1.GETTING STARTED

1.1INTRODUCTION

Congratulations on your purchase of the Siemens SITRANS FUS1010 NEMA Permanent Flowmeter. Intended for dedicated applications, this versatile transit-time flowmeter is easy to set up and operate. The Model FUS1010 flowmeter represents the state-of-the-art in computerized instrumentation. We are confident that in a very short time, you will appreciate its unrivaled performance and features; especially Siemens’s ground breaking enhanced transit-time Digitally Coded MultiPuls technology and the on-line automatic and interactive site setup facility. This manual covers FUS1010 Single Channel, Dual Channel/Dual Path and 4-Channel/4-Path flowmeter types in NEMA-4 or NEMA-7 enclosures. Only the Model 1010FTN and 1010AN flowmeters are equipped to utilize the flow tubes shown in Section 6.

This section shows how to install the System FUS1010 flowmeter with a minimal amount of effort. It will show how to use the Installation Menu to set up the system for transit-time, Reflexor and Flow Tube Clamp-on operation. It also shows the basic connections to and from the flowmeter. For additional information on connections, see the drawings at the end of manual.

1.2IMPORTANT SAFETY CONSIDERATIONS

The FUS1010 NEMA Permanent meter operates from either an external AC or DC power source. Please observe all the electrical safety codes, etc., that apply to your application. We recommend that only experienced personnel with knowledge of local electrical codes and safety operating procedures perform the installation and wiring. It is solely the user’s responsibility to operate this equipment safely. Siemens cannot accept responsibility for any damage that may occur due to failure to observe any local safety rules.

If this equipment is used for a hazardous application (high line pressure, hostile liquid characteristics, perilous atmosphere, etc.), the end-user must ensure that only properly trained personnel are involved in its installation and operation.

Please do not let the size of the Installation Menu intimidate you. Almost all menu cells already contain default parameters. To begin operation, you only need to access the menu cells that control a required parameter, such as the pipe outer diameter. You will see that by accepting most defaults, you can set up the meter in about five minutes.
