INTRODUCTION

The MR flow transmitter is a state-of-the-art, microprocessor based variable area flow meter. It combines the rugged proven technology of a piston-type, variable area flow meter with solid state circuitry including:
• Non-contact sensor electronics
• Electronic signal conditioning circuit
• Digital flow rate and total indication
• Proportional analog output The product is sealed against industrial contamination by a NEMA 12 and 13 (IP 52/54) rated enclosure and is available for
either liquid or gas service.
The MR flow transmitter is capable of calculating and displaying both flow rate and total accumulated flow. The flow rate and total flow can be displayed in any of the user selectable measurement units. The monitor’s large 8 digit numeric liquid crystal display makes extended range viewing practical. The second 8 character alphanumeric display provides for selectable units viewing in RUN mode and prompts for variables in PROGRAM mode.
All MR flow transmitters come pre-calibrated from the factory. However, the unit may be adjusted by the user to meet specific system requirements. Calibration parameters are included for:
• Specific gravity compensation (all fluids)
• Viscosity compensation (petroleum-based fluids)
• Pressure and temperature compensation (pneumatic applications) All meters include an analog output that can be configured for 0…5V DC, 0…10V DC, or 4…20 mA current loop. Applications
for the MR flow transmitter include:
• Bearing lubrication
• Case drain verification
• Gun drill and machine cooling
• Pump flow outputs

User Manual

Installation Recommendations

The transmitter is a simple device to install. However, the following measures are recommended for reliable, trouble­free operation:
• Align pipe accurately. Piping should be accurately aligned and of correct length. The high pressure body of the transmitter can withstand shock and flow/pressure pulsation. However, the piping should be firmly supported by external mounting brackets, both upstream and downstream of the meter, to avoid any pipe flexing actions that could reduce meter life.
• Use rigid mounting. If the transmitter inlet or outlet are to be rigidly mounted, and the opposing port is to be connected to flexible hose, the end connected with the flexible hose must be rigidly mounted.
• Use Teflon® tape for sealing NPT fitting.
• Install unions. Install a union near the inlet or outlet of the transmitter. This will facilitate quick, easy meter removal and inspection during periodic maintenance procedures.
• Ensure the fluid is traveling in the direction of the flow arrow. See Figure 4.
OTE:N The MR flow transmitter display board can be rotated 180° for optimal viewing. Simply remove the MR flow
transmitter cover, disconnect the ribbon cable, rotate the display board 180°, reconnect the ribbon cable, and reinstall cover. See Figure 10 for cover screw tightening sequence.
• Use at least a 200 mesh (74 micron) filter. The transmitter will allow particulate to pass that would jam most valves and flow controls. Systems that do not have filtration should be equipped with at least a 200 mesh (74 micron) filter. Most hydraulic systems already have much finer filtration. Dirt, ferrous metal or sealing agents, such as Teflon® tape may lodge and cause malfunction. If the meter is jammed at a fixed position, follow cleaning and maintenance instructions.
• Do not use thread locking compounds as thread sealant.
• Do not install the transmitter near turbulence producing fittings such as elbows, reducers, or close coupled valves. The
transmitter does not require flow straighteners or special lengths of straight inlet/outlet piping to stabilize turbulent flow patterns. However, to assure maximum operational reliability, avoid installation of elbows, valves and/or reducers immediately adjacent to the meter inlet.
• Do not install the transmitter near fast-acting valves. Fast-acting valves have the potential to create high magnitude hydraulic pressure spikes. These spikes can damage the internal components of the meter, resulting in inaccuracies or malfunction.
• Do not allow unidirectional transmitters to be operated against the direction of the flow arrow. The standard transmitter is a unidirectional flow meter. The piston acts as a check valve to block flow in the reverse direction. This causes an excessive pressure differential, which can result in damage to internal meter components. The transmitter is also available in a modified design, which offers a reverse flow bypass feature to accommodate bidirectional flow.
OTE:N Transmitters with a reverse flow bypass feature are available. Consult factory for details.

Electrical Connections

Cable may be shortened or lengthened as required for proper installation. The cable is soldered directly to the electrical connector at the factory.
Cable replacement requires disassembly of the electrical connector.

Rate Units of Measure
The meter allows the selection of many common rate units. Its displayed name is RATE UNT and is viewed or changed using the List Item Selection Procedure.
Rate (Time) Interval
The meter allows selection of several intervals based on time. Its displayed name is RATE INT and is viewed or changed using the List Item Selection Procedure.
Total Units of Measure
If the total flow is being displayed, the units for the total must first be chosen. The monitor allows the choice of many common totalization units. Its displayed name is TOTL UNT and is viewed or changed using the List Item Selection Procedure.
Total Display Multiplier
The meter has the ability to accumulate the flow total in multiples of ten. For example, if the most desirable totalization unit is 1000 gallons, the monitor can easily be set up for this requirement. Once back in RUN mode, every time the total display increments by one digit the actual total would be an additional 1000 gallons. At 1000 total gallons the total display would read 1, at 3000 gallons the total display would read 3. This feature allows the unit to accumulate totals that would exceed the 8-digit display capacity. Table 2 lists the available selection choices. Its displayed name is TOTL EXP and is viewed or changed using the List Item Selection Procedure.

MAINTENANCE

BEFORE ATTEMPTING TO REMOVE THE TRANSMITTER FROM THE LINE, CHECK THE SYSTEM TO CONFIRM THAT LINE PRESSURE HAS BEEN REDUCED TO ZERO PSI. FAILURE TO FOLLOW THESE INSTRUCTIONS COULD RESULT IN SERIOUS PERSONAL INJURY OR DEATH AND/OR DAMAGE TO THE EQUIPMENT.
DISCONNECT ELECTRICAL POWER BEFORE REMOVING METER COVER. FAILURE TO FOLLOW THESE INSTRUCTIONS COULD RESULT IN SERIOUS PERSONAL INJURY OR DEATH AND/OR DAMAGE TO THE EQUIPMENT.

Cartridge Cleaning

1. Disconnect the transmitter cable.
2. Remove the meter from the line. Remove excess piping from the transmitter. See Figure 4 and Figure 5.
OTE:N It is not necessary to remove the aluminum housing from the transmitter to remove it from the line.
3. Thoroughly wipe o the entire transmitter surface using mild detergent or isopropyl alcohol.
DO NOT USE AROMATIC HYDROCARBONS, HALOGENATED HYDROCARBONS, KETONES OR ESTER BASED FLUIDS ON POLYCARBONATE LENS. FAILURE TO FOLLOW THESE INSTRUCTIONS COULD RESULT IN DAMAGE TO THE TRANSMITTER.
4. Remove the inlet port cap, wave spring, retaining ring, and cone assembly from the transmitter body (Figure 9).
5. Gently push the body towards the outlet port.
6. The piston, inner magnet and transmitter spring are secured within the transmitter body with a retaining ring. Remove the retaining ring with a small screwdriver, then the internal components can be removed from the body (Figure 9).
OTE:N If internal parts do not slide freely from cartridge, use a wooden dowel inserted into the outlet port of the meter to
push parts out.
7. Place all parts on a clean work surface. Clean and inspect all parts. Replace any that appear worn or damaged. Check inlet port O-ring for damage and replace if required.
FIELD REPLACEMENT OF THE SPRING, METERING CONE AND/OR PISTON/MAGNET ASSEMBLY MAY RESULT IN CHANGES TO THE CALIBRATION OF THE FLOW METER.
8. Reassemble the transmitter by inserting the transmitter spring into the body, followed by the piston/inner magnet assembly. A slight compression of the piston against the spring is required during installation of the retaining ring.
9. Gently push body assembly into the outlet end of the transmitter enclosure. The at surface of the body output port should be ush with the transmitter enclosure opening.
10. With the transmitter positioned vertically on a at surface, inlet port facing up, install the transmitter cone assembly and wave spring into the body and secure with the inlet port end cap.
11. Reinstall transmitter to the line. Reconnect electrical power.

Inspection

1. Frequent inspection should be made. The environment and frequency of use should determine a schedule for maintenance checks. It is recommended that it should be at least once a year.
2. Perform visual, electrical, and mechanical checks on all components on a regular basis.
3. Visually check for undue heating evidence such as discoloration of wires or other components, damaged or worn parts, or leakage evidence such as water or corrosion in the interior.
4. Make sure all electrical connections are clean and tight and that the device is wired properly.

APPLICATION INFORMATION, LIQUID

Viscosity Eect (SUS/cSt)
The design uses a precision machined, sharp- edged orifice and biasing calibration spring that assures operating stability and accuracy over the wide viscosity range common to many fluids. Generally, high flow models of each meter size provide good accuracy over a viscosity range of 40…500 SUS (4.2…109 cSt).
Density Eect (specic gravity)
Any fluid density change from stated standards has a proportional effect on meter accuracy. Corrections for more or less dense fluids can be made to standard scales using the following correction factor:
10.
Specic Gravity
0 876.
Specic Gravity
For water/water-based meters
For petroleum-based meters
Application Information Pneumatic
OTE:N Pressure and temperature readings must be taken at the flow meter inlet to ensure accurate correction factors.
The pneumatic flow meter is calibrated for air in standard cubic feet per minute (scfm) at 1.0 s.g. (70° F @ 100 psi), and liter per second (lps) at 1.0 s.g. (21° C @ 6.9 bar).

The pressure drop curves are valid for fluids with density and viscosity similar to factory test fluids. Fluids, especially with higher viscosity than theses test fluids, will yield a higher pressure drop through the flow meter and piping system per a given flow volume.
A system must have adequate fluidic horsepower available to move the system fluid at a prescribed rate at a pressure adequate to overcome all pressure reducing devices, including the flow meter.
