Applications

Flow measurement where a local flow rate indication is required without re-transmission or totalizer functionality. Alternative advanced models: F012 - F013 - F014 - F016 or even more advanced F110 and higher.

OVERVIEW

Introduction

The F010 is a local indicator to display the actual flow rate. The measuring and time unit to be displayed are simply selected through an alphanumerical configuration menu. No adhesive labels have to be put on the outside of the enclosure: a weather proof and user friendly solution! The configuration of K-factors or Span and number of decimals is done through software functions, without any sensitive dip-switches or trimmers. A wide selection of options further enhance this models capabilities, including Intrinsic Safety for hazardous area applications.

Display

The display has very large 26mm (1") digits which can be set to show the flow rate and the measuring and time units. As the F010 has been designed for field mounted applications, a smart display update function has been incorporated. Related to the lower temperatures, the update frequency of the LCD is tuned automatically to achieve a readable display even at -40°C / -40°F.

Backlight

For those applications where readability during day and night is an issue, a bi-color backlight is available. The background color can be set to green or amber and the intensity can be adjusted from the keyboard. The display is a transflective type, which means that a high contrast reading is guaranteed in full sunlight as well as during the night. This backlight option is also available Intrinsically Safe.

Configuration

All configuration settings are accessed via a simple operator menu which can be pass-code protected. Each setting is clearly indicated with an alphanumerical description, therefore avoiding confusing abbreviations and baffling codes. Once familiar with one F-series product, you will be able to program all models in the series without a manual. All settings are safely stored in EEPROM memory in the event of sudden power failure.

Signal input

The F010 will accept most pulse and analog input signals for flow or mass flow measurement. The input signal type can be selected by the user in the configuration menu without having to adjust any sensitive mechanical dip-switches, jumpers or trimmers. The analog input version is even available as 4-20mA input loop-powered display.

Power supply

Several power supply options are available to power the F010 and sensor. For analog sensors, a 4-20mA loop-powered version is available as well. A real sensor supply is offered with the 24 VAC/DC or 115-230 VAC power supply option.

Hazardous area

Enclosures

Various types of enclosures can be selected, all ATEX, IECEx, FM and CSA approved. As standard the F010 is supplied in a GRP panel mount enclosure, which can be converted to an IP67 / NEMA 4X GRP field mount enclosure by the addition of a back case. Most popular is our aluminum field mount enclosure with IP67 / NEMA 4X rating. Both European or U.S. cable gland entry threads are available
