Attention! Before installing the sensor, it is essential to check whether in the transition range from pipe and • measuring pipe a burr, offset or seal extends into the free area. Possibly any protrusions in the pipe must be removed before mounting the sensor. It is always to ensure that the material enters the measuring tube continuously.
4.4 Mounting of the Evaluation unit The Evaluation unit can be installed at a maximum distance of 300 m from the sensor. A cable of type “Ölflex Classic 110 CY” is recommended. The cable should be four wired, twisted and shielded. A minimum cable cross-section of 0.75 mm²...

The edited data is transmitted to the Evaluation unit via “Device program”. Critical data concerning the ModBus communication and the calibration must be confirmed before the parameters are transmitted to the Evaluation unit: ✔ If, when saving the parameters in the Evaluation unit, the system calibration data is changed, this action must be confirmed by checking “Overwrite calibration”.
6.4 Menu structure The menu structure supports the user when adjusting the measuring range, the calibration, the measurement values and the choice of additional functions. In this connection, the numbering both on the display and in the PC interface is identical: 1.

Only according to instructions from personnel of ENVEA Process: If a detailed error analysis is necessary, a copy of all ModBus registers can be stored as a text file in the installation folder of the software by clicking on the sensor dump.
7.1 EasyFlow calibration The EasyFlow calibration calibrates the sensor to a known throughput. Every calibration point should be use at different mass flow, so the sensor can calculate a linearisation between this points. If there is no opportunity for two different calibration points, the system use a virtual zero point.
For the calibration of density and speed up to five calibration points can be set. Under 2.8.n Calibration point, the loading of the sensor in % is now specified and assigned to the appropriate raw value in 2.8.n Raw value. Subsequently, the same procedure is performed with the speed calibration.
A zero offset is in most cases a process problem, for example caking in the measuring tube. For processes with caking materials, there is the possibility of a cleaning flange. Please get in contact with ENVEA Process for more information.
8. Error signalling For monitoring the availability a wide range of functions for self-diagnostics were integrated, in order to signal various errors: 1. Fatal Error (ERR): Fatal Errors (ERR) always set the current output to the set alarm value. Technical problems or problems with the complete system are displayed on the touchscreen.
