1 INTRODUCTION

1.1 SYSTEM DESCRIPTION OF THE B3100 Functions and features

The flowrate / totalizer model B3100 is an explosion proof microprocessor driven instrument designed to linearize the flowmeter’s flow curve and to show the flowrate, the total and the accumulated total.

This product has been designed with a focus on:

• User-friendliness: operation through the glass without removing the cover.

• Good readings in full sunlight and darkness through a bright backlight.

• Mounting flexibility: multiple solutions for sensor mounting, including 1” NPT bottom entry as well as

suitable for wall or pipe mount applications.

• Ruggedness for harsh surrounding: not just designed to be explosion proof.

• Usability: wide operational temperature, high ingress protection rating and international certification.

• Installation friendly design: s pac ious cab li ng area, plug and pla y cable con nec ti on and easy removable

electronic module.

• Aluminum enclosure with high quality industrial two component coating.

• Stainless steel 316L enclosure available for offshore applications.

• Ability to process any type of sensor signal,

• Multiple power supply options to suit any application, including long-life battery supply.

• Configurable pulse and analog signal outputs and optional communication outputs.

Flowmeter input

This manual describes the B3100 with a pulse t ype input from the flowmeter “-P version”. Other versions are pending to process (0)4-20mA or 0-10V flowmeter signals.

One flowmeter with a passive or active pulse, NAMUR or coil signal output can be connected to the B3100. To power the sensor, several options are available.

Fig. 1: Application lay-out (typical)

DSY-UM-02251-EN-02 (October 2017)

Page 8 Blancett B3100 Flo w M onit or

Standard outputs

• Configurable pulse output: a scaled pulse representing a certain linearized total quantity. Maximum frequency 500Hz. The pulse length can be set as desired.

• Configurable linear 4-20mA isolated analog output with 12-bits resolution representing the actual linearized flowrate. Flowrate levels as well as the minimum and maximum signal output can be tuned.

Configuration

The B3100 has been designed to be implemented in many types of applications. For that reason, a SETUPlevel is available to configure your B3100 according to your specific requirements.

It includes several important features, such as K-Factor, measurement units, signal selection etc. All setting are stored in EEPROM mem or y and will not be lost in the event of power failur e. A backup of the total and accumulated total in EEPROM memory is made every minute.

To extend the battery-life time, please use of the power-management functions as described in chapter 3.2.3.

Display information

The B3100 has a large LCD with all kinds of symbols and digits to display measurement units, status information, trend-indication and key-word messages.

Flowrate and totals can be displayed either with the 11 small 7mm (0.28”) digits or with the 7 large 12mm (0.47”) digits. Additionally, the B3100 has an analog speedometer to show the actual flowrate.

Backlight

A backlight is standard available. The intensity can be set as desired with SETUP 3.3. (externally powered only).

In battery powered applications it will be switched on during a limited period of time at a fixed intensity and will switch off automatically within 30 seconds after a key touch.

For loop powered applications only, the backlight will not come on because of limited power.

Options

The following options are available: full Modbus communication RS232 or USB (also battery powered), mechanical relay or active outputs, power- and sensor-supply options.

The arrow-key is used to select a digit after PROG has been pressed or to configure the B3100; please read chapter 3.

Use of optical keys

The optical keys are designed to operate stable and will not be activated when the glass surface is not clean. Keep the glass surface clean to avoid false key activations (false activations reduce battery lifetime). Also do not mount objects within 100mm in the front of the product (shiny surfaces could cause false activations). It is not necessary to touch the glass for activation. Activating by touching the clean glass surface normally also works fine, but in case of detection problems try not to touch the glass.

Enable optical keys

The optical keys are disabled after 30 seconds when enabled at SETUP 9.5. A key lock symbol will appear at the top of the display to indicate this.

To enable the optical keys, touch briefly after each other all three keys in the following order: PROG – SELECT – CLEAR. The display will hint this sequence. The key lock symbol will disappear when the sequence is successfully

executed.

3.2.1 EXPLANATION OF SETUP-MENU – AUTOMATIC UNIT CONVERSION

For a detailed description and instruction, refer to the B3100 tutorial - Automatic unit conversion. The automatic unit conversion is a feature that helps you to avoid the different K-Factor calculations for the (accumulated) total and the flowrate. With the automatic unit conversion, you only need the test/calibration certificate that came with your flowmeter. On this certificate you will find the (average) K-Factor and the related measurement unit. To use the automatic unit conversion, you only need to enter the (average) K-Factor and the related measurement unit from the flowmeter certificate.

You need to preset the type of measurement unit: volume, mass or hand. Hand is selected for measurement units which are not supported by the automatic unit conversion.

This setting influences the accuracy of the K-factor indirectly (i.e. the

quantity. The K-factor is based on the number of pulses generated by the flowmeter per selected measurement unit (SETUP 4.2), for example per cubic meter. The more accurate the K-factor, the more accurate the functioning of the system will be.

Example 1: Calculating the K-factor.

Assume that the flowmeter generates 2.4813 pulses per liter and the selected unit is “cubic meters / m3”. A cubic meter consists of 1000 parts of one liter which implies 2,481.3 pulses per m3. So, the K-factor is 2,481.3. Enter for SETUP 4.4: “2481300” and for SETUP 4.5 – decimals K-factor “3”.

Example 2: Calculating the K-factor.

Assume that the flowmeter generates 6.5231 pulses per gallon and the selected measurement unit is gallons. So, the K-Factor is 6.5231. Enter for SETUP 4.4: “6523100” and for SETUP 4.5 decimals

3.2.6 EXPLANATION OF SETUP-MENU 5 – LINEARIZE

The linearization function is available to approach the real flow curve better as with the general K-factor (KF0). This to obtain a more accurate flowrate, total and accumulated total as well as the analog and pulse output at any flowmeter frequency. A maximum of 15 linearization-positions can be entered while the interpolation will calculate any other position in-between. For each linearization position, the frequency and a Meter Factor (MF) must be entered. The Meter Factor for each frequency is calculated with following formula:

The lowest frequency and MF you enter will be valid from 0Hz. The highest frequency and MF will be valid till 10KHz. It is advised to enter the frequencies in increasing order, however it is not necessary. Please have a look at following example to understand the method of linearization:

The following environmental conditions and safety parameters apply when installing the B3100.

The following supply ratings apply for the various installed options (not mentioned options implies no or neglectable influence on the ratings)

If a combination of inputs is used, use the maximum value mentioned!

• All wiring must be in accordance with local codes and regulations.

• In case this instrument is connected to a supply by means of a permanent connection a switch or circuit-

breaker shall be included in the installation. This shall be in close proximity to the equipment and within easy reach of the operator. It shall be marked as the disconnecting device for the equipment.

• Except for the relay outputs R7 to R10 all connections to the unit shall be low voltage defined as “SELV” circuit per IEC 60950-1.

• The equipment shall be supplied from a “SELV” circuit defined as per IEC 60950-1.

• A suitable power supply should be considered in end-use equipment. The power supply must be in

compliance with a limited-energy circuit (maximum available current of 8 A). If the power supply cannot be in compliance with a limited-energy circuit:

• For safety install an overcurrent protection device (such as fuse) with adequate breaking capacity close to the instrument.

− Fuse type: Time-lag fuse (Approved fuse according to IEC60127-2 and/or UL248-14)

− Fuse rating: Rated current: 5 A

• The installation must comply with national requirements (e.g. in Canada, the Canadian Electrical Code,

C22.1, Part 1 and in USA, the National Electrical Code, NFPA 70, Article 500-series and ANSI/ISA-RP 12).

It is strongly advised to use a “zero power” pickup such as a coil or reed-switch when operating without external power. It is possible to use some low power NPN or PNP output signals, but the battery life time will be significantly reduced (consult your distributor).

4.5 TERMINAL CONNECTORS – MAIN ELECTRONICS MODULE

Type OT A passive transistor out put is available with this option. Max. driving capacity 300mA@50V DC.

R1 is a common ground (GND) terminal.

Fig. 15: Terminal connections – Passive output R1

Terminal S1-S3; Flowmeter inputs

Three basic types of flowmeter signals can be connected to the unit: pulse, active pulse or sine-wave (coil). The screen of the signal wire must be connected to the common ground terminal (unless earthed at the sensor itself).

The sensor output should match with the selected flowmeter setting during SETUP (read par. 3.4.).

Sine-wave signal (Coil)

The B3100 is suitable for use with flowmeters which have a coil output signal. Two sensitivity levels can be selected with the SETUP-function:

• COIL LO: sensitivity 90mVpp.

• COIL HI: sensitivity 20mVpp.

Fig. 16: Terminal connections – Coil signal input

Pulse-signal NPN / NPN-LP

The B3100 is suitable for use with flowmeters which have a NPN output signal. For reliable pulse detection, the signal should be bigger than 1.4V or lower than 1.0V under all circumstances. It is advised to use a sensor which is normally open and is closed for a small time (less power consumption). For better noise immunity and if no high sensor input frequencies are expected it is advised to select signal setting NPN-LP – low-pass signal noise filter which limits the maximum input frequency, to avoid pulse bounce (read par. 3.4.).

Pulse-signal PNP / PNP-LP

The B3100 is suitable for use with flowmeters which have a PNP output signal. 3.0V is offered on terminal S3 which has to be switched by the sensor to terminal S2 (SIGNAL). For reliable pulse detection, the signal should be bigger than 1.4V or lower than 1.0V under all circumstances. It is advised to use a sensor which is normally open and is closed for a small time (less power consumption). For better noise immunity and if no high sensor input frequencies are expected it is advised to select signal setting PNP-LP – low-pass signal noise filter which limits the maximum input frequency, to avoid pulse bounce (read par. 3.4.).

Fig. 18: Terminal connections – PNP signal input

Reed-switch

The B3100 is suitable for use with flowmeters which have a reed-switch. To avoid pulse bounce from the reedswitch, it is advised to select REED LP – low-pass noise filter, which limits the maximum input frequency (read par. 3.4.). Make sure the contact resistance of the reed switch is less than 1V@2uA=500k Ohm.

Fig. 19: Terminal connections – Reed-switch signal input

NAMUR-signal

The B3100 is suitable for flowmeters with a NAMUR signal. The B3100 is not able to power the NAMUR sensor.

Active signals 8.2V and 24V

The B3100 is suitable for flowmeters with an Active signal. The detection levels are about 50% of the selected supply voltage; approximately 4V (ACT_8.1) or 12V (ACT_24). See par. 3.4. for more information.

Fig. 21: Terminal connections – Active signal input

Terminal E1-E2 – External Reset with clear-lock- Type IB

With this function the total can be reset to zero with an external switch. The total resets at the moment a falling edge is detected (the moment the switch closes). During close the ”Clear Total” function is disabled (see chapter 2). Make sure the contact resistance of the switch is less than 0.8V@2uA=400k Ohm. A reset pulse should last for at least 200ms

The input must be switched with a normally open contact to GND.

Fig. 22: Terminal connections – External reset input

Terminal C1-C4 – Communication RS485

• Serial communications on hardware layers, RS485 (length of cable max. 1200 meters). Make sure that the hardware layer specific requirements are met to achieve reliable communication.

• Read the Modbus communication protoc ol and Ap pen d ix C.

Terminal A1-A2 Isolated analog output (type AH)

The flowrate proportional output (AH) is standard available. This output is an isolated 4-20mA output with the possibility to power the device via the 4-20mA loop. It is Non-polarity sensitive.

When the output is disabled, the current is by default limited to 3.5mA. Max. driving capacity 1000 Ohm @ 27V DC. If only powered by the loop the backlight will not be activated.

The total loop resistance may not exceed 1000 Ohm and may not be less than 330 Ohm (at 30mA). This makes that the resistance of other loop-devices in total may not exceed 670 Ohm. E.g. 18Vdc allows 250 Ohm.

5.1 GENERAL DIRECTIONS

carried out by trained personnel authorized by the operator of the facility. Personnel must read and understand this Operating Manual before carrying out its instructions. Take careful notice of the “Safety rules, instructions and precautionary measures” in the front of this manual.

• The B3100 may only be operated by personnel who are authorized and trained by the operator of the facility. All instructions in this manual are to be observed.

• Ensure that the measuring system is correctly wired up according to the wiring diagrams. The housing may only be opened by trained personnel.

• Take careful notice of the “Safety rules, instructions and precautionary measures” in the front of this manual.

The B3100 does not require special maintenance unless it is used in low-temperature applications or surroundings with high humidity (above 90% annual mean). It is the users responsibility to take all precautions to dehumidify the internal atmosphere of the B3100 in such a way that no condensation will occur, for example by placing dry silica-gel sachet in the casing just before closing it. Furthermore, it is required to replace or dry the silica gel periodically as advised by the silica gel supplier.

Due to incompatibility do not use silica gel in environments where Hydrogen fluoride, strong acids and strong bases are to be expected.

Battery life-time

It is strongly advised to use only necessary functions. E.g. disable analog output signal if not in use.

It is influenced by several issues :

• Display update: fast display update uses significantly more power.

• Pulse output.

• Low temperatures; the available power will be less due to battery chemistry.

• NPN and PNP inputs consume more energy than coil inputs.

• High input frequency.

• Communication.

• Optical key activity.

Check periodically

• The condition of the enclosure, cable glands and front panel.

• The input/output wiring for reliability and aging symptoms.

• The process accuracy. As a result of wear and tear, re-calibration of the flowmeter might be necessary. Do

not forget to re-enter any subsequent K-factor alterations.

• The indication for low-battery.

• Clean the enclosure with a lint-free cloth, soaked with a mild soap solution or fresh water.

PROBLEM SOLVING

In this appendix, several problems are included that can occur when the B3100 is going to be installed or while it is in operation.

Flowmeter does not generate pulses

Check:

• Signal selection SETUP – 4.1,

• Pulse amplitude (par. 4.4.3.),

• Flowmeter, wiring and connection of terminal connectors (par. 4.4.3.),

• Power supply of flowmeter (par. 4.4.2.).

Flowmeter generates "too many pulses"

Check:

• Settings for Total and Flowrate,

• Type of signal selected with actual signal generated.

• Sensitivity of coil input.

• Proper grounding of the B3100, avoi d ground lo ops .

• Use screened wire for flowmeter signals and connect screen to the ground input terminal of the flowmeter

input.

Analog output does not function properly

Check:

• SETUP 5.1 - is the function enabled?

• SETUP 5.2 / 5.3: are the flow-levels programmed correctly?

• Connection of the external power-supply according to the specification.

Pulse output does not function

Check:

• SETUP 7.1 - pulse per “x” quantity; is the value programmed reasonable?

• SETUP 7.2 - impulse width; is the external device able to recognize the selected pulse width and

frequency?

Flowrate displays "0 / zero" while there is flow (total is counting)

Check:

• SETUP 2.2 / 2.5: are the K-factor and time unit correct?

• SETUP 2.6 / 2.7: The unit has to count the number of pulses according to SETUP 2.6 within the time

according to SETUP 2.7. Make sure that 2.7 is set to 10.0 seconds for example: the result is that the unit has at least 10 seconds time to measure the number of pulses according to SETUP 2.6.

Linearization does not work

Check:

• SETUP 5.G: is the function enabled?

• SETUP 5.1-5.F: are all M-Factors and the frequency entered correctly?

The password is unknown

If the password cannot be retrieved, there is only one possibility left: call your supplier.

ALARM

When the alarm flag starts to blink an internal alarm condition has occurred. Press the "sel ect button" several times to display the error code. The codes are:

MODBUS COMMUNICATION

General

The B3100 is fitted with the Modbus communication protocol and can be equipped with various physical interfaces like RS485. The tables below show the various variables that can be accessed through the communication.

Currently, the function codes supported are:

• function code 3 “Read Holding Registers” (4x references)

• function code 16 “Preset Multiple Registers” (4x references).

The table below shows Modbus PDU addresses in the decimal representation, followed by its hexadecimal representation (0x0000). When the PLC address range is required (4x referenc es typical l y used by PLCs ), please add a value of 40001 to the Modbus PDU address. E.g. reading the serial number with PLC-based addressing means reading 165 + 40001 = register 40166. Variables spanning multiple registers use ‘big-endian’ data representation. This means that the lowest register holds the least significant word of the variable. Although most Modbus Masters will support variables that span 2 registers, variables spanning more registers sometimes require you to manually calculate the resulting value.

Variables spanning multiple registers have always to be read / written in 1 single action!

Following example shows how data is represented and how this calculation can be accomplished: For a total-value of 158928, the following register data has been received by the Modbus master:

PDU Address 566 = 0x0000 = 0 PDU Address 567 = 0x0002 = 2 PDU Address 568 = 0x6CD0 = 27856 If we interpret this as a 48 bit unsigned integer value, i t' s value wou ld be: 0x 000 0. 0002 .6CD0=158928. If this value needs to be calculated: 0*65536*65536 + 2*65536 + 27856 = 158928.

Reading flowrate, total or accumulated total: The returned values are giv en incl ud ing the dec imals and represent the actual value. The given value may differ from the value that is displayed on the display – this is due to the fact that the display is limited in the number of digits and may have a slower update rate set.

For example when two decimals are selected for total and total has a value of 123456,78 the display will show 23456,78 while communication will read a “total” of 12345678 (note that the decimals should be adapted according the setting in “total decimals” which is in this case 2).

Clearing total: It is possible to clear the total counter by means of writing a value of 0 to all the 3 registers of total in a single write action. Writing any other value will result in the reply of an error message.

REGISTERS

Reading and writing the entries of the linearization tables is

done by first selecting the entry through the index. Valid values

uint24

for the index are 0…14, which correspond with the linearization table entries 1 through 15. Indexes outside this range will result in an error being sent back. (See the communication-section of this appendix for setting the index and its extended functionality through variable 150 and 149). The 3 registers represent a structure containing 2 variables of each 3 bytes. The three least significant bytes (PDU address 1024 and LSB of PDU address 1025) contain the frequency part, the three most significant bytes (MSB of PDU address 1025 and PDU address 1026) contain the M-factor part.

Valid range for the frequency is 0.000 to 9999Hz. Decimal point dependent on variable 1039. A value of 0 for frequency means that entry is disabled.

Description

The function of the data log function is to record the performance of the B3100 and the amount of the medium that passed the sensor (e.g. flowmeter) with respect to the time and the date.

There are two different ways to program the data logging function. You can program the data logging function via the setup menu DATALOG or via the serial communication.

There are also two possibilities to review the logged data. You can review the logged data on the B3100 themselves or, if installed, via communication through Modbus and the related PC application. The PC application is available as a free program from our internet download pages.

The recorded data is accessible via the operator menu of the B3100 or via the PC based data log application.

• The datalog menu

The datalog menu has:

• the interval records, to log the interval data;

• the daily records, to log the so called contract hour data;

• the event records, to log the B3100 related events.

• The interval records

The interval records are used to log the interval records (user defined). Each interval record has:

• a sequence number;

• a date/time stamp;

• the flowrate;

• the total;

• the accumulated total.

Page 46 Blancett B3100 Flo w M onit or

Single daily log (typi cal)

Dual daily log (typi cal)

• The daily records

The daily records are used to log the daily records, also known as contract hours (user defined). Each daily record has:

• a sequence number;

• a date/time stamp;

• the flowrate;

• the total;

• the accumulated total.

• The event records

The event records are used to log the B3100 related events. These events have a manufacturer defined content. Each event record has:

• a sequence number;

• a date/time stamp;

• (as applicable) an event type number;

• (as applicable) an event content description.

The event records are used to log events that happen during operation. The logging is done at the moment an event happens.

Operation

The data log function records the performance of the B3100 and the measured medium that passed the sensor (e.g. flowmeter) with respect to the time and the date. The interval and daily records are logged as programmed in the setup menu DATALOG.

• The interval log

This log is made to record the data once at every user defined moment in time. The B3100 makes one record, as a snapshot, per programmed interval. When the maximum amount of records is made, the eldest record is overwritten by the newest record.

• The daily log

This log is used to record the data at a pre-determined time in the day, e.g. before or at the end of a so called contract hour. This function is meant to determine, by hand, the total of the previous contract hour or to trend the total over a certain period of time. When the maximum amount of records is made, the eldest record is overwritten by the newest record.

• The event records

This log is used to record the events. These events have a generic or a specific content (manufacturer defined). The B3100 makes one record every time an event occurs. When the maximum amount of records is made, the eldest record is overwritten by the newest record.
