2.4 Installation Location
Precautions
Select the installation location with consideration
to the following items to ensure long-term stable
operation of the instrument.
 Ambient Temperature:
Avoid installing the instrument in locations
with constantly fluctuating temperatures. If the
location is subject to radiant heat from the plant,
provide heat insulation or improve ventilation.
 Atmospheric Condition:
Avoid installing the instrument in a corrosive
atmosphere. In situations where this is
unavoidable, consider ways to improve
ventilation and to prevent rainwater from
entering and being retained in the conduit
pipes.
 Vibrations or Shocks:
Avoid installing the instrument in a place subject
to shocks or vibrations.

the measuring fluid. Moreover, the potential must be
the same as the ground. The magnetic flowmeter is
equipped with a eath ring that makes a connection
with the charge of the measured fluid for grounding.
The flowmeter should be grounded by certain
specifications (Refer to Figure 4.1.7).
Grounding is mandatory especially for insulated
piping such as PVC-sheathed pipes. If not, the
magnetic flowmeter measures the flow incorrectly
because the reference electrical potential is floating.

6.2 Measuring Mode Setting
(1) Measuring Modes
The measuring mode is Standard or Noise Reduction mode. Standard mode is set before shipment. If the
output fluctuation is large when a fluid actually flows, the fluctuation is reduced by increasing the damping time
constant.
• If the output fluctuation is still large when the damping time constant is increased, use the Noise Reduction
mode.
• Use the standard mode for sticky fluids.
After the measuring mode is changed from Standard mode to Noise Reduction mode or from Noise Reduction
mode to Standard mode, be sure to adjust the zero point. Perform zero adjustment with the metering tube
filled with the fluid and with the fluid static.

IMPORTANT
• Standard mode “00” must be set in case of size 150, 200 mm (6, 8 in.). It cannot be measured in Noise
Reduction mode “01”.

7.2.2 Measuring Mode Setting

Measuring Modes
The measuring mode is Standard or Noise Reduction mode. Standard mode is set before shipment. If the
output fluctuation is large when a fluid actually flows, the fluctuation is reduced by increasing the damping time
constant.
• If the output fluctuation is still large when the damping time constant is increased, use the Noise Reduction
mode.
• Use the standard mode for sticky fluids.
After the measuring mode is changed from Standard mode to Noise Reduction mode or from Noise Reduction
mode to Standard mode, be sure to adjust the zero point. Perform zero adjustment with the metering tube
filled with the fluid and with the fluid static.

IMPORTANT
• Standard mode (STD) must be set in case of size 150, 200 mm (6, 8 in.). It cannot be measureed in
Noise Reduction mode (FNR).

9.1 Loop Test (Test Output)
This function enables you to set up any desired
value, and to output it from the converter. Since this
output is also shared with the totalization display
and pulse output, this makes it possible to check
operation of individual functions.
The test function of contact output (Alarm) is also
provided.

IMPORTANT
Test output is prior to flow signal. Do not forget
to return to the normal operation mode after the
loop test.

Note 1: It is available only for JIS 10K wafer, JIS 20K wafer or ANSI 150 wafer type.
2: It is available only for size 15 to 100mm (0.5 to 4 in.).
3: Select optional code /JF3 with /G11 or /G12 in case of requirement of TIIS Flameproof type.
/G11 is selectable only for DC power supply and 4-conductor cable use.
4: Users must consider the characteristics of selected wetted parts material and the influence of process fluids. The use of
inappropriate materials can result in the leakage of corrosive process fluids and cause injury to personnel and/or damage
to plant facilities. It is also possible that the instrument itself can be damaged and that fragments from the instrument can
contaminate the user’s process fluids.
Be very careful with highly corrosive process fluids such as hydrochloric acid, sulfuric acid, hydrogen sulfide, sodium
hypochlorite, and high-temperature steam (150°C [302°F] or above).
Contact Yokogawa for detailed information of the wetted parts material.
5: For model CA115, the arrow on the flowtube comes to the back side of the display.
