  • Page 5: General Information

    301/303/305/306/307 Flowmeters and Controllers Instruction Manual 1. General Information The Hastings 300 series high range mass flow meters and controllers are designed to accurately measure and control mass flow at ranges between 25 slm and 10,000 slm with an accuracy of better than ±1% Full Scale (HFM-306 is 2% FS).

  • Page 6: Features

    301/303/305/306/307 Flowmeters and Controllers Instruction Manual Features LINEAR BY DESIGN. The HFM-301/305/306 and HFC-303/307 series are intrinsically linear (no linearization circuitry is employed). Should field recalibration (a calibration standard is required) be desired, the customer needs to simply set the zero and span points. There will be no appreciable linearity change of the instrument when the flowing gas is changed.

  • Page 9: Optional 4-20 Ma Current Output

    301/303/305/306/307 Flowmeters and Controllers Instruction Manual Optional 4-20 mA Current Output An option to the standard 0-5 VDC output is the 4-20 mA current output that is proportional to flow. The 4-20 mA signal is produced from the 0-5 VDC output of the flow meter. The current loop output is useful for remote applications where pickup noise could substantially affect the stability of the voltage output or long cable runs where cable resistance would cause a voltage signal to decay.

    For knowledge of the most up-to-date Hastings power supplies, please consult either Hastings sales staff or our website at http://www.teledyne-hi.com WARNING: To prevent the spread of fires in the event of a fault, only use power supplies power limited to no more than 150 VA.

  • Page 11: Installation And Setup

    7. Instrument is ready for operation Power Requirements At their maximum power draws, the HFM-301/305/306/307 meters require ±15 VDC @ 70 mA, and the HFC- 303/307 controllers require ±15 VDC @ 185 mA (See specifications in sections 1.2). The HFM-300/HFC-302 Series supply voltages should be reasonably regulated as power supply ripple may propagate to the output (less than 50 mV ripple is preferred).

    301/303/305/306/307 Flowmeters and Controllers Instruction Manual Operation The standard instrument output signal is 0 - 5 VDC and is proportional to the flow (0 volts = zero flow, 5 Volts = 100% flow). The 4 - 20 mA option is also proportional to flow (4 mA = zero flow and 20 mA = 100% flow). 2.6.1.

  • Page 17 301/303/305/306/307 Flowmeters and Controllers Instruction Manual If the system pressure is higher than 250 psig (1.7 MPa) the pressure induced error in the span reading becomes significant. This error will approach 16% for nitrogen at 1000 psig. For accurate high-pressure measurements this error must be corrected.

  • Page 18: Vertical Mounting

    301/303/305/306/307 Flowmeters and Controllers Instruction Manual 2.6.4. Vertical Mounting It is not recommended to mount the instrument vertically if high pressure or high density gas is being measured. If the instrument is not mounted in a level position and is operating at high pressure or with high density gases, the increased gas density will cause convection to flow through the sensor tube.

    301/303/305/306/307 Flowmeters and Controllers Instruction Manual SOLUTION: Use the formulas above: ( 0.05 )( 100 )( 5 ) �������� ���������� = 5% = 0.05, ���������� ������������ = = 0.5 ( 10 )( 5 ) Scale the output of controller A by 0.5 (half) and route the signal to the setpoint of controller B to flow 5% of controller A.

  • Page 20: Controlling Other Process Variables (External Input)

    301/303/305/306/307 Flowmeters and Controllers Instruction Manual Controlling Other Process Variables (External Input) Flow controllers usually control mass flow. The control loop opens and closes the valve to make the output flow signal match the command signal. Occasionally, gas is added or removed from a system to control some other process variable.

  • Page 21: Gain Potentiometer

    301/303/305/306/307 Flowmeters and Controllers Instruction Manual Gain Potentiometer On the top left of inlet side of the flow controller there is a hole through which the gain potentiometer is accessible (See right). This gain potentiometer affects the gain of the closed loop controller. Normally this potentiometer will be set at the factory for good stable control.

    301/303/305/306/307 Flowmeters and Controllers Instruction Manual 3. Maintenance This section contains service and calibration information. Some portions of the instrument are delicate, so please use extreme care when servicing the flow controller. NOTICE: It may prove more prudent in the long run to delegate the maintenance of Hastings flow instruments to Hastings personnel who have the appropriate equipment and training.
  • Page 23 301/303/305/306/307 Flowmeters and Controllers Instruction Manual Symptom: Output of flow meter is proportional to flow, but extremely small and not correctable by span pot. Cause: Sensor is not being heated. Action: Shut off gas supply and disconnect the power to the flow meter.

  • Page 24: Adjustments (Calibration Procedure)

    Disconnect the fittings on the inlet and outlet sides of the transducer and remove it from the system plumbing. On the HFM-301/305 and HFC-303/307, Remove the four screws holding the end cap to the instrument. Carefully remove the end cap, spring, and shunt, noting their order and proper orientation.

  • Page 25: Printed Circuit Board Replacement

    Remove the fasteners and steel can. The 4-20 mA board is the PC board marked PC854 in the lower left-hand corner just above the Teledyne logo. Remove the screws and lift off the 4-20 mA board. Be careful not to damage the main board and 4-20 mA board connectors.
