Series 380 BTU System
380CS/HS Meter
DESCRIPTION
The Series 380 BTU Systems provide a low cost system for metering
cold or hot systems. The 380CS/HS can accurately measure flow and
temperature differential to compute energy. Using either BACnet or
Modbus RS-485 communications protocols or a scaled pulse output,
the BTU Meter can interface with many existing control systems.
The rugged design incorporates an impeller flow sensor and two
temperature probes. One temperature probe is conveniently
mounted directly in the flow sensor tee. The second temperature
probe is placed on either the supply or the return line, depending on
ease of installation for the application. These minimal connections
help simplify installation and save time.
The main advantage of the Series 380 BTU meters is the cost savings
over other systems offered on the market today. The integration of
flow and temperature sensors provide a single solution for metering.
With this system it will be possible to meter energy where it has not
been cost effective before.
Commissioning of this meter can be completed in the field via a
computer connection. Setup includes energy measurement units,
measurement method, communication protocol, pulse output
control, fluid density, and specific heat parameters.
RS-485 Conguration
All Series 380 BTU meters are equipped with BACnet and Modbus
protocols as standard features. The protocol of choice can be
selected and set up in the field at the user’s discretion. These
common protocols allow for quick and easy commissioning while
gaining valuable application data beyond energy total. Information
such as Flow Rate, Flow Total, Energy Rate, Energy Total, Temp 1,
Temp 2, and Delta T can all be transmitted on the RS-485 connection.
Scaled Pulse Output
If the RS-485 is not required for the application, a simple scaled pulse
output is available. The pulse output would represent energy total
and can be set in various units of measure. The pulse output is an
open drain scaled pulse output that is compatible with a variety of
PLCs, counters and the Badger Meter® 350 wireless system, so the
unit is easily compatible with most inputs.
