10. Function Description

The LF232 flowmeter converter is equipped with 4 digital outputs and 2 digital inputs (1 digital output as standard), enabling you to use these as various functions such as pulse output and alarm outputs.

Digital I/O functions are described below.

Functions

Description

 

 

Flow totalization

Totalizes flow volume in volumetric unit.

 

For totalized flow, a pulse output per each unit of flow volume can be

 

sent out.

 

The operation to start, stop and reset the totalizer and pulse output can

 

be controlled with Digital Input.

 

 

Multiple ranges

Measuring ranges can be switched in accordance with flow rate.

 

Measuring ranges can be switched automatically or by control using

 

Digital Inputs.

 

 

Forward and reverse ranges

Forward and reverse direction flows can be measured.

 

Forward and reverse ranges can be combined with multiple ranges.

 

 

Flow rate High/Low limit

If the flow rate exceeds or lowers below the preset value, an alarm will

(High-high limit/Low-low limit)

be output.

alarms

2 high limit alarm outputs and 2 low limit alarm outputs, 4 alarm

 

outputs in total, can be sent out.

 

 

Fluid empty alarm

If the fluid to be measured flows out from the measuring pipe of the

 

detector, an alarm is output.

 

(In the case of LF232*F, fluid empty alarm function is not usable.)

 

 

Preset counter

If the count of the totalizer exceeds the preset value, a signal is output.

 

 

Remote still water zero adjustment

Still water zero adjustment can be controlled using Digital Inputs.

 

 

Fixed value output (loop output)

Fixed value for current output and pulse output can be sent out to

 

perform a loop check for output lines.

 

The fixed value output mode can also be switched by control using

 

Digital Inputs.

 

 

Converter error alarm

If an error is detected such as memory error or excitation circuit error,

 

an alarm is output.
