1.1 Using the Magnetic Flowmeter Safely

WARNING
(1) Installation
• Installation of the magnetic flowmeter must be performed by expert engineer or skilled person­nel. No operator shall be permitted to perform procedures relating to installation.
• The magnetic flowmeter is a heavy instrument. Be careful that no damage is caused to person­nel through accidentally dropping it, or by exerting excessive force on the magnetic flowmeter. When moving the magnetic flowme­ter, always use a trolley and have at least two people carry it.
• When the magnetic flowmeter is processing hot fluids, the instrument itself may become ex­tremely hot. Take sufficient care not to get burnt.
• Where the fluid being processed is a toxic substance, avoid contact with the fluid and avoid inhaling any residual gas, even after the instrument has been taken off the piping line for maintenance and so forth.
• Do not apply excessive weight, for example, a person stepping on the magnetic flowmeter.
• All procedures relating to installation must comply with the electrical code of the country where it is used.
(2) Wiring
• The wiring of the magnetic flowmeter must be performed by expert engineer or skilled person­nel. No operator shall be permitted to perform procedures relating to wiring.
• When connecting the wiring, check that the supply voltage is within the range of the voltage specified for this instrument before connecting the power cable. In addition, check that no voltage is applied to the power cable before connecting the wiring.
• The protective grounding must be connected securely at the terminal with the mark to avoid danger to personnel.
(3) Operation
• When opening the cover, wait for more than 10 minutes after turning off the power. Only expert engineer or skilled personnel are permitted to open the cover.

Once all wiring is complete, check the connec­tions before applying power to the instrument. Improper arrangements or wiring may cause a unit malfunction or damage.

4.1 Wiring Precautions

Be sure to observe the following precautions when wiring:
CAUTION
• In cases where the ambient temperature exceeds 50°C (122°F), use external heat­resistant wiring with a maximum allowable temperature of 70°C (158°F) or above.
• Do not connect cables outdoors in wet weather in order to prevent damage from condensation and to protect the insulation.
• Do not splice the cable between the flowtube terminal and the converter if it is too short. Replace the short cable with a cable that is the appropriate length.
• All the cable ends must be provided with round crimp-on terminals and be securely wired.
• The signal cables must be routed in separate steel conduit tubes 16 (JIS C 8305) or flexible conduit tubes 15 (JIS C 8309).
• Always route the power and output signal cables in separate steel conduit tubes, except when the power supply voltage is 24 V and four-core cables are used for wiring. Keep conduits or flexible tubes watertight using sealing tape.
• Ground the remote flowtube and the converter separately.
• Cover each shield of the signal cable with vinyl tube or vinyl tape to avoid contact between two shields or between a shield and a case.
• When waterproof glands or union equipped waterproof glands are used, avoid tightening the glands with an excessive torque.
• In case of 24V power supply version, it comes with a plug. Use this plug to cover the unused wiring port when wiring the instrument with only one, four-core cable.
• Be sure to turn power off before opening the cover.
• Before turning the power on, tighten the cover securely.
• The terminal box cover is locked by the special screw. In case of opening the terminal box cover, use the hexagonal wrench attached. For handling the locking screw, refer to Figure
4.4.1.
• Be sure to lock the cover by the special screw using the hexagonal wrench attached after installing the cover. For handling the locking screw, refer to Figure 4.4.12.
• Explosion protected types must be wired in accordance with specific requirement (and, in certain countries, legal regulations) in order to preserve the effectiveness of their explosion protected features.

CAUTION
• As crimp terminals A, B, SA, SB and C have their own electrical potentials, securely insulate them so as not to come in contact with one another.
• To prevent a shield from coming in contact with another shield or the case, cover each shield with a vinyl tube or wrap it in vinyl tape.

4. WIRING
Conductors A and B carry the signal from the electrodes, and C is at the potential of the liquid (signal common). Shields SA and SB are kept at the same potentials as the individual elec­trodes (these are actively driven shields.) This is done to reduce the effect of the distributed capacitance of the cable at long cable length. Note that, since the signals from the individual electrodes are impedance converted inside the converter, errors will result if they come in contact with any other component. Great care must be taken in the cable end treatment.

4.4.6 Wiring the Remote Flowtube with the AXFA14 Converter

CAUTION
Be sure to connect the protective grounding of the AXFA14 with a cable of 2mm2 or larger cross section in oder to avoid electrical shock to the operators and maintenance engineers and to prevent the influence of external noise. Connect the grounding wire to the mark. The grounding should satisfy Class D require­ments (ground resistance, 100 or less). In case of TIIS Flameproof type, the grounding should satisfy Class C requirements (ground resistance, 10 or less) or class A requirements (ground resistance, 10 or less). For explosion proof type except TIIS, follow the domestic electrical requirements as regulated in each country.
IMPORTANT
When optional code A (lighting protector) is selected, the ground should satisfy Class C requirements (grounding resistance, 10 or less).
• The protective grounding terminals are located on the inside and outside of the terminal area. Either terminal may be used.
• Use 600V vinyl insulation wires as the grounding wires.

4.4.7 Connecting to External Instru­ments
WARNING
Before wiring with external instruments, be sure to turn off the power supply for AXFA14 converter and any external instruments.
Pulse Output
IMPORTANT
• As this is a transistor contact (insulated type), give attention to proper voltage and polarity when wiring.
• Do not apply a voltage larger than 30V DC or a current larger than 0.2A in order to prevent damage to the instrument.
• When input filter constant of the electronic counter is large in relation to the pulse width, the signal will decrease and the count will not be accurate.
• If the input impedance of the electronic counter is large, an induction noise from the power supply may result in inaccurate counts. Use a shield cable or sufficiently reduce the input impedance of the electronic counter within the electromagnetic flowmeter pulse output specifi­cation range.
• The active pulse output (Optional code EM) cannot be used in conjunction with the standard pulse output.
• When the active pulse output (Optional code EM) is selected, do not be short-circuit between the DO+ and DO– terminals to avoid damaging the instrument.
• When the active pulse output (Optional code EM) is selected, the range of pulse rate must be set to 2 pps maximum.
• To avoid communication (BRAIN/ HART) failure, it is recommended to use the shield cable.
Connect the AXFA14 terminal to external instruments, giving attention to the following points.
For FOUNDATION Fieldbus protocol, please refer to IM 01E20F02-01E.

BASIC OPERATING PROCEDURES
The modification of data settings from the display unit can be carried out using the three setting switches (infra-red switches) - namely, the The infra-red switches enable the user to set parameters without opening the cover.
This chapter will provide a description of basic data configuration and the methods to be used with the three setting switches. The AXFA14 or the AXF integral flowmeter can also be operated using a handheld Brain Terminal (BT200) or a HART Communicator. (Please refer to Chapter 7 for operation via Brain Terminal and Chapter 8 for operation via HART Communicator.)
For FOUNDATION Fieldbus protocol, please refer to IM 01E20F02-01E.
For PROFIBUS PA protocol, please refer to IM 01E20F12-01E.
WARNING
Be sure to set parameters as “Protect” on the write protect function after finish of parameter setting work. Under extremely rare case, the infra-red switches may respond unexpectedly in such conditions as sticking ball of water or extraneous substances on the surface of display panel glass according to the principle of infra-red switch operation. Its probability rises in such cases as sticking rain water by storm or other similar situation and washing up work near flowmeter installation place. Either to illuminate or stop illuminating the infra-red switches by the flashlight may cause the mis-reaction. Refer to Chapter 6 “Menu P: Parameter Protection Items” and section “10.2.2” how to use the write protect function in detail.

Once Parameter Replacement Mode has been selected, the digit that can be replaced will be flashed on and off. When in this condition, confirm the relevant setting range as displayed at the bottom of the screen and then set the parameter as required.
In this example, the parameter will be set to “120 l/min”.
NOTE
When setting a new value, use the switch to move from digit to digit, and use the
switch to cycle through values for each individual digit. In addition to digit, it is also possible to select a decimal point, and this allows the position of the decimal point to be changed.
Modify the value to “120 l/min” as follows:
Touch the switch to move the cursor to the
position for multiples of 10. Then, touch the
switch to change the value at this position from “0” to “2”.
When the value of “120” has been setup, touch the
switch.

NOTE
6. PARAMETER DESCRIPTION

6.1 Parameters

With the exception of parameters that were specified by the customer upon ordering, all of the internal parameters will initially be set to default values. Actions such as the modification of display details can then be carried out whenever necessary.
For FOUNDATION Fieldbus protocol, please refer to IM 01E20F02-01E.
For PROFIBUS PA protocol, please refer to IM 01E20F12-01E.
IMPORTANT
Make sure to keep the instrument’s power on at least for 30 seconds after you set the param­eters. If you turn the power off immediately after the parameters are set, the settings will be canceled.

6.2 Parameter Lists

Parameter lists are comprised of the following items.
In order to ensure that correct flow rate data can be acquired, it is crucial that the nominal size, flow rate span, and meter factor of the combined remote flowtube are set. In cases where a remote flowtube is ordered at the same time as the AXFA14, or where the AXF integral flowme­ter is ordered, the nominal size and meter factor will be set upon shipment from the manufactur­ing plant, and these will not require additional setting. If the AXFA14 is ordered separately, the default value will be set for the meter factor; accordingly, it will be necessary to change this setting to the meter factor indicated on your remote flowtube data plate. If a flow rate span was specified upon ordering, this will be set before shipment. If this is not the case, however, it will be necessary for the appropriate value to be set by the user.
