1. INTRODUCTION The electronic transmitters CP420R and CH420R are DIN rail modules designed to work with Tecfluid’s volumetric counters (COVOL) and turbines. The instruments are supplied already configured for the type of input. The circuit is based on a microprocessor that, in function of the pulses per litre programmed, calculates the flow rate and totalizes the volume that flows through the meter and shows these values on a local indicator.

To change the flow rate units, the push button marked with the arrow pointing upwards, must be pushed. To change the totalized volume units, the push button marked with the arrow pointing left pointing upwards, must be pushed. The possible flow rate and totalized volume units are the following: Flow rate: There are 9 combinations made from 3 volume units and 3 time units.

2.3. Reset By pushing the RESET push button, the counter will be set to zero and it will continue to count. 3. MAINTENANCE It doesn’t require any special maintenance. 4. MEASUREMENT ERROR CORRECTIONS The calibration of the mechanical flow meters is made with water at 20 C to obtain a calibration for a liquid of density 1 kg/l and viscosity of 1 mPa·s.
