• Pay attention to the design of the inlet and outlet section. Obstructions can cause counter-flow turbulence as well as turbulence in the direction of the flow. • It is strongly recommended not to install S453 permanently in wet environment which exists usually right after a compressor outlet.

The S453 with tube diameters of DN25 already has the required inlet and outlet sections. No additional straight sections are needed. For the S453 with diameters from DN32 to DN80, the S453 has a shortened inlet section and requires additional straight sections at the inlet and outlet.
The S453 is shipped with the mounted measurement section. When installing the device, please make sure the following: • The flow direction indicated on the S453 housing is consistent with the flow direction of the compressed air or gas. • The gas flows from the inlet (long pipe section) to the outlet (short pipe section) as illustrated in the picture below.
9 Installation Note: The S453 can be installed in any orientation (horizontal, vertical, side and upside-down). Please consider the needed straight inlet and outlet sections described in section 8.1 Additional Inlet and Outlet Sections . 9.2 Remove the S453 ATTENTION! Only remove the flow meter if the system is in a pressure-less condition.
• Single wire cross section area must be between 0.25 ... 0.75 mm • The thread size for the cable glands is M20 / 1.5. 9.4.1 Connection diagram Remove the back cover from the S453, and the pin layout is shown as below. S453...

Pulse output The maximum number of pulse per second is limited to 49. In case that the flow rate is too high, the S453 cannot output the pulses with default settings (one pulse per consumption unit). In this case, you can set the pulse to 1 pulse per 10 consumption units or 1 pulse per 100 consumption units, using the S4C-FS service app.
10.2 Modbus Interface The Modbus communication requires to activate terminal resistors at the last device on the bus system. If the S453 is the last device on the bus system, the DIP switches on the connector board should be set to “ON”...
