Data Industrial® Series 3050 Btu Monitor Series 3050 IMPORTANT: This manual contains important information. READ AND KEEP FOR REFERENCE. Installation & Operation Manual 941700-0030 (6-11)
A claim for equipment damage in transit is the sole responsibility of the purchaser. Product Description The Badger Meter Data Industrial Series 3050 Btu Monitor is an economical, full-featured compact unit designed for sub-metering applications. The two line x 16-character alphanumeric displays any combination of Energy Rate, Energy Total, Flow Rate or Flow Total.

Series 3050 Btu Monitor Series 3050 Btu Monitor Programming The user can program the flow sensor from the front panel by entering a "K" and offset or only a "K" factor, depending on the flow sensor used. Programming is menu driven. All data is entered using the LCD/keypad interface. A password gate is included to prevent unauthorized access to programming parameters.
Installation & Operation Manual INSTALLATION Mechanical Installation The Series 3050 Btu Monitor can be either panel mounted or wall mounted. Location In any mounting arrangement the primary concern is easy viewing and convenient operation of the keypad. The unit generates very little heat, so no consideration need be given to cooling or ventilation. However, prolonged direct sunlight can damage the front panel so some level of shading is recommended, especially if installed in a tropical climate.
Series 3050 terminal marked (ACC/DC-). If a Badger Meter Data Industrial plug-in power supply (Model A1026, A-503) is being used, connect the black-white wire to the terminal marked (ACL/DC+) and the black wire to the terminal marked (ACC/DC-).

The following pulse input types are accommodated. • Pulse-DI: Used for all Badger Meter Data Industrial Flow Sensors. Provides an internal pull-up resistor and uses “K” and “Offset” values for calibration. • Pulse–K Factor: Accepts non zero-crossing inputs but provides no internal pull-up, classical “K” ( pulses/gallon) values for calibration.

Series 3050 Btu Monitor Analog Input As an alternative to the pulse inputs, the Series 3050 can accept an Analog input. The input is non-isolated, but can accept 0-1VDC, 0-5VDC, 0-10VDC, 0-20mA and 4-20mA with both factory-defined and custom units of measure. Low impedance 100 Ohm input for current inputs optimizes performance and flexibility or loop power supplies.

Installation & Operation Manual Temperature Input The Series 3050 Btu Monitor can accept inputs from either a pair of thermistors or RTDs. The inputs are labeled T1 and T2. Since the T1 sensor is used to convert the volumetric flow (Example: GPM) to the mass flow ( Example: Lbs/Hr) used in the Btu calculations, the sensor connected to T1 should be in the same supply or return line as the Flow Sensor.

Series 3050 Btu Monitor Solid State Switch and Form “C” Output Wiring The Series 3050 Btu Monitor has one Normally Open (N.O.) solid state switch, and one solid state form “C” relay. Check the Specifications on page 29 for maximum voltage and current ratings for each type output. These outputs are completely independent, electrically isolated, and can be programmed as either Pulse or Set Point outputs.

Series 3050 Btu Monitor OUTPUT OPTION CARD If the Series 3050 Btu Monitor was ordered with the Output Option card, it will have several additional outputs. 1. Analog Output ( 0-20mA; or 4-20mA ) which can be converted externally to 0-5VDC, 1-5VDC with a 250 Ohm resistor; or 0-10VDC or 2-10VDC with a500 Ohm resistor.

Two of the keys( Menu and Enter) serve a single function while the three remaining keys () serve dual purposes. When the Series 3050 is first powered up, it runs through internal self checks while displaying “Badger Meter DIC Initializing." At the end of this cycle its normal mode display will appear.
Installation & Operation Manual PROGRAMMING With the normal mode display showing, pressing the Menu key will enter the programming mode. In this mode, the three arrow keys () are used on the selection screens to select the option displayed above the key, and on the option list screens to scroll up or down a list of choices, like a pull-down menu.
Series 3050 Btu Monitor USB Communication If the Data Industrial Series 3050 Btu Monitor is ordered with an Analog Output Option card, a five-pin USB connector is also included. As much as possible the commands mimic the use of the Front Panel controls. To use this feature the following are required.
