Summary of Contents for FILL-RITE 900CDP Pulser

  • Page 1 900CDP Pulser Troubleshooting...
  • Page 2 Agenda •  General items to check before trying to determine if there is something defective in the FMS, IS barrier, meter, or wiring. –  DIP Switch Settings in FMS –  Voltage from FMS –  Voltages on IS Barrier •  Specific Troubleshooting steps for the: – ...
  • Page 3 DIP Switch Settings in FMS •  If there are DIP switches in the FMS that set the pulser type as active or passive, set the switches for passive. –  Active pulsers supply a voltage to the FMS. –  Passive pulsers switch the voltage that is provided by the FMS. • ...
  • Page 4 Voltage from FMS •  The FMS must provide a voltage to the 900CDP IS barrier. The barrier simply acts as a contact closure type pulser. •  The barrier can handle 5 to 170 VAC or VDC. The FMS typically provides around 12 VDC. • ...
  • Page 5 Voltage from FMS •  If there is no voltage available, double check your DIP switch settings. •  Some FMS units do not provide the voltage. In this case, you will need to use a pull-up resistor to supply the voltage as shown in this FuelMaster pulser wiring diagram.
  • Page 6 Voltage from FMS •  The voltage from the FMS is connected to J4 on the IS barrier as shown below. J4 Connections •  Be sure that the pulser common and the voltage wires are connected to the IS barrier as shown. If they are reversed, there will be no pulse.
  • Page 7 Voltages on IS Barrier •  The IS barrier can be powered by either AC or DC power. –  AC power is connected to terminal J3 as shown on the barrier. While the max voltage is 240 VAC, the barrier must have a neutral wire connected.
  • Page 8 Voltages on IS Barrier •  Voltages on terminal J1 (output to the 900CDP) should be as shown in the table below. S       -­‐       +   J1 Connections Voltage Measured Between Barrier (+) and (-) (S) and (-)

    Troubleshooting •  Place the FMS in manual mode and leave it in manual mode until you have determined which component or wiring is creating the issue.
  • Page 10 Step   1   Troubleshooting - FMS •  To check the FMS hardware, disconnect the FMS to barrier wires inside the FMS. Be sure you note where the wires were connected! •  Take a short wire and strip both ends. Connect one end to the Pulser Common terminal in the FMS.
  • Page 11 Step   2   Troubleshooting – FMS to Barrier Wiring •  To check the FMS to barrier wiring, disconnect the wires at terminal J4 on the barrier, again taking note of which wire was on which connector. •  Manually tap the ends of the two wires together. • ...
  • Page 12 Step   Troubleshooting – IS Barrier 3   •  To check the barrier, disconnect the barrier to meter wiring at terminal J1 on the barrier. Note where the wires are terminated on •  Using the short wire with the ends stripped, secure one end to the (-) connection on terminal J1.
  • Page 13 Step   4   Troubleshooting – Barrier to Meter Wiring •  To check the barrier to meter wiring, disconnect the (S) and (-) wires at the meter (under the faceplate of the meter), again taking note of which wire was on which connector. • ...
  • Page 14 Step   5   Troubleshooting – 900CDP Meter •  On the 900CDP meter, be aware that if you have the units set to pints, ounces, or user defined, there will be no pulse output. •  If everything from the FMS through the barrier to meter wiring checks ok, replace the meter.
