  • Page 6: Introduction

    Page 6 1 INTRODUCTION SYSTEM DESCRIPTION Functions and features The flow rate / totalizer model F113-P-OS is a microprocessor driven instrument designed to show the flow rate, the total and the accumulated total. It can generate a scaled pulse according to the total and an analog output according to the flow, and generate high and low flow alarms.
  • Page 7 Page 7 Configuration of the unit The F113-P-OS is designed for use in many types of applications. For that reason, a setup menu is available to program the F113-P-OS according to your specific requirements. The setup includes several important features, such as K-Factors, engineering units, signal selection, power management etc.

    Page 14 3.3.3 MENU 2 - FLOW RATE The settings for total and flow rate are entirely separate. In this way, different engineering units can be used for each e.g. cubic meters for total and liters for flow rate. FLOW RATE UNIT This setting is used to select the engineering unit for the indication of the flow rate.
  • Page 15: Menu 4 - Display

    Page 15 3.3.5 MENU 4 - DISPLAY DISPLAY FUNCTION This setting can be set to display total or rate. • When 'total' is selected, total is shown with the large digits together with flow rate with the smaller digits. When SELECT is pressed, the accumulated total is shown temporarily.
  • Page 16: Menu 6 - Flowmeter

    Page 16 3.3.7 MENU 6 - FLOWMETER FLOWMETER SIGNAL With this setting the type of flowmeter output is selected. The settings with LP (low-pass) filter are used to apply a build-in noise reduction. Selections "active pulse" offer a detection level of 50% of the supply voltage.
  • Page 17 Page 17 CUT-OFF A low flow cut-off, e.g. to ignore leakage, can be set as a percentage of the full range of 16 mA, 20 mA or 10 V. When the flow is less than the required rate, the current will be the minimum signal (4 mA).
  • Page 18: Menu 8 - Relays

    Page 18 3.3.9 MENU 8 - RELAYS The outputs are configurable, they can be set to a specific alarm output, a scaled pulse output according accumulated total or to off (energy saving when not used). RELAYS RELAY 1 This setting is used to set the function of related output R1. Mind that when set to pulse, the output has a maximum frequency of 5Hz to prevent contact bounce.

  • Page 25: Electrical Installation

    Page 25 ELECTRICAL INSTALLATION • Electro static discharge does inflict irreparable damage to electronics! Before installing or opening the F113-P-OS, the installer has to discharge himself by touching a well- grounded object. • For reasons of ESD and safety, always ground the metal enclosure properly as indicated. It is the responsibility of the installer to install, connect and test the Protective Earth connections in accordance with the (inter)national Rules and Regulations.
  • Page 26: Field Wiring Connections

    Inside of the Fluidwell unit, the various common ground terminals are connected to each other. It is advised to terminate the wire screens in the vicinity of the sensor and to insulate the wire screen with a shrink tube at the F113-P-OS side.

    Page 28 TERMINAL CONNECTORS SAFE AREA APPLICATIONS – TYPE XX / XF Take careful notice of all safety and precautionary measures indicated in paragraph 4.5: Electrical Installation and review paragraph 4.5.3 and 4.5.4 before applying any field or power supply wiring. Following terminal connectors are available on the F113-P-OS when supplied with Type XX: Fig.
  • Page 29 Page 29 Fig. 13: Terminal connections - Coil signal input (typical) Pulse-signal NPN / NPN-LP The F113-P-OS 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 chapter 3).
  • Page 30 Page 30 Active signal 8.2V, 12V and 24V If a sensor gives an active signal (read chapter 3).The detection levels are 50% of the selected supply voltage; approx. 4V (8.1 DC) or 6V (12 DC) or 12V (24 DC). Active signal selection may well be desired in case of power supply type PD is available for sensor supply.
