALLATION NSTRUCTIONS Alarm output wiring Active / Passive output, Type OH Type OH provides an active pull up output and a passive pull down output. The active pull up output is capable of sourcing 75mA depending on the power supply used. Note that for the AC supplied inputs the total output current is reduced by the used nominal D013-A current.
User manual D013-A Flowrate Monitor / Totalizer 3 – I NSTALLATION NSTRUCTIONS Relay Contact Output, Type OR Type OR provides a potential free output contact, capable of driving 2A @ 230V. When used for switching loads on another relay or solenoid valve coils the pilot duty rating is 0,5A @ 230Vac Note that (configured) output frequencies of 5Hz or higher reduce relay life time significantly.
Configuring the D013-A CHAPTER General The D013-A has three buttons and four modes of operation, one of which is “off”. The active modes are displayed by status indicators. Configuration of the D013-A is possible via the Setup and Program modes, which are indicated by PROGRAM SETUP Warning:...
