1.4.4 Local Mounting

The XMT1000 accuracy is affected by the flowcell location in the process piping and on the orientation of the transducers. Thus, in addition to accessibility for maintenance, adhere to the following installation guidelines:

• Locate the flowcell so that there are at least 10 pipe diameters of straight, undisturbed flow upstream and

5 pipe diameters of straight, undisturbed flow downstream from the measurement point (see Figure 4 below). Undisturbed flow means avoiding sources of turbulence in the fluid (e.g., valves, flanges, expansions, elbows, etc.), avoiding swirl, and avoiding cavitation.

Figure 4: Minimum Straight Run Pipe Requirements

• Locate the transducers on a common axial plane along the pipe. Also, locate them on the side of the pipe

instead of on the top or the bottom, because the top of the pipe tends to accumulate gas and the bottom tends to accumulate sediment. Either condition will cause unwanted attenuation of the ultrasonic signals. There is no similar restriction with vertical pipes, as long as the fluid flow is upward to prevent free falling of the fluid or a less than full pipe (see Figure 5 below).

Figure 5: Good and Bad Flowcell/Transducer Orientations

CAUTION! Do not place thermal insulation on or around the transducers, the junction boxes, or the

meter electronics. The transducer and junction box act as a heat sink that protects the transducer

PanaFlow™ XMT1000 User’s Manual 5

from high and low temperatures.

Chapter 1. Installation

1.4.5 Remote Mounting

The standard XMT1000 enclosure is a powder-coated, aluminum, IP67 explosion-proof enclosure. Typically, the enclosure is mounted as close as possible to the transducers. When choosing a site for a remote-mount installation, which is recommended for process temperatures exceeding 150°C, make sure the location permits easy access to the enclosure for programming, maintenance and service.

Attention European Customers! For compliance with the European Union’s Low Voltage Directive, this unit requires an external power disconnect device such as a switch or circuit breaker. The disconnect device must be marked as such, clearly visible, directly accessible, and located within

1.8 m (6 ft) of the unit.

1.4.6 Cable Lengths

Locate the XMT1000 as close as possible to the transducers. The maximum distance from the transducers for remote mounting of the XMT1000 is 1000 ft (300 m) using RG-62 coaxial cable or equivalent. If longer distances are required, consult the factory for assistance.

1.4.7 Transducer Cables

When installing the transducer cables, always observe established standard practices for the installation of electrical cables. Do not route transducer cables alongside high amperage AC power lines or any other cables that could cause electrical interference. Also, protect the transducer cables and connections from the weather and corrosive atmospheres, and be sure to follow the manufacturer's installation guidelines if cable glands are provided.

2.2 Using the Magnetic Keypad (cont.)

Above the display, the blue light is for power indication and the red light is for system health indication. Once system power is applied, the blue light stays on until power is lost. The red light blinks when the system is in error. When the red light is off - the system is operating without error.

The six keys on the magnetic keypad are used to program the XMT1000:

• [√] - confirms the choice of a specific option and data entry within that option

• [] - enables users to exit from a specific option without entering unconfirmed data

• [] and [] - enable users to highlight a specific window in the display option or to scroll through a list of

options (parameters, letters, and numbers, 0-9 as well as the negative sign and decimal point) in a menu

• [] and [] - enable users to scroll to a specific option, among choices in an option, or to a character in a text

entry.

When the XMT1000 is powered up, the initial screen display appears, followed by meter boot up, then by a display of measurement parameters.

As a guide to help follow the programming instructions in this chapter, the XMT1000 menu maps have been reproduced in Figure 8 on page 17 through Figure 15 on page 24.

IMPORTANT: If the keypad has not been pressed for 10 minutes, the XMT1000 exits the Keypad Program and returns

to displaying measurements. Because changes can only be retained after the user confirms them, the meter discards any unconfirmed configuration changes.

2.3 Passcodes

The default passcodes for the XMT1000 flow transmitter are:

• Default Operator Password = 111111

• Default Admin Password = 111111

IMPORTANT: The default Admin password must be changed before the meter is placed into service, and the new

Admin password must be properly secured. Unauthorized access to the Admin menus may result in

programming changes that have a negative impact on the performance and operation of the meter.

2.4 Glossary of Terms

Backlight: The LCD display backlight has three user-adjustable parameters. The brightness, the contrast, and the

•

length of inactivity which triggers automatic shutdown can be individually set within available limits.

• Error Handling: The manner in which various XMT1000 outputs respond to automatically generated system errors

can be set by the user by selecting the options from a drop-down list.

• Frequency Output: In frequency mode, the digital output generates a pulse with a frequency that is proportional to

the magnitude of the measured flow parameter (e.g., 10 Hz = 1ft

/hr).

• HART: HART is a serial communication protocol used for industrial automation. Its main advantage is that it can

communicate over 4-20 mA analog instrumentation current loops over the pair of wires used by the analog only host system.

• K-Factor: To calibrate the XMT1000 against a reference value, the raw flow velocity readings may need to have a

correction factor applied. This K-Factor can be a single constant or a table of K-Factor vs. Velocity values.

• Loop Powered: Loop powered analog devices use the power provided by the meter itself rather than by an external

power supply. This results in a simple 2-wire connection between the meter and the external device.

• Mass Flow: Mass flow is the mass of fluid passing the measurement point in a given period of time. This value is

calculated by the meter from the measured flow velocity and the programmed pipe and fluid parameters.

• Modbus: Modbus is a serial communication protocol developed by Modicon

controllers. It is a method used for transmitting information over serial lines between electronic devices.

for use with its programmable logic

• Pulse Output: In pulse/totalizer mode, the digital output generates a pulse with a width corresponding to one unit

of the measured flow parameter (e.g., 1 pulse = 1 ft

• Reynolds Correction: When turned on, a factor based on the kinematic viscosity and the flow rate of the fluid is

applied to all measurements. Reynolds correction should be On for most applications.

• Serial Port Settings: When the XMT1000 serial port is connected to an external serial device, communication

between the two devices only occur if the serial port settings of the two devices match. These settings include: baud rate, data bits, stop bits, and parity.

• Special Transducer: If your transducer has no number engraved on the body, select SPECIAL in the Transducer

Number menu.

• Tw: The TW parameter is the time the transducer signal spends traveling through the transducer body and the

transducer cable. This value must be subtracted from the total signal transit time to calculate the actual signal transit time only through the fluid.

• Totalizer: The totalizer accumulates a running total of the amount of fluid which passes the measurement point

between specified start and stop times.

• Tracking Window: The tracking window is used to detect the receive signal when you are unsure of the fluid

sound speed. For the XMT1000 flow transmitter, the Tracking Window is always ON.

• Zero Cutoff: When the measured flow rate is below the zero cutoff value, the display is forced to 0.00. This is to

avoid rapid fluctuations in the reading whenever the flow rate is close to zero.
