3 DESCRIPTION

The SELD-103-X (where “X” designates a specific
hardware or software configuration custom per the
order) model is a wireless transmitting unit
designed to monitor multiple sensor inputs and
wirelessly transmit the data to a receiver. It has the

option of enabling wireless transmission (to
become part of an IPS Wireless system) or
disabling wireless functionality (to perform as a
local alert or data-logging unit).

Figure 1: Sample SELD-103 unit

The SELD-103 is a self-powered unit that has 5
communication ports to measure up to 7 different
sensor inputs (utilizing combination sensors) per
unit (configuration limitations are detailed in section

3.1 Options and model numbers). Each unit also
has a single diagnostics port (on the back of the
base) for programming and troubleshooting the unit
as well as logging data with the VB-103-TAM
accessory (where collected data is stored).
Programming the unit requires a programming
cable and special software utility (PSP).

Figure 2: SELD-103 unit connection ports

The SELD-103 model has a built-in Omni­directional wireless antenna, allowing for reliable
signal transmission. Data transmittal can occur at
a customizable time interval, ranging from every 5

3.3 Performance and operation limits

This product has been selected to meet the
specification of your purchase order.

The following data is included as additional
information to help with your installation. This is
typical information and if required, a definitive
statement for your application can be obtained from
Flowserve.

SELD-103 material compatibility is

the responsibility of the end user.

3.3.1 Sensor specifications

Refer to section 1.8 Specifications for available
sensor specifications.

3.3.2 Battery

Power is provided by a user-

replaceable lithium battery pack S1-1043, located
in the inner portion of the transmitter housing.
Battery life is dependent upon data transmittal
intervals. Battery voltage should normally be
between 2.8 and 3.6 VDC. If it is lower than this,
the battery will need to be replaced. The battery
voltage can be read at the receiver or through the
PSP software when connected directly to the
SELD-103 unit (refer to PSP software user
instructions for details on how to do this). See
table below for approximate battery life times for
the SELD-103.

Table 3: SELD-103 approximate battery life at
various measurement intervals under ideal
conditions

3.4 VB-103-TAM Optional Accessory

The VB-103-TAM is an optional Take Away
Memory module for the SELD-103 unit. When
connected to an SELD-103, it automatically logs
data from all sensors at the preconfigured log
interval. Data from the VB-103-TAM and the log
interval can be reviewed utilizing an IPS Dock
connected to a PC. The VB-103-TAM is set to a
default log interval (how often current data from the

SELD-103 is logged to the VB-103-TAM device) of
5 minutes (300 seconds), unless otherwise
specified. This is independent of the normal
measurement interval of the SELD-103 which
governs how often sensors are read.

The VB-103-TAM has a separate battery
that governs the lifetime of this unit. The expected
life of this battery is 6 years at the default 5 minute
log interval. The battery in the VB-103-TAM is not
replaceable and requires replacing the VB-103­TAM unit when it is depleted.

The VB-103-TAM also has a finite amount of data
storage available. Dependent on the amount of
data points being measured and the measurement
interval, this storage capacity is defined as listed in
the table below.

Table 4: VB-103-TAM data storage capacity at
various measurement intervals and numbers of
data parameters

3.5 Visual Alert Optional Accessory

The Visual Alert is an optional accessory for the
SELD-103 unit. When connected to an SELD-103,
it automatically provides a visual light indication if
any sensors on the SELD-103 unit is or have been
in alarm status. To define the alarm limits for each
sensor, refer to Section 5 CUSTOM
CONFIGURATION PROGRAMMING.

The table below describes each of the different
types of indications offered by the Visual Alert
