Flow Meter FC01-LQ

5 Configuration (menu option: CONFIGURATION)

The CONFIGURATION menu serves to adjust the FC01-LQ to the application within the entire system. During system configuration, measuring operations are not possible (see appendix 1). Configuration possibilities are:

5.1 Selection of monitoring head (menu option: SENSOR SELECT)

This menu option comprises all monitoring heads that can be used with the FC01-LQ (issue 07.2003).

The appropriate sensor can be selected from the following menu (for type designation see type label or CPI catalogue).

• TYPE CSP11WM1

(insertion head for water with sensor adapter TP-..)

• TYPE CSP11WM1BV

(insertion head for water with ball valve BV-..)

• TYPE CSF11WM1

(monitoring head for water with adjustable immersion depth)

TYPE S-No. xxx (custom designed monitoring head for special liquids) The monitoring head programme is continuously extended - please enquire.

Caution!

Menu option SENSOR SELECT may influence data in the parameter selection menu (see para. 5.12, Quitting the configuration menu).

5.2 Monitoring head data (menu option: SENSOR CODE)

To operate the FC01-LQ with a calorimetric monitoring head, it is necessary to set sensor- specific characteristics.

These characteristics are specified by the sensor code which together with the monitoring head type number is marked on the monitoring head housing.

Enter the following characteristics when selecting a CSF monitoring head. The setting is menu driven:

1.

SENSOR CODE C value

characteristics range: 700 … 1300

2.

SENSOR CODE T value

characteristics range: 01 … 99

Caution!

Take care to repeat these settings after replacing the monitoring head or electronic control unit FC01-LQ, as the accuracy of measurements is determined by the sensor code.

Enter the following characteristics when selecting a CSP monitoring head:

1.

SENSOR CODE C value

characteristics range: 700 … 1300

2.

SENSOR CODE value

characteristics range: 01 … 99

The nominal diameter of the ball valve is selected in menu option BV SIZE SELECT.

Available sizes are:

• DN25 (1 in), DN32 (1 1/4 in), DN40 (1 1/2 in) und DN50 (2 in).
