User Manual INTRODUCTION The MR flow transmitter is a state-of-the-art, microprocessor based variable area flow meter.
MR Flow Transmitter INSTALLATION THIS PRODUCT SHOULD BE INSTALLED AND SERVICED BY TECHNICALLY QUALIFIED PERSONNEL TRAINED IN MAINTAINING INDUSTRIAL CLASS FLOW INSTRUMENTATION AND PROCESSING EQUIPMENT. READ INSTRUCTIONS THOROUGHLY BEFORE INSTALLING THE UNIT. IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS REGARDING PRODUCT INSTALLATION OR MAINTENANCE, CALL YOUR LOCAL SUPPLIER FOR MORE INFORMATION. DISCONNECT ELECTRICAL POWER BEFORE OPENING WIRING ENCLOSURE.
User Manual Installation Recommendations The transmitter is a simple device to install. However, the following measures are recommended for reliable, troublefree operation: • Align pipe accurately. Piping should be accurately aligned and of correct length. The high pressure body of the transmitter can withstand shock and flow/pressure pulsation.
MR Flow Transmitter THE FLOW TRANSMITTER IS DESIGNED TO OPERATE ONLY ONE OF ITS THREE OUTPUTS AT A TIME (0…5V DC OR 0…10V DC OR 4…20 MA). CONNECTING MULTIPLE OUTPUTS SIMULTANEOUSLY WILL RESULT IN INACCURATE OUTPUT SIGNAL LEVELS. Schematics The transmitter can be wired in various configurations to allow interface with many different types of data collection and control instrumentation. Schematics 1 & 2 (Figure 3) represent typical wiring for a target powered by either AC power or DC supply.

MR Flow Transmitter OPERATION Operating the Meter The monitor has two modes of operation, referred to as RUN mode and PROGRAM mode as indicated on the display screen readout. Normal operation will be in the run mode. To access the program mode, press MENU until the first programming screen DISPLAY appears. NNOTE: PROGRAM appears on left side of display. After programming the meter, a password may be entered to prevent unauthorized access to programming.
User Manual MENU Enters and exits programming mode. Press MENU once to change to programming mode. The mode indicator on the display will change from RUN to PROGRAM. Press to scroll through the configuration choices in a bottom-to-top order. For numeric setup, this button increments numeric values. Use to scroll through the configuration choices in a top-to-bottom order. For numeric setup, this button moves the active digit to the right.
MR Flow Transmitter Numeric Value Entry Procedure NNOTE: If you are already in PROGRAM mode and the desired selection is displayed, proceed to step 3 below. If you are in PROGRAM mode and the desired selection is not displayed, press or and repeat pressing until the desired selection appears. Proceed to step 3. 1. Press MENU. PROGRAM appears in the lower left-hand corner and DISPLAY appears. 2. Press or to move to the desired selection.
User Manual Full Flow Rate The full flow rate is used to span the meter. Its displayed name is FULL FLOW and is viewed or changed using the Numeric Value Entry Procedure. Zero Capture The zero position of the meter cone must be set when installing the meter. To capture the zero calibration position, press ENTER at the ZERO CAP prompt. NO will display. Press either arrow key to change to YES, then press ENTER to capture zero.
MR Flow Transmitter Password Password protection prevents unauthorized users from changing programming information. Initially the password is set to all zeros. Its displayed name is PASSWORD and is viewed or changed using the Numeric Value Entry Procedure. Restore Defaults This feature allows you to restore factory calibration data. Its displayed name is RES DFLT. To restore factory calibration data, select YES, then press ENTER.
User Manual MAINTENANCE BEFORE ATTEMPTING TO REMOVE THE TRANSMITTER FROM THE LINE, CHECK THE SYSTEM TO CONFIRM THAT LINE PRESSURE HAS BEEN REDUCED TO ZERO PSI. FAILURE TO FOLLOW THESE INSTRUCTIONS COULD RESULT IN SERIOUS PERSONAL INJURY OR DEATH AND/OR DAMAGE TO THE EQUIPMENT. DISCONNECT ELECTRICAL POWER BEFORE REMOVING METER COVER. FAILURE TO FOLLOW THESE INSTRUCTIONS COULD RESULT IN SERIOUS PERSONAL INJURY OR DEATH AND/OR DAMAGE TO THE EQUIPMENT. Cartridge Cleaning 1. Disconnect the transmitter cable.
MR Flow Transmitter TROUBLESHOOTING No LCD Display • For 4…20 mA operation, check for current flow in the loop. • Check polarity of the current loop connections for proper orientation. • For 0…5V or 0…10V operation, check for proper voltage being supplied to the unit. • Check polarity of the supply voltage.
User Manual APPLICATION INFORMATION, LIQUID Viscosity Effect (SUS/cSt) The design uses a precision machined, sharp- edged orifice and biasing calibration spring that assures operating stability and accuracy over the wide viscosity range common to many fluids. Generally, high flow models of each meter size provide good accuracy over a viscosity range of 40…500 SUS (4.2…109 cSt). Density Effect (specific gravity) Any fluid density change from stated standards has a proportional effect on meter accuracy.
MR Flow Transmitter f2 = 460 + ° F 530 f2 = 273 + °C 293 Table 3–Specific Gravity Correction Factor (f3) f3 = Sp.Gr . Table 2: Conversion factors NNOTE: Table 2 is included to show the correction algorithms include in the program to perform pressure, temperature, and specific gravity corrections. When configuring the MR flow transmitter, enter the actual operating pressure, temperature, and specific gravity values, not the correction factors.
