2. GENERAL

Using the most advanced electronic tehcnologies, this digital instrument has been developed specifically to meet the most demanding flow measurement applications in petroleum products receiving facilities where accuracy is the prime requirement. In response to the liquid flowrate and temperature information arriving from the sensing terminal, such as a flowmeter, it totalizes the flow while implementing meter error and temperature corrections. An analog output and instant flowrate (corrected for meter error and temperature) output are additional provisions.

2.1 Features

(1) Incorporated capabilities to calibrate meter error for viscosity and flow velocity (viscosity correction),
to correct by volumetric conversion factor (temperature correction), and to display the total flow readings readily permit the application engineer to build a petroleum products measurement system with this single instrument.
(2) Changing the meter factor, ranges of temperature, or other parameters, of the companion
flowmeter is simple by keystrokes on the front-panel keypad, or by inserting an IC card into the slot.
(3) Built around a microprocessor, the instrument carries out calculations entirely in digital signal
processing circuits to achieve a high degree of accuracy and reliability.
(4) Variables, such as temperature and totals, can be reviewed on command with the front panel
keypad, whether or not calculation is in progress.
(5) Viscosity and density settings are continuously adjustable. Also, by switching the oil kind, the
instrument is compatible with three different kinds of oils. (6) Remote viscosity and density read/write through the communication link is acceptable. (7) A nonvolatile memory (E2PROM) retains all parameters and variables. Variables are resettable
following a power cycle or reset if so configured.

4. WIRING

(See the "Wiring Guidelines" in the instruction manual of the companion pulse generator.)

4.1 Field Wiring Cables

(1) Use electrostatically shielded, polyethylene insulated, vinyl sheathed control cables (CEVS, 1.25 to 2
mm, 2-conductor or 3-conductor), or equivalent, for input signal cables from the flowmeter.
For output signal cables, use insulated vinyl sheathed cables (CVV, CVS ... JIS C 3401). (2) Ground the end of shield wire to "G" terminal of the instrument. At the sensor end, leave the end of
shield wire unconnected.

4.2 Wiring Connections

(1) Field wiring through a conduit is recommended.
NOTE: In routing field wiring, use a separate conduit for power cable from other signal cables to
eliminate the possibility of stray current pickup.
(2) Separate field wiring from other power lines and power circuits to minimize the possibility of inductive
interference. (3) Using crimp-type lugs for wiring, ensure good electrical connections.
Terminals are found on the back of the instrument (Fig. 4.1).

4.3 Description of Terminal Blocks for External Connections

Terminal blocks for external connections (TB1, TB2, and TB3) are found on the back of the instrument as shown in Fig. 4.1. Terminal identification appears in Table 4.1 while terminal connections appear in Table 4.2.

7.5 Flow Calculation Formula

(1) Total flow corrected for viscosity
Total flow corrected for viscosity is expressed as Qμf = Q0×E1×E2 where E1 : Meter error correction factor dependent on viscosity and flow velocity E2 : Meter error correction factor dependent on flowmeter body's volumetric expansion (3α) Hence, the correction factor for correcting viscosity errors is "E1・E2" (overall meter error).
(2) Total flow corrected for viscosity and temperature
Total flow corrected for viscosity and temperature is expressed as Qμρ= Q0×E1×E2×V.C.F where E1 : Meter error correction factor dependent on viscosity and flow velocity E2 : Meter error correction factor dependent on flowmeter body's volumetric expansion (3α) V.C.F : Volumetric conversion factor Hence, the corrected factor for viscosity and temperature correction is "E1・E2・V.C.F".

8. PREPARATIONAL CHECKS AND OPERATION

8.1 Preparation Before Operation

(1) Ensure that the instrument and related equipment are correctly installed and wired with no place left
unfinished.
WARNING: Make sure to see that the power terminals are connected to a power
source of the rated voltage. Applying a power source of incorrect voltage could ruin your instrument.
(2) Supply power to this instrument and make certain to see that the front panel display is illuminated.
The display will remain unilluminated for one second after power on, which however is by no means any indication of fault.

8.2 Preparational Checks

CAUTION: Allow a warmup period for 60 minutes or so after you turn on the power.
Verify that the instrument does not operate with no fluid flow.
How to Check
(1) Couple sources of simulated temperature and pressure signals. (2) Using the shift keys, select menu items and verify the information displayed.
See the KEY OPERATION MANUAL.
(3) Inject a simulated input pulse train or density signal representing the type of the companion pulse
generator.
(4) Select display menu items of the total mass flow and total calorific flow, and make sure that incoming
pulses are being accumulated. Also, verify that pulse output and analog output are properly generated.
(5) Remove the simulated pulse input and compare the obtained readings on the display with
corresponding theoretical values. Remember that this instrument is not equipped with a counter to accumulate incoming pulses. Hence, an external counter is required.
8.3 Operation
CAUTION: Allow a warmup period for 60 minutes or so after you turn on the power.
(1) Select your power reset or non-reset (accumulated total) option.

11. BEHAVIOR IN ERRATIC CONDITIONS
(1) Erratic A/D Converter
If, following energization of A/D converter circuit, the conversion process is not completed within the specified time period, it is found that the circuit has a problem. At this point, temperature and pressure fallback values are used for calculation.
(2) Temperature and Pressure Input Out of Range
If the input exceeds the high limit or falls below the low limit, its default fallback value is used for calculation.
(3) Analog Output Overflow
A full scale output is produced across the analog output terminals.
