The ST75 and ST75V (Vortab) can be specied with integral or remote electronics. The ow element has a serial number etched into the side
of the HEX as shown on Figure A. In addition, the enclosure tag also shows serial and model numbers. The associated transmitter circuit card
has a serial number noted on the board as shown in Figure B. The ow sensor and transmitter circuit have been calibrated as a matched set
and should be paired together in service unless otherwise approved by a factory technician.
Flow Direction Alignment
All sensor elements have a ow arrow indicator marked on the element assembly at the reference HEX at. These ow elements have been
calibrated in a particular direction and are designed to be used in service with the ow arrow going in the same direction as ow in the pipe
stream. The ow element has been calibrated directly in the pipe tee or tube tee with careful consideration for orientation and insertion depth.
Removal from the tee section while physically possible is not recommended unless authorized by a factory technician.

Recommended Straight Run
To optimize ow meter system performance, FCI recommends installation with a minimum of 20 diameters upstream straight run and 10 pipe
diameters of downstream straight run. Where straight run limitations signicantly reduce the available pipe diameters, FCI uses ow conditioners to produce a transferable ow prole from the calibration installation to actual eld installations. FCI’s proprietary AVAL software is
available to make ow meter installation evaluations where straight run limitations are considered. See Figure C for recommended installation.

Instrument Wiring
Before opening the instrument to connect power and signal observe the following ESD precautions:
Use a wrist band or heel strap with a 1 megohm resistor connected to ground. If the instrument is in the shop setting, use a static conductive
mat on the work table or oor with a 1 megohm resistor connected to ground. Connect the instrument to ground. Apply antistatic agents such
as Static Free made by Chemtronics (or equivalent) to hand tools to be used on the instrument. Keep high static producing items away from
the instrument.
The above precautions are minimum requirements. The complete use of ESD precautions can be found in the U.S. Dept. of Defense Handbook 263.
Warning: Only qualied personnel are to wire or test this instrument. The operator assumes all responsibility for safe practices
while wiring and troubleshooting.
Install an input power disconnect
switch and fuse near the instrument to interrupt power during installation and maintenance.
Operator must have power disconnected before wiring.
See the “Specic Conditions of Use” and “Safety Instructions” sections in Appendix A for use of the ST75/ST75V (AC and DC
versions) in Hazardous Areas Category II (Zone 1).
Input Power
The ST75/ST75V is available with both VDC and VAC input power congurations. Customers selecting VDC input power will have a VDC
input board only. Similarly, the VAC power board is supplied only with VAC powered units. In addition, both boards are marked for either
AC or DC power. Only connect the power specied on the wiring module as shown on Figures D and E respectively. Both VAC and VDC
inputs require a Gnd wire to be connected. Input power terminal blocks accept 14-26 AWG wire.
Make sure that power is OFF before wiring the instrument. Pull the power and signal output wires through the port, using care not to damage
wires. FCI recommends using crimp lugs on the output wires to ensure proper connection with the terminal strip. Connect the output wires as
shown on Figures D and E. Note that when the 4-20 mA outputs are used simultaneously, a single return lead is used.
Analog Output
4-20 mA: The instrument is provided with two 4-20 mA outputs. By default Output 1 is congured for ow and Output 2 is congured for
temperature. Terminal blocks accept 14-28 AWG wire, 500 ohms max load per output.

Menu Control and Organization
Most entries require at least two keystrokes; a capital letter and the [ENTER] key, or one or more numbers and the [ENTER] key. All user
entries begin at the input mode prompt “>”, except when the instrument is in the Main Function Mode (just press the desired function letter
and [ENTER] to make an entry).
Backspaces are made using the backspace [BKSP] key. Some entries are case sensitive between numbers and letters. Be sure the SHIFT key
is pressed to indicate the correct case. A square after the prompt caret indicates the FC88 is in lower case. A slightly raised rectangle in the
same spot indicates the FC88 is in the upper case.
It is recommended that the FC88 be plugged into the instrument before power is applied. If the FC88 is plugged in while the instrument power is on and the FC88 does not respond, press [ENTER]. If there is still no response press [N] or cycle the power.
Note: The Zero and Span may be changed from the original calibration, provided the new values are within the original calibrat
ed range; i.e., if the original calibration was 1 to 100 SCFM (4-20 mA), the new zero (4 mA) must be equal to or greater than 1
SCFM, and the new span (20 mA) must be equal to or less than 100 SCFM.
Some entries require a Factory pass code. If this occurs contact FCI Field Service to continue programming the instrument. The instrument
will prompt the user when this is necessary. Do not change any parameters that require this code unless there is an absolute understanding of
the instrument’s operation. The user cannot exit some routines unless all entries are completed or the power is cycled.
The top level of the menu is shown in “Table 5. ST75/ST75V List of Single Letter Commands” on page 23. Enter the command letter
mnemonic as listed in the tables below and in
Appendix B to run a command. Exit a command at any time by entering “Q” [ENTER] in the
menus D, K, V, W, or Z.

Maintenance
The FCI instrument requires little maintenance. There are no moving parts or mechanical parts subject to wear in the instrument. The sensor
assembly, which is exposed to the process media, is composed of 316 SS and Hastelloy C.
Without detailed knowledge of the environmental parameters of the application surroundings and process media, FCI cannot make specic
recommendations for periodic inspection, cleaning, or testing procedures. However, some suggested general guidelines for maintenance steps
are offered below. Use operating experience to establish the frequency of each type of maintenance.
Calibration
Periodically verify the calibration of the output and recalibrate if necessary. FCI recommends every 18 months at a minimum.
Note: Thirty (30) second warm-up required before calibration check.
Electrical Connections
Periodically inspect cable connections on terminal strips and terminal blocks. Verify that terminal connections are tight and physically sound
with no sign of corrosion.
Remote Enclosure
Verify that the moisture barriers and seals protecting the electronics in the local enclosure is adequate and that no moisture is entering the
enclosure.
Electrical Wiring
FCI recommends occasional inspection of the system’s interconnecting cable, power wiring and ow element wiring on a “common sense”
basis related to the application environment. Periodically inspect the conductors for corrosion and check the cable insulation for signs of
deterioration.
Flow Element Connections
Verify that all seals are performing properly and that there is no leakage of the process media. Check for deterioration of the gaskets and
environmental seals used.

are a matched set and cannot be operated independently of each other.
Check the Instrument Installation
Verify correct mechanical and electrical installation. Verify the ow element is mounted at least 20 diameters downstream and 10 diameters
upstream from any bends or interference in the process pipe or duct.
Check for Moisture
Check for moisture on the ow transmitter. Moisture may cause intermittent operation. Check for moisture on the ow element. If a compo
nent of the process media is near its saturation temperature it may condense on the ow element. Place the ow element where the process
media is well above the saturation temperature of any of the process gases.
Check Application Design Requirements
Application design problems may occur with rst time application instruments, although the design should also be checked on instruments
that have been in operation for some time. If the application design does not match eld conditions, errors occur.
1. Review the application design with plant operation personnel and plant engineers.
2. Ensure that plant equipment such as pressure and temperature instruments conform to the actual conditions.
3. Verify operating temperature, operating pressure, line size, and gas medium.

Verify Standard Versus Actual Process Conditions
The ow meter measures the mass ow rate. The mass ow rate is the mass of the gas owing through a pipe per time. Other ow meters,
such as an orice plate or a pitot tube, measure the volumetric ow rate. The volumetric ow rate is the volume of gas per time. If the readings displayed do not agree with another instrument, some calculations may be necessary before comparing them. To calculate the mass ow
rate, the volumetric ow rate, and the pressure and temperature, the point of measurement must be known. Use the following equation to
calculate the mass ow rate (Standard Volumetric Flow rate) for the other instrument:

Calibration Parameters Verication
The instrument uses a set of predetermined calibration parameters to process ow signals. Most of these parameters should not change. A data
package shipped with the instrument (typically on a CD-ROM) contains the ST75/ST75V Delta R Data Sheet. This contains the calibration
parameters stored in the ow transmitter at the factory. To verify that these parameters have not changed, complete the following:
1. Identify the appropriate Delta R data sheets by serial number of the instrument.
2. Press [D] [ENTER] to examine each of the parameters. The [ENTER] key allows scrolling one message at a time. Use Table 4
below to record actual instrument parameters. Compare with the Delta R data sheet’s ST75/ST75V parameters.
