NOTE: Battery shelf life is rated at 10 years by manufacturer Life expectancy based on rated battery capacity at 20°C

The above table is shown with pulse output inactive.

Use of pulse output shortens battery life.

Example: A pulse output of 0.06 sec. duration, once per second, would derate the battery life by 20%.

Internal Switch Debounce Filter: 0 to 40 Hz NOTE: Sustained contact closure will shorten

battery life.

RESET INPUT (contact closure to common) Internal Pullup Resistor: 100 KΩ to +3.6 VDC High (logic 1): Open or 4-30 VDC

Low (logic 0): Less Than .5 VDC Minimum On : 25 msec

NOTE: Sustained contact closure will shorten battery life.

K-FACTOR

Range: 0.001 to 99999999

Decimal Point Locations: XXXX.XXXX to XXXXXXXX

20 Point Linearization Option

This feature allows the user to enter 20 different frequencies with 20 different corresponding K-Factors to linearize non linear signals.

ANALOG OUTPUT:

Type: 4-20 mA follows rate display, Two wire hookup Accuracy: 0.025% Full Scale at 20° C

Temperature Drift: 50 ppm/°C Typical

Reverse Polarity Protected

Update Rate: 8 times/second

NOTE: The IT 300N uses the 4-20 mA loop power as its primary power source when this option is used. The battery is still required for standby battery operation.

DATA STORAGE:

Setup Information: Stored in fl ash memory

Totalizer: Stored in battery backed RAM but can be saved to fl ash memory by operator for recall after battery change out.

*Slow input pulse rates, large delay setting and internal math operations may delay the update rate of information.

BATTERY INSTALLATION and REPLACEMENT

Battery Installation:

All meter mounted confi gured IT 300N models are shipped without the batteries installed. When using external BATPACK, mount within 12" and plug connector into 3 position square posts (see Fig 1). Polarity is not a concern because center is common.

To install the batteries, begin by locating the battery holder. This requires opening the enclosure cover and removing the IT 300N to expose the battery holder.

The plus terminal of the battery is marked with a (+) symbol stamped into the battery holder. Be sure to install the batteries correctly.

Install batteries to begin setup procedure. See Programming Flowchart to setup desired operating parameters.

Battery Replacement:

The IT 300N has a battery monitor feature which illuminates when the lithium battery voltage approaches its end of life. A descriptor, “BAT”, illuminates when the battery voltage falls below this predetermined value. The low battery detector operates correctly with all power options.

The battery, or batteries, should be replaced within several weeks of the fi rst occurrence of low battery warning, “BAT”. Left unattended, the unit may become inaccurate, cease to operate or malfunction.

Before replacing the battery(ies), Press the (left arrow) key to save the totalizer. The display will show "SAVE TOTAL". This will save the current total value and the total will resume from this value when the new battery(ies) is(are) installed. NOTE: If the display starts to fl ash after the "SAvEtotAL" message times out, press the "E" (enter) key. If the message "E FLASH" is displayed, then there was not enough power left to save the setup and totalizer to fl ash memory. At this point you must record the totalizer and setup information and re-enter the setup data after the new battery(ies) is(are) installed.

Install new battery(ies) as described above.
