Description

Relay Control Outputs

The FC-5000 BTU Monitor has two relay outputs, either a mechanical Form C switch or a solid state Form A switch� The product configuration determines which switches are available� All control functions are always available by dedicated relay outputs� Unneeded outputs may be left disconnected or disabled within the firmware�
Relays can be used for alarm indication or as a totalizing output�
Form-C
• Can be powered directly from mains circuits rated up to 240V�
• Must be powered through circuits that are insulated from mains by at least basic insulation�
• Connected sources of power need to be limited to 240V AC and fused at 5A or less�
• Not suitable for connection to external circuits that are insulated from mains by at least double insulation (SELV)�
Form A
• Located on TB4 and recommended to use, if configured as a high-rate, totalizing output�
• Relay energizes (contact closes) with a minimum input current of 3 mA through the input LED�
• The relay turns off (contact opens) with an input voltage of 0�8V or less�

Power Supply

The power supply used must be isolated from mains by double or reinforced insulation (for instance, SELV power supply)�
The FC-5000 BTU Monitor operates on 10…40V DC or 9…28V AC supplied by any suitable source that also meets the requirement listed above� Badger Meter has power supplies available for the FC-5000 BTU Monitor�
Power Supply Part Numbers:
• 68334-001: includes wall mount (wall wart) power supply and various adapters
• 68334-002: power module that allows discrete power wiring
A power supply not sourced from the factory must be capable of supplying a minimum of 8 Watts�
Conguring the Unit
The FC-5000 BTU Monitor is designed for many types of applications� See
“Advanced Setup” on page 32 for instructions on configuring your
FC-5000 BTU Monitor to your specific requirements�
All information is stored in EEPROM memory and will not be lost in the event of power failure�
