  • Page 6: Description

    Flow Meter | FC100-CA DESCRIPTION 1 Description Flow Meter FC100-CA is suitable for compressed-air and other gas flow measurements under various pressure conditions. It operates on the calorimetric principle and is to be used together with monitoring heads CSx-... These quantities are made available to the user as analogue electrical signals, physically isolated, as current or voltage output and may be monitored by means of a limit monitor.
  • Page 7: Physical Principles Of Gas Measurement

    FC100-CA | Flow Meter DESCRIPTION Major benefits of this method are: • Fast response, particularly in the event of a sudden complete flow stoppage. • Medium temperature measurement, providing optimal temperature compensation. • Increased safety because the sensor cannot be overheated during flow standstill. The flow velocity is determined by mass flow.
  • Page 8: Measurements In Compressed-Air Systems

    Flow Meter | FC100-CA DESCRIPTION 1 . 1 .4 Measurements in compressed-air systems The easy-to-fit modular insertion system allows the FC100-CA with insertion head CSP-… to be inserted in 6 different sensor adapters for diameters 1/2“, 3/4“, 1“, 1 1/4“, 1 1/2“ and 2“. This enables to systematically monitor the entire compressed-air system for leakages by providing the appropriate number of sensor adapters and only a few measuring systems.

  • Page 10: User Interfaces

    Flow Meter | FC100-CA DESCRIPTION The analogue outputs and the signal outputs are galvanically isolatated from the other electronics . The two analogue output channels are not galvanically isolated from each other. There is no electrical isolation between power supply, controller system, sensor interface, monitoring head and RS232 interface.
  • Page 11 FC100-CA | Flow Meter DESCRIPTION Power supply: DC 10 … 40 V Internal switched mode power supply without galvanic isolation of the primary and secondary side. The secondary side is short-circuit proof. There is a fuse on the primary side which can only be replaced by FlowVision. Noise emission is limited by appropriate circuit design and filters .
