5. Operating Principles KOBOLD model DPM flow meters are used for measuring and monitoring liquids. Due to its compact construction the measuring instrument is suitable for use with machines with minimum available space. The system can be used in a wide variety of applications because the output pulses can be analysed in many different ways.
6. Mechanical Connection 6.1. Check service conditions: flow max. operating pressures max. service temperature Attention! Overrange can cause damage to bearings and major measuring errors 6.2. Installation flow in direction of arrow (universal) avoid pressure and tensile loads, mechanically fix inlet and outlet lines at distances of 50 mm from the connections ...
7. Electrical Connection 7.1. General Attention! Make sure that the voltages in your plant correspond with the flow meter voltages. Make sure that the electrical supply lines are dead. We recommend a power supply cable with cross sectional area of 0.25 mm². Attention! The instrument electronics may be damaged if the cable connections are wired incorrectly.
7.5. Cable outlet with M12x1 angle plug electronic options F3x and L3x When using a pre-assembled M12x1 connection cable with angled plug, the cable outlet is always aligned opposite to the flow direction. 7.6. Compact electronics: (..C30R, ..C30M, ..C34P, ..C34N) See supplement Operating Instructions for compact electronics with frequency output Seite 8...
8. Operating – Evaluation Electronics 8.1. Frequency output The measuring instruments are ready for operation after electrical connection. 8.2. Analogue output The measuring instruments are ready for operation after electrical connection. 8.3. Compact electronics The measuring instruments are factory programmed and ready for operation after electrical connection.
9. Maintenance The measuring instrument requires no maintenance if the measured medium is clean. To prevent coating the sensor optics, we recommend that a filter is installed, for example the magnetic filter, model MFR. If the sensor has to be cleaned, then it can be opened to gain access to the inside parts.
