  • Page 5: System Description

    Fig. 1: typical application Configuration of the unit The F118-P is designed for use in many types of applications. For that reason, a setup menu is available to program the F118-P according to your specific requirements. The setup includes several important features, such as K-Factors, engineering units, signal selection, power management (to extend battery life-time), etc.

  • Page 6: Control Panel

    • Take careful notice of the "Safety rules, instructions and precautionary measures" in the front of this manual. This chapter describes the daily use of the F118-P. This instruction is meant for users / operators. 2.1. CONTROL PANEL The control panel has three keys. The available keys are: Fig.
  • Page 7 ▪ How to program the alarm thresholds The F118-P can give an alarm message on the display. When set to on, at the same time, the digital outputs can give a signal for processing by an external device. Note that it is also possible to set or change the alarm thresholds from the setup menu.
  • Page 8 How to enter the setup menu When the setup menu is protected by a password, the F118-P asks for a password to access the setup menu. When in the operator mode, press and hold the PROG/ENTER key for 7 seconds to access the setup menu.
  • Page 9 The SELECT/ key and the CLEAR/ key are used for navigation. The explanation assumes that you are in the submenu TOTAL. When you are: • in the first setting and you navigate to the previous setting, the F118-P goes back to the related main menu.

When you change the engineering unit, you must recalculate and reprogram the K-factor for the (accumulated) total.
  • Page 12 3.1.4. EXPLANATION OF SETUP MENU 3 - ALARM These settings determine how the flow rate is monitored and how the F118-P will process the alarm conditions. For the setup of the configurable outputs, refer to setup menu: Relays. When the flow rate is zero, then it is possible to ignore or disable the flow rate FLOWZERO monitoring.

  • Page 13: Battery Mode

    When used with the internal battery option (type PB/PC), the user can expect reliable measurement over a long period of time. The F118-P has several smart power management functions to extend the battery life time significantly. Two of these functions can be set.
  • Page 14 Page 14 FREQUENCY / The frequency is shown at the bottom line of the display. The maximum M-FACTOR frequency is 9999.9 Hz. With value 0.0Hz, the M-Factor is disabled. The M- 71 TO 7A Factor (MF) is shown at the top-line of the display. The minimum value to be entered is 0.000001 and the maximum value is 9.999999.
  • Page 15 Page 15 TUNE-MIN The (0)4mA or 0V value can be tuned precisely with this setting. The initial minimum analog output value is (0)4mA or 0V. However, this value might differ slightly due to ambient influences such as temperature for example. Before tuning the signal, make sure that the analog signal is idle (not used) for any application! After pressing PROG, the current will be about 4mA (0mA or 0V).

    4.4.1. GENERAL INSTALLATION GUIDELINES • The F118-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 21: Protective Earth (Pe) Connections

    Metal enclosure When the F118-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 22 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 28 Fig. 18: Terminal connections - Coil signal input (typical) Pulse-signal NPN / NPN-LP: The F118-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 par.
  • Page 29 Pulse-signal PNP / PNP-LP: The F118-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 30 Page 30 NAMUR-signal: The F118-P is suitable for flowmeters with an Namur signal. The standard F118-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 via types PD-PM.
