1. INTRODUCTION

1.1. SYSTEM DESCRIPTION Functions and features

The flow rate / totalizer model F112-A is a microprocessor driven instrument designed to display the flow rate, the total and the accumulated total. This product has been designed with a focus on:

 ultra-low power consumption to allow long-life battery powered applications (type PB/PC);  intrinsic safety for use in hazardous applications (type XI),  ability to process all types of flowmeter signals;  transmitting possibilities with analog, pulse and communication outputs;  several mounting possibilities with GRP or aluminum enclosures for industrial surroundings.

Flowmeter input

This manual describes the unit with a (0)4-20mA input from the flowmeter. Other versions are available to process pulse signals. One flowmeter with a (0)4-20mA output can be connected to the F112-A. To power the sensor, several options are available.

Standard outputs

 Pulse output to transmit a pulse that represents a linearized totalized quantity as programmed.  Linear (0)4-20mA or 0-10V analog output to represent the actual flow rate as programmed. The

(0)4-20mA or 0-10V signal limits can be tuned.

Fig. 1: Typical application

Configuration

The F112-A is designed for use in many types of applications. For that reason, a setup menu is available to program the F112-A according to your specific requirements. The setup includes several important features, such as span, engineering units, signal selection, power management (to extend battery life-time), etc. All settings are stored in a non-volatile memory and therefore kept in the event of a power failure or an exhausted battery.

Display information

The unit has a LCD with (optional) backlight to show the process information, status and alarm messages. The display refresh rate is programmed in the setup menu.

At a key press, the display refresh rate will switch to FAST for 30 seconds. When 'OFF' is selected, the display goes off after 30 seconds after the last key press. The display temporarily comes on after a key press. A backup of the total and accumulated total in EEPROM memory is made every minute.

Options

The following options are available: isolated or active (0)4-20mA / 0-10V analog output, full Modbus communication RS232/485/TTL (also battery powered), intrinsic safety, mechanical relay or active output, power- and sensor-supply options, panel -mount, wall-mount and weather-proof enclosures, flame proof enclosure and LED backlight.

In general, the F112-A operates in the operator mode. The shown information depends on the settings which are made in the setup menu. The signal from the connected sensor is processed by the F112-A in the background, independent from the selected display refresh rate.

Fig. 3: Process information (typical)

Only use original batteries. Original batteries can be ordered at the manufacturer. The use of unapproved batteries will void the warranty.



At the end of the battery’s life-time, the voltage starts to drop. When the voltage becomes too low, the battery indicator comes on. When the battery indicator is on, install a

new and fresh battery as soon as possible.

2.3. OPERATOR INFORMATION AND FUNCTIONS

For the Operator, the following functions are available:

 Display (linearized) flow rate / total or flow rate

This is the main display information of the F112-A . After the selection of any other information, it will always return to this main display automatically. Total is shown on the upper line of the display and flow rate on the bottom line. When selected in the setup menu, the display shows the flow rate only. When you press the select key, the total shows momentarily.

 Clear total

The value for total can be reset. To do so, press the CLEAR/ key twice. When the key is pressed once, the text "PUSH CLEAR" is shown. To avoid a reset at this stage, press another key other than the CLEAR/ key or wait for 20 seconds. A reset of the total does not influence the accumulated total. Type IB: When a Normally Closed (NC) contact is used, the local clear total function is disabled and a clear total is only possible with the external reset command.

 Display (linearized) accumulated total

When the SELECT/ key is pressed, total and accumulated total are shown. The accumulated total cannot be reset. The value will count up to 99,999,999,999. The unit and number of decimals are shown according to the settings for the total.

 Low-battery alarm

Page 11

UNIT 11

This setting is used to select the engineering unit for the indication of the total, the accumulated total and the pulse output.

When you change the engineering unit , you must recalculate and reprogram the span for the (accumulated) total. When you recalculate and reprogram the span, the history for (accumulated) total is not correct anymore, because the (accumulated) total is not recalculated. For future reference, best practice is to make a note of the accumulated total before you program the recalculated span.

DECIMALS 12

This setting is used to set the amount of digits behind the decimal point for the (accumulated) total indication.

SPAN 13

This setting is used to set the span for the total. With the span, the flowmeter signal is converted to a quantity. The span for Total is based on the engineering unit (SETUP 11) and the flow rate per second at 20mA (or max signal). Enter the span with the decimals (decimals are not shown yet and are set in SETUP 14). The more accurate the span, the more accurate the functioning of the system will be.

0BExample 1: Calculating the Span.

Assume that the flowmeter generates 20mA at a rate of 652.31 USGAL per hour, the selected unit is barrels. There are 42 gallons in one barrel; so the rate is

652.31/42 is 15.53119 barrels/hour. This is 0.0043142 barrels/second, which is

the span. Enter for the span: "004314" and for the span decimals "6".

0BExample 2: Calculating the Span.

Assume that the flowmeter generates 20mA at a flow rate of 2,481.3 Liters/minute and the selected unit is "m3". The rate per second is 2,481.3÷60 is 41.355 L/sec. This is 0.041355 m3/sec., which is the span.

Enter for the span: "041355" and for the span decimals "6".

When you recalculate and enter a new span, the history for (accumulated) total is not correct anymore, because the (accumulated) total is not recalculated. for future reference. Best practice is to make a note of the accumulated total before you enter the recalculated span.

DECS SPAN 14

This setting is used to set the amount of digits behind the decimal point for the span.

UNIT 21

This setting is used to select the engineering unit for the indication of the flow rate.

Alteration of the engineering unit will have consequences for operator and setup values, they will not be automatically recalculated to the value of the new selected unit. The span has to be adapted as well; the calculation is not done automatically.

TIME 22

This setting is used to set the time unit for the flow rate calculation. Note that the flow rate is given in engineering unit/time unit, e.g. liters/minute (l/min).

When you change this setting, also recalculate and change the settings for the analog rate-min and analog rate-max.

DECIMALS 23

This setting is used to set the amount of digits behind the decimal point for the flow rate indication.

SPAN 24

This setting is used to set the span for the total. With the span, the flowmeter signal is converted to a quantity. The span for Total is based on the engineering unit (SETUP 21) and the flow rate per second at 20mA (or max signal). Enter the span with the decimals (decimals are not shown yet and are set in SETUP 25). The more accurate the span, the more accurate the functioning of the system will be.

DECS SPAN 25

This setting is used to set the amount of digits behind the decimal point for the span.

3.1.2. EXPLANATION OF SETUP-MENU 1 - TOTAL

3.1.3. EXPLANATION OF SETUP-MENU 2 - FLOW RATE

The settings for total and flow rate are entirely separate. In this way, different engineering units can be used for each e.g. cubic meters for total and liters for flow rate.

FW_F112A_v1702_02_EN

Page 12

FUNCTION 31

This setting can be set to display (linearized) total or (linearized) rate.

 When 'total' is selected, simultaneously, total is shown with the large

digits and flow rate with the smaller digits. When SELECT is pressed, the accumulated total is shown temporarily.

 When 'rate' is selected, only flow rate will be shown with the large

digits together with its measuring unit. When SELECT is pressed, the total and the accumulated total are shown temporarily.

LIGHT 32

The backlight brightness can be adjusted from 0% (off) to 100% (full brightness) in steps of 20%. When the F112-A is only loop powered, the backlight is disabled. An external power supply is required to supply the backlight.

LCD NEW 41

The calculation of the display-information influences the power consumption significantly. When the application does not require a fast display refresh rate, it is strongly advised to select a slow refresh rate. Please understand that NO information will be lost; every pulse will be counted and the output signals will be generated in the normal way. At a key press, the display refresh rate will switch to FAST for 30 seconds. When 'OFF' is selected, the display goes off after 30 seconds after the last key press. The display temporarily comes on after a key press.

Example battery life-time with a coil pick-up:

 FAST update: about 2 years;  1 sec update: about 5 years.

BATTERY MODE 42

The F112-A has two modes: operational or shelf. After "shelf" has been selected, the F112-A can be stored for several years; it will not process the sensor signal; the display is switched off but all settings and totals are stored. In this mode, power consumption is extremely low.

To wake up the F112-A again, press the SELECT/ key two times.

FORMULA 51

The F112-A can process the (0)4-20mA signal in two ways: Interpolation or Square root:

 Interpolation: the signal is processed linear: R = S x I  Square root: for differential pressure: R = S √ I

where:

R = Rate: the calculated flow rate S = Span: the maximum flow rate at 20mA. The span is programmed with

setting 24 for flow rate and with setting 13 for total.

I = Input: the scaled analog value; in these formulas value 0 (zero) for

(0)4mA and value 1 (one) for 20mA.

FILTER 52

The analog output signal of a sensor represents the actual temperature. This signal is measured several times a second. The value measured is a "snap-shot" of the real temperature as it will be fluctuating. With the help of this digital filter a stable and accurate reading can be obtained while the filter level can be set to a desired value. The filter principal is based on three input values: the filter level (01-99), the last measured analog value and the last average value. The higher the filter level, the longer the response time on a value change will be.

CUT-OFF 53

To ignore e.g. leakage of the flow or vibration, a low-flow cut-off can be set as percentage over the full range of 16mA (or 20mA / 10V). When the analog value is less than the programmed percentage, with this setting, the flow rate will be set to zero. The cut-off value can be programmed is the range 0.0 - 99.9%.

3.1.4. EXPLANATION OF SETUP-MENU 3 - DISPLAY

3.1.5. EXPLANATION OF SETUP-MENU 4 - POWER MANAGEMENT

When used with the internal battery option (type PB/PC), the user can expect reliable measurement over a long period of time. The F112-A has several smart power management functions to extend the battery life time significantly. Two of these functions can be set.

CALIB-LO 54

This setting is used to calibrate the input value for (0)4mA as the signal from the flowmeter might not be exact 4.0 mA (or 0.0 mA) at flow rate zero. This function will measure the real output value at flow zero.

Be very sure that the offered signal is correct before the calibration is executed as this function has major influences on the accuracy of the system!

After pressing PROG, three settings can be selected:  CALIB: with this setting, the input will be calibrated with the actual

"(0)4mA" value. After pressing enter, CAL SET will be shown as soon as the calibration is completed. From that moment, the analog value must be more than the calibrated value before the signal will be processed.

 DEFAULT: with this setting, the manufactures value is re-installed.  CAL SET: to select the last calibrated value.

CALIB-HI 55

This setting is used to calibrate the input value for 20mA as the signal from the flowmeter might not be exact 20.0 mA at maximum flow rate. This function will measure the real output value at maximum flow rate.

Be very sure that the offered signal is correct before the calibration is executed as this function has major influences on the accuracy of the system!

After pressing PROG, three settings can be selected:  CALIB: with this setting, the input will be calibrated with the actual

"20mA" value. After pressing enter, CAL SET will be shown as soon as the calibration is completed. From that moment, the analog value must be less than the calibrated value for a reliable measurement.

 DEFAULT: with this setting, the manufactures value is re-installed.  CAL SET: to select the last calibrated value.

3.1.7. EXPLANATION OF SETUP MENU 6 - 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 flow rate, 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 percentage of the signal and a Meter Factor (MF) must be entered. The lowest percentage and MF you enter will be valid from (0)4mA. The highest percentage and MF will be valid till 20mA. It is advised to enter the percentages in increasing order, however it is not necessary.

Please have a look at following example to understand the calculation and the method of linearization:

FW_F112A_v1702_02_EN

Page 14

FREQUENCY / M-FACTOR 61 TO 6F

The percentage is shown at the bottom line of the display. With value 0%, the M-Factor is disabled. The M-Factor (MF) is shown at the top-line of the display. The minimum value to be entered is 0.000001 and the maximum value is 9.999999.

The MF is mostly a figure around 1.000000, like 0.945354 or 1.132573 and always has six decimals, but the decimal separator is not shown.

LINEARIZE 6G

This setting is used to enable or disable the linearization function.

OUTPUT 71

If the analog output is not used, select disable to minimize the power consumption (e.g. save battery life-time).

Option AP: When a power supply is available but the output is disabled, a

3.5mA signal will be generated.

RATE-MIN 72

Enter here the flow rate at which the output should generate the minimum signal (0)4mA or 0V - in most applications at zero flow. The number of decimals shown depend upon setup 23. The engineering units/time (e.g. L/min) are dependent upon setup 21 and 22.

RATE-MAX 73

Enter here the flow rate at which the output should generate the maximum signal (20mA or 10V) - in most applications at maximum flow. The number of decimals shown depend upon setup 23. The engineering units/time (e.g. L/min) are dependent upon setup 21 and 22.

CUT-OFF 74

To ignore leakage of the flow for example, a low flow cut-off can be set as a percentage of the full range of 16mA, 20mA or 10V. When the flow is less than the required rate, the current will be the minimum signal (0)4mA or 0V.

Example: Calculate the cut-off. Rate-min: 0L/min [4mA], Rate-max: 100 L/min [16mA], Cut-off: 2%

Required rate [L/min]: (rate-max - rate-min)*cut-off: (100-0)*2%=2.0L/min Output [mA]: rate-min + (rate-max*cut-off): 4+(16*2%)=4.32mA

3.1.8. EXPLANATION OF SETUP MENU 7 - ANALOG

A linear 4-20mA signal (option AB: 0-20mA or option AU: 0-10V) output signal is generated that represents the flow rate.

The settings for the flow rate influence the analog output directly. The relationship between the flow rate and the analog output is set with the following settings.

FW_F112A_v1702_02_EN

Page 15

TUNE-MIN 75

The (0)4mA or 0V value can be tuned precisely with this setting. The initial minimum analog output value is (0)4mA or 0V. However, this value might differ slightly due to ambient influences such as temperature for example.

Before tuning the signal, be sure that the analog signal is not being used for any application!

After pressing PROG, the current will be about 4mA (0mA or 0V). The current can be increased / decreased with the arrow keys and is directly active. Press ENTER to store the new value.

If required, you can program the analog output 'up-side-down'. The (0)4mA or 0V represents the maximum flow rate and the 20mA or 10V represents the minimum flow rate.

TUNE-MAX 76

The 20mA or 10V value can be tuned precisely with this setting. The initial maximum analog output value is 20mA or 10V However, this value might differ slightly due to ambient influences such as temperature for example.

Before tuning the signal, be sure that the analog signal is not being used for any application!

After pressing PROG, the current will be about 20mA or 10V. The current can be increased / decreased with the arrow keys and is directly active. Press ENTER to store the new value.

If required, you can program the analog output 'up-side-down'. The (0)4mA or 0V represents the maximum flow rate and the 20mA or 10V represents the minimum flow rate.

FILTER 77

This setting is used to stabilize the output signal. With the help of this digital filter a more stable but less actual representation of the flow rate can be obtained. The filter principal is based on three input values: the filter level (01-99), the last calculated flow rate and the last average value. The higher the filter level, the longer the response time on a value change will be.

WIDTH 81

The pulse width determines the time that the output will be active; in other words the pulse duration. Value “zero” will disable the pulse output. The pulse signal always has a 50% duty cycle, hence the minimum time between the pulses is equal to the pulse width setting. If the frequency should go out of range – when the flow rate increases for example – an

internal buffer will be used to “store the missed pulses”: As soon as the flow rate slows down, the buffer will be “emptied”.

It might be that pulses will be missed due to a buffer-overflow, so it is advised to program this setting within its range!

DECIMALS 82

This setting is used to set the amount of digits behind the decimal point for the amount.

AMOUNT 83

A pulse will be generated every time a certain quantity is added to the total. Enter this quantity here while taking the decimals for pulse into account.

3.1.9 EXPLANATION OF SETUP MENU 8 - PULSE

One transistor or mechanic relay output is available as a scaled pulse output according to the total.

4.4.6. SENSOR SUPPLY For type PB/PC; PX; AP: There is no real sensor supply out available. Only a limited power supply

is available. This power supply MAY NOT be used to supply the flowmeters electronics, converters etc. as it will not provide adequate sustained power ! All energy used by the flowmeters pick-up will directly influence the battery life-time. 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). The sensor supply is fixed: 1.2V DC or 3V DC (set by the firmware).

For type PD; PF; PM: It is possible to supply the sensor with different voltages. You can set the voltage with the switches. Internal power is only applicable for low power sensors (Coil, Reed). External power is only available when the main external power supply is connected. The sensor supply voltage is selectable: 1.2; 3; 8.2; 12 or 24V DC.

6. MAINTENANCE

6.1. GENERAL DIRECTIONS

The F112-P 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 F112-P in such a way that no condensation will occur, e.g. to put a dose of desiccant (drying agent) inside the enclosure just before closing it. Furthermore, it is required to replace the desiccant periodically as advised by its supplier.

Battery life-time:

It is influenced by several issues :

 Type of sensor (read chapter 3): NPN and PNP inputs consume more energy than coil inputs;  Input frequency: the higher the frequency, the shorter the battery life-time;  Analog output signal; be sure that an external power supply is connected or that the function is

disabled if not in use; or else it will have a major influence on the battery life-time;

 Display update: fast display update uses significantly more power;  Pulse output and communications;  Low temperatures; the available power will be less due to battery chemistry.

It is strongly advised to disable the unused functions.

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 Span and linearization alterations.

 The indication for low-battery.  Clean window and enclosure only with a lint-free cleaning cloth made damp with a mild soap

solution.. Do not use any aggressive solvents as these might damage the coating.

APPENDIX B: PROBLEM SOLVING

In this appendix, several problems are included that can occur when the F112-A is going to be installed or while it is in operation.

Analog output does not function properly:

Check:

 is the analog output enabled?  are the flow-levels programmed correctly?  connection of the external power-supply according to the specification.

Pulse output does not function:

Check:  Pulse per “x” quantity (amount); is the value programmed reasonable and will the maximum

output be under 20Hz?

 Amount; is the external device able to recognize the selected amount?

Flow rate displays "0 / zero" while there is flow (total is counting):

Check:  are the Span and time unit correct?

Linearization does not work:

Check:

 is the function enabled?  are all M-Factors and the frequency entered correctly?

The password is unknown:

If the password is not 1234, 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 "select button" several times to display the error code. When multiple errors arise at the same time, their error codes are added and their sum is shown. The digital [d] codes are:

Not recoverable by the end user:

[d] 0 = no error; [d] 1 = display error; [d] 2 = data-storage error; [d] 3 = error 1 + error 2 simultaneously; [d] 4 = initialization error. [d] 10 = linearization error (calculated M-Factor out of range)

For a not recoverable error, keep the error code at hand and contact your supplier.

APPENDIX C: COMMUNICATION VARIABLES

GENERAL

The product is fitted with the Modbus communication protocol and can be equipped with various physical interfaces like RS485 and RS232 (please see device datasheet for available options). 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 the Modbus PDU addresses in a decimal format, followed by its hexadecimal representation (0x0000). When the PLC address range is required (4x references are typically used by PLCs), please add a value of 40001 to the Modbus PDU address. E.g. reading the serial number of the product with PLC-based addressing means: 165 + 40001 = register 40166.

The variables that consist of a multiple register must always read/write in 1 single action!

Refer to the illustration:

For this example it is assumed that the variable accumulated total has 3 registers (words) with address 566, 567 and 568. When a transmission is done, register 566, which acts as the MSW, arrives first with bit 15 which is the MSB of the lowest addressed word, but is also the MSB (bit 47) of the complete variable that represents the Accumulated total. Although most Modbus Masters will support variables that span 2 registers, variables spanning more registers sometimes require you to manually calculate the resulting value.

For additional information regarding using your Modbus device, please read our ’General Modbus

Communication Protocol’ and ‘Modbus troubleshooting guide’ that are available through our website

or your distributor.

Runtime variables

Reading flow rate, total or accumulated total: The returned values are given including the

decimals and represent the actual value. The given value may differ from the value that is shown 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/flow rate in a single write action. Writing any other value will result in the reply of an error message because the registers of total/flow rate are during operation read-only.

The linearization table is an INDEXED variable. Reading and writing the entries of the linearization tables is done by first selecting the entry through

the index. Valid values 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 percentage part, the three most significant bytes (MSB of PDU address 1025 and PDU address 1026) contain the M-factor part.

Valid range for the percentage is (0)4-20mA.. A value of 0 for percenatge means that entry is disabled.

Valid range for the M-factor 0.000000 to 9.999999.
