Hazardous Material Information

If repairs are required:
In view of the Disposal Law of 27 Aug. 86 (AbfG. 11 Special Wastes) the owner of special wastes is
responsible for its care and the employer also has, according to the Hazardous Material Law of 01 Oct. 86
(GefStoffV, 17 General Protection Responsibility), a responsibility to protect his employees, we must make
note that
a) all flowmeter primaries and/or flowmeter converters which are returned to ABB Automation for repair are
to be free of any hazardous materials (acids, bases, solvents, etc.).
b) the flowmeter primaries must be flushed so that the hazardous materials are neutralized. There are
cavities in the primaries between the metering tube and the housing. Therefore after metering
hazardous materials, these cavities are to be neutralized (see Hazardous Material Law -GefStoffV).
For two piece housings the housing screws are to be loosened. For flowmeter primaries ≥ 18"/DN 450
the drain plug at the bottom of the housing is to be removed in order to neutralize any hazardous material
in the magnet coil and electrode areas.
c) For service and repairs written confirmation is required that the measures listed in a) and b) have been
carried out. For this purpose, please use the declaration regarding contamination on page 61.
d) Any costs incurred to remove the hazardous materials during a repair will be billed to the owner of the
equipment.

2.3 Installation Requirements

! Note:
During installation it is essential to observe that for
installations in:
a) horizontal pipelines the cable connectors (for the
interconnections) must point towards the operator for
best display readability (Fig. 3).
b) vertical pipelines the cable connectors (for the
interconnections) must point to the left as viewed by the
operator (Fig. 4).
See the Flowrate Coordination described in 2.2.

Fig. 4

In horizontal installations the imaginary line connecting the

electrodes should be horizontal so that air or gas bubbles
cannot affect the signal voltage. The electrode orientation is
shown in Fig. 5.

The flowmeter primary must be installed so that the meter tube

is always completely filled with fluid and cannot drain. A slight
upward slope of approx. 3 % is desirable to prevent gas build
up within the flowmeter (Fig. 3).

Vertical installations are ideal when the fluid flows in an upward
direction. Installations in drop lines, i.e., the fluid flows from the

The measurement principle is independent of flow profile as

long as standing eddies do not extend into the measurement
section (e.g. after double elbows, tangential inflows or half open
valves upstream of the flowmeter primary). In such situations Fig. 9
measures to condition the flow are required. Experience
indicates that in most cases a straight upstream section with a
length of 3 x D and a downstream section of 2 x D is sufficient For flowmeter primaries which are to be installed in the vicinity
(D = flowmeter primary size). For the EMF-Instruments in of pumps or other vibration generating equipment, the use of
certified installations which require a PTB-Approval, the mechanical snubbers is advantageous (Fig. 10).
required installation specifications may be found in the
Approval and on page 7. In calibration stands the reference
conditions of EN 29104 require straight lengths of 10 x D
upstream and 5 x D downstream.

(see the Tables 1 to 3).

Gasket Surfaces on the Mating Flanges

In every installation parallel mating flange surfaces should be
provided and gaskets made from materials suitable for the fluid
and the temperature are installed. Only then can leaks be
avoided. The flange gaskets for the flowmeter primary must be
installed concentrically to achieve optimum measurement
results. Wafer Design flowmeter primaries are shipped without
gaskets. The installation (concentric and parallel) in the pipeline
is made directly without additional gaskets. A gasket is only Fig. 11 Bolt Tightening Sequence

2.3.2 Installations in Larger Size Pipelines

The flowmeter can readily be installed in larger size pipelines
through utilization of flanged transition sections.The pressure
drop resulting from the reduction can be determined from the
Diagram Fig. 12 using the following procedure:
1. Calculate the diameter ratio d/D.
2. Calculate the flow velocity as a function of the meter size
and the flowrate:

Q (flowrate)
v = ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Flowmeter Primary Constant

The flow velocity can also be determined from the Flow

Rate Nomograph in the Specification Sheet D184S031U01.
3. The pressure drop can be read on the -Y- axis at the
intersection of the flow velocity value and the "Diameter
Ratio d/D" value on -X- axis in Fig. 12.

8. Safety Relevant Section
8.1 Grounding the Flowmeter Primary
The grounding procedure described is to be observed. In
accordance with DIN VDE 0100, Part 540 a 4 mm2 Cu wire is
to be connected between the ground screw on the flowmeter
primary (on the flange and on the converter housing) and
ground. A ground connection at the converter is essential
to meet the EMC requirements. For technical reasons it
also important that the ground potential be the same as the
potential of the pipeline. An additional ground connection at
the connection terminals is not required.
When installed in plastic or lined insulating pipelines the
connections to ground are made from a grounding plate or
grounding electrode. Grounding electrodes are used in sizes
6” : DN 150 and up with hard and soft rubber liners. When there
are stray potentials in the fluid the installation of a grounding Fig. 25 Flowmeter Primary 1/8” - 1-1/2” ( DN 3 - DN 40)
plate on both sides of the flowmeter primary is recommended.

! Note:
concerning the flowmeter primaries with integrated

Instruments 5” (DN 125) and larger with hard/soft rubber
liners include a conductive section integrated in the liner.
grounding electrodes (option) This section grounds the fluid.
If the flowmeter primary is installed in plastic or earthenware
pipelines, or in pipelines with an insulating lining, transient
current may flow through the grounding electrode in special
cases. In the long term, this may destroy the flowmeter pri-
mary because the ground electrode will in turn degrade
electrochemically. In these special cases, the connection to
the ground must be performed using grounding plates.

Four grounding possibilities are described below. In cases a)

and b) the fluid is in electrical contact with the pipeline. In cases
c) and d), it is isolated from the pipeline.

! Note:
For instruments with Food Industry fittings, Tri-Clamp
and hose connectors the meter tube is in electrical contact
with the fluid. It is only necessary to connect the grounding
connection of the flowmeter primary to ground. Fig. 26 Flowmeter Primary 1/8” - 4” (DN 3 - DN 100), Wafer Design

8.5 Additional Information for Connecting to the HART-Protocol®
The converter Instrument Tag includes the term HART-Protocol. The software can be recognized by the label attached to
the EPROM with the identification, e.g. D699B138U01 X.33 , abbreviated as B138U01 X.33. There are a number of parameter
functions pre-installed in this software.The current output is set to 4-20 mA, the min. load is 250 Ohm. Not all standard settings
are available in HART. Please observe the note in Section 3.5 Parameter Overview and Data Entry.

Submenu The instrument address can be set between 0 and 15.

If the Address is set to 0, then the current output value for the
Data link
flowrate is changed to the range from 4.00 to 20.00 mA. If
additional instruments are connected to the bus and an Address
1-15 is set, then the converter operates in the Multidrop-Mode.
The current output is then set to a fixed 4.00 mA value. The
Inst. Address
evaluation of the measurement values is then only possible over
ENTER 0 the HART-Communication.

8.6 Additional Information for the Pulse Output

The scaled pulse output function can be changed from active to passive at any time by changing the jumpers on the calibration
board. See Fig. 20 on Page 42 . The pulse output for both flow directions uses a single channel. An option is available for a
2-channel pulse output, one each for forward and for reverse flow. When configuring the parameter the following parameter
settings must be observed:
Pulse Factor
Pulse The pulse factor is the number of output pulses for measured flowrate unit. When the pulse factor is
changed, the totalizer value in the selected units remains unchanged. The pulse factor can be selected
1.0000 / m3 in the range from 0.001 to 1000 pulses/unit.
The selected pulse factor is checked by the converter as a function of the flow range, the pulse width,
the volume (e.g. ml, l, m3 ) or mass (e.g. g, kg, t) units. If any one of these parameters is changed the
Pulse width pulse width cannot exceed 50% of the period of the output frequency at 100% flowrate (on/off ratio 1:1).
If the pulse width exceeds this limit it is automatically reduced to 50% of the period and the message
230 ms
Warning! New pulse width is displayed.

Pulse Width
Totalizer units The pulse width (length of the pulses) for the selected pulse output can be set between 0.1 and 2000ms.
The pulse width must be sufficiently short so that at a maximum output frequency (flowrate max. 100% =
m3 5 kHz) there is no overlapping of the pulses. On the other hand, the pulse width must be long enough to
assure that it can be measured by the connected instrumentation (SPC).
Example:
Flow range = 100 l/min (Qmax = 100 % flow range end value)
Totalizer = 1 pulse/l

f = 100pulses/min
--------------------------------------- = 1.666 Hz
60s
To allow for a 30% overrange

f = 1.666 Hz x 1.3 = 2.166 Hz (1/s)

On/off ratio of 1:1 (pulse width = pause width)

1
t p = ------------------------ x 0.5 = 230 ms
–1
2,166s
Any value < 230 ms can be set. Counters usually require a pulse width ≥ 30 ms.
The converter automatically checks the pulse width setting. Its maximum can be 80 % to the output fre-
quency at 130 % flowrate. If this limit is exceeded, the new value will not be accepted and the
message entry too large will be displayed.

Observe current and frequency values.

When connecting an active or passive counter the max. allowable current and frequency values must be
considered.

8.7 Additional Information for Piston Pump/Pulsating Flows

The primary applications for the pulsed DC field are the metering of continuous flows. When pulsation
Submenu dampers are used for pulsating flow conditions it is also possible to take advantage of the pulse DC field
technology. If the use of pulsation dampers is undesirable or impossible, then instruments with higher
Primary
magnetic field excitation frequencies must be employed. For metering the flow after single stage piston,
hose and membrane pumps the converter must be able to correctly process the peak flowrates. These
peaks seldom reach more than three times the average flowrate. As long as the converter can linearly
Span CS 25 Hz process these flowrate peaks and sufficient samples are measured, the accuracy for longer totalizer
periods of the measurement system is unaffected.
-79.8 %
Exact knowledge of the type and operating characteristics of the pump must be available. Then, based
on established criteria, a decision can be made if the application can utilize a pulsed DC system or if a
AC system is required. The pulsed DC system can accurately measure constantly rising piston pump
flows with a max. cycle frequency of 120 strokes/minute. The magnetic field excitation must be 25 Hz,
Damping
the filter must be turned on and a damping value >2.4s should be set. In the Submenu Operating Mode
5.0000 s
the parameter “Fast” should be selected.
A digital filter is incorporated in the converter especially for pulsating flows or noisy flow signals. It
smooths the instantaneous display indications and a noisy output current. The damping value can
be reduced when the filter is turned on. The response time of the converter is not affected.
Filter
There is no relationship between the HART-Protocol and the filter and the damping.

Safety Information

! Note
There are circuits in the flowmeter primary and converter
which are dangerous to contact. Therefore the supply
power should be turned off before the housing is opened.
Only trained personnel should operate the instrument when
the housing is opened.

The converter and the flowmeter primary are to be grounded in

accordance with the applicable international Standards.
The line supply connections must be sized for the current in the
flowmeter primary. The cable must correspond to IEC227 or
IEC245.
A switch or circuit breaker should be installed in the supply
power line to the flowmeter which should be located near the
flowmeter and be appropriately identified.
