    4.4.1. GENERAL INSTALLATION GUIDELINES • The F112-P that came with a power module type PM; 110V-230V AC or type PD/PF with an option OR (the relays can handle 110V-230V AC) shall be connected to the Protective Earth (PE) stud which is installed in the metal back panel. The metal front panel is connected to the Protective Earth by the mounting screws and serrated washers.

  • Page 22: Protective Earth (Pe) Connections

    Metal enclosure When the F112-P is supplied with a metal enclosure (aluminum or stainless steel), the enclosure must be grounded in accordance with national and local electrical codes. To ground the field mounted unit, the PE conductor must be connected to the PE stud which is located in the metal back cover, as indicated in the image below.

  • Page 23: Aluminum Enclosure - Field Mounted

    Do not use the terminal 00 to connect the protective earth wire, the 00 and the common ground terminals are internally connected. Be careful, to prevent damage to equipment when you connect different power supplies (sensor, PLC, etc.). Inside the Fluidwell display, the common grounds are internally connected to each other.

  • Page 29 Fig. 18: Terminal connections - Coil signal input (typical) Pulse-signal NPN / NPN-LP: The F112-P is suitable for use with flowmeters which have a NPN output signal. For reliable pulse detection, the pulse amplitude has to go below 1.2V. Signal setting NPN-LP employs a low-pass signal noise filter, which limits the maximum input frequency (read chapter 3).
  • Page 30 Pulse-signal PNP / PNP-LP: The F112-P is suitable for use with flowmeters which have a PNP output signal. 3V is offered on terminal 11 which has to be switched by the sensor to terminal 10 (SIGNAL). For a reliable pulse detection, the pulse amplitude has to go above 1.2V.
  • Page 31 Page 31 NAMUR-signal: The F112-P is suitable for flowmeters with an Namur signal. The standard F112-P is not able to power the Namur sensor, as an external power supply for the sensor is required. However, a 8.2V sensor supply voltage (terminal 11) can be provided with power supply type PD, PF, PM.
