OVERVIEW

Introduction

The F053 is a versatile pressure indicator with continuous pressure monitoring feature. It offers the facility to set one low pressure and one high pressure alarm value. If desired, an ignore function can be set up to allow for an incorrect pressure for a certain period of time. A wide selection of options further enhance this models capabilities, including Intrinsic Safety.

Display

The display has large 17mm (0.67") and 8mm (0.31") digits which display the pressure, measuring unit and alarm values. As the F053 has been designed for field mounted applications, a smart display update function has been incorporated. Related to the lower temperature, the update frequency of the LCD is tuned automatically to achieve a readable display even at -40°C / -40°F.

Backlight

The tri-color backlight in combination with the F053 offers a unique feature: in case of a pressure alarm, the backlight can be set to be red or flashing red / green. 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. All settings are safely stored in EEPROM memory in the event of sudden power failure.

Alarm Output

One alarm output is available to transmit the pressure alarm. It can be set to switched for a low, high or both alarms! The output signal can be a passive NPN, active PNP or an isolated electro-mechanical relay.

Signal Input

The F053 does accept (0)4 - 20mA and 0 - 10V input signals from any type of pressure measurement device. Also a 4 - 20mA input loop powered model is available.

Hazardous Area

For hazardous area applications, this model has been ATEX, IECEx, FM and CSA certified Intrinsically Safe for gas and dust applications, with an allowed operational temperature of -40°C to +70°C (-40°F to+158°F). A flame proof enclosure with ATEX certification offers the rating

II 2 GD EEx d IIB T5.

Enclosures

Various types of enclosures can be selected, all ATEX, IECEx, FM and CSA approved. As standard the F053 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 rugged aluminum field mount enclosure with IP67 / NEMA 4X rating. Both European or U.S. cable gland entry threads are available.

To aid in the construction of a Fluidwell model number a model configurator must be used. The path to this Configurator is contained in the link shown below. However, it would help to first review the options shown below.

NOTE: If you require the product to be Intrinsically Safe (ATEX, IECEx, CSA c-us or FM.), the options you choose should only include those options that carry the ATEX symbol next to them. The Configurator will not allow you to mix and match options, unless the product is to be used in a Safe Area.

Once a new model is generated using the Configurator, you will

see the price of the fully configured model
have an opportunity to purchase the product
have the capability to e-mail the configuration to us, yourself, or a third person
