General Information This manual provides the necessary information for installation and operation of your flow instrument; for detailed information on any flowmeters or accessories supplied with your instrument please consult the relevant flowmeter product manual. This instrument should only be installed and maintained by persons familiar with local regulations, particularly those for workplace Health and Safety.
1. Introduction 1.1 Product Overview The FLOMEC EB11 “Easy Batch” is a dual stage batch controller designed to create an efficient and accurate dispensing experience. Mountable either directly onto a FLOMEC flow meter or remotely, and compatible with multiple types of industry signals, the EB11 allows the user to control the volume of fluid dispensed into their process.
1.2 Specifications High impact glass reinforced nylon and nitrile O-Ring providing an IP rating of Physical IP66/67 Operating Temperature Range is -20 C ~ 60 C (-4 F ~ 140 Dimensions: 54 x 29mm (2.13” x 1.14”) 7 digit primary alpha-numeric LCD display with 12mm characters 7-digit secondary alpha-numeric LCD display with 7mm characters Display: White LED backlight available with external DC power...
2. Operation 2.1 Key Functions The following keys are available: Fig. 2: Control panel Functions of the keys START-key This key is used to: START the batch process. to enter the preset value during programming. to reset the total value. ...
2.2 Operator Functions By default, the EB11 will act at Operator level. For the Operator, the following functions are available: To enter a batch quantity To change the PRESET-value, following procedure must be followed: press START + STOP quickly and simultaneously: the word "PROG" will be...

Interrupting and ending the batch process When STOP is pressed once, the batch process will be temporarily interrupted; the actual values are not lost. At the display, the word "RUN" will be flashing. From this stage, the batch process can be resumed with the START-key. The process can be ended entirely at all times by pressing STOP twice in which case the actual values are "lost"...
This instrument may be purchased as a meter mount display which will mount on the top of any Flomec flow meter. For any instruments purchased as field mount, these may be converted to a meter mount instrument by purchasing a new rear enclosure.
3.4 Wall and Pipe Mounting Mounting of the instrument on a pipe or flat surface (such as a wall) can be accomplished using the Wall Mount Kit (part no. 1522001) or Pipe Mount Kit (part no. 1522002) – see next page for diagram.

The rear enclosure of the instrument should be mounted behind the panel (as per diagram above) to protect the electronics module from damage and provide separation from any conductive components inside the panel/cabinet. 1.888.610.7664 www.calcert.com sales@calcert.com...
Terminals can be tightened with a 2.5mm or 3/32” flat blade screw-driver. 4.1 Input Connections The EB11 can take a variety of common industrial inputs, including coil, NPN and reed. A 8.2V DC power supply terminal with current capacity of 10mA is available for powering low-power flowmeter electronics.
4.1.2 NPN Signal Input The EB11 is suitable for use with flowmeters which have a NPN output signal such as the hall effect output on the OM series flowmeter. The sensor supply (terminal 4) can power the electronics on OM series flowmeter PCBs. If the EB11 is ordered as the integral option for an OM series flowmeter, it will come in this configuration.
4.1.4 NAMUR Signal Input The EB11 is suitable for flowmeters with a NAMUR signal. The EB11 is able to power the NAMUR sensor via the 8.2V sensor supply (terminal 4). 4.2 Digital Outputs 4.2.1 NPN Transistor Outputs The functionality of the digital outputs is to control a valve, pump or other device.
5. Programming Parameters To enter programming mode, hold the START key down for 7 seconds until the SETUP indicator stops flashing. Once programming mode has been entered the STOP key can be used to cycle through the four sub-menu options and the START key can be used to view the screens within each sub-menu.
5.2 Overrun Menu Explanation of SETUP-menu 2 – Overrun Overrun can occur at the end of the batch process, as a result of a slow acting valve or pump. Consequently, the accuracy is reduced. With this function, the Easybatch analyses the actual overrun characteristic after every batch and corrects the overrun automatically.
5.3.2 Explanation of SETUP-menu 4 – Other OTHER MODEL For support and maintenance it is important to have information about the characteristics of the SOFTWARE VERSION Easybatch. Your supplier will ask for this SERIAL NO. information in the case of a serious breakdown or to assess the suitability of your model for upgrade considerations.
6. Problem Solving In this appendix, several problems are included that can occur when the Easybatch is going to be installed or while it is in operation. Flowmeter does not generate pulses Check: Signal selection SETUP 3.1. Pulse amplitude (paragraph 4.6.1). ...
