2. DPW FLOW METERS TECHNICAL DATA

2.1 - Principles of Operation

DPW liquid flow meters consist of a meter body that is installed in-line in a conduit system. Inside, between the inlet and the outlet connections is a rotary wheel with permanent magnets embedded at 180 degrees in paddles.

Fluid flowing through the meter causes the paddle to spin. A magnetic sensor picks up the frequency of pulses, and the readings are proportional to the liquid flow taking place. The number of pulses per unit time interval and a K-factor (pulses/unit of flow) facilitate determining the volumetric rate of flow through the meter.

Additionally, the DPW Flow Meter incorporates a Microcontroller driven circuitry and non-volatile memory that stores all hardware specific variables. The flow rate can be displayed in 29 different volumetric or mass flow engineering units. Flow meter parameters and functions can be programmed remotely via the RS-232/RS-

485 interface or locally via optional LCD/KeyPad. DPW flow meters support various functions including: two programmable flow totalizers, low, high or range flow and temperature alarms, 2 programmable optically isolated outputs, 0 to 5 Vdc / 4 to 20 mA analog outputs (jumper selectable) for each process (flow and temperature) variable, self diagnostic alarm. Optional local 2x16 LCD readout with adjustable back light provides flow rate, temperature, total volume reading in currently selected engineering units, diagnostic events indication and feature a password protected access to the process parameters to ensure against tampering or resetting.

DC Power (+)

DC Power (-)

WARNING Do not apply power voltage above 2 Vdc. Doing so will cause

DPW damage or faulty operation.

To avoid risk of serious injury or death, make sure power is OFF when connecting or disconnecting any cables in the system.

The (+) and (-) power inputs are each protected by a 300 mA M (medium time-lag) resettable fuse. If a shorting condition or polarity reversal occurs, the fuse will cut power to the flow transducer circuit. Disconnect the power to the unit, remove the faulty condition, and reconnect the power. The fuse will reset once the faulty condition has been removed.

Use of the DPW flow meter in a manner other than that specified in this manual or in writing from Dwyer ® , may impair the protection provided by the equipment.

2.2.2 Analog Output Signals Connections

CAUTION When connecting the load to the output terminals, do not exceed the rated values shown in the specifications. Failure to do so might cause damage to this device. Be sure to check if the wiring and the polarity of the power supply is correct before turning the power ON. Wiring error may cause damage or faulty operation.

DPW series Flow Meters are equipped with either calibrated 0 to 5 or calibrated 4 to 20 mA output signals (jumper selectable). This linear output signal represents

0 to 100% of the flow meter’s full scale range.

WARNING The 4 to 20 mA current loop output is self-powered (sourcing type, non-isolated). Do NOT connect an external voltage source to the output signals.

WARNING Observe jumper configuration before connecting 4 to 20 mA current loop load. Failure to make proper jumper configuration

(see Figure 5-1) may cause damage for output circuitry. Do NOT connect an external voltage source to the output signals.

3.2 Menu Sequence

The listing below gives a general overview of the standard top-level display menu sequence when running firmware version A002. The ESC pushbutton is used to toggle between the process mode (PI screens) and the menu.

The listing in Section 3.2 shows the standard display menu sequence and submenus using the UP button to move through the menu items. The first message displayed the first time the ESC button is pressed after the converter is powered up is "Prog. Protection ON". Thereafter, pressing the ESC button while the flow meter is in monitoring mode (PI screens) will display the parameter that was last exited.

Program Protection may be turned "off" by pressing the ENT button when the Prog.

Protection menu is displayed. The firmware will prompt with "Change Prog Prot”.

Pressing UP or DN button will toggle current protection status. If password is set to any value more than zero, the firmware will prompt with "Enter Prot Code". User has to enter up to 3 digits program protection code, in order to be able to access password protected menus. Once correct password is entered, program protection id turned off until unit is powered up again.

When the last menu item is reached, the firmware "wraps around" and scrolls to the first item on the menu once again (see Figure 3.12). The menu items in the first column are upper-level configuration mode functions. Submenu selections (shown indented in the second column) only appear if the associated upper level is selected by pressing the ENT push button. The allowable selections of sub-menu items which are selected by tabular means are shown in detail in Section 3.3.

4.9.2 - Submenu Pulse Number Measure Interval Numerical Entry

Signal Processing software algorithm can be set to calculate flow rate based on two different methods (see Section 4.9.4): a) number of pulses over preset measure interval b) pulse width measurement

Page 13

Both methods calculates frequency of the pulses from the flow meter sensor. The number of pulses over preset measure interval method convenient when pulsating flow or especially noisy signals are encountered.

This method allows to get stable average flow rate if pulse measure interval is set to values more than 4000 ms. This parameters effects the flow update rate. With higher value of the pulse measure interval, the resolution and stability of the flow measurement improves, but response time become longer. A suggested pulse measure interval value of 4000 seconds is a good starting point for most applicable process fluids. With lower settings the response time of the meter will be shorter, but resolution and stability will degrade.

The pulse measure interval settings are only related to the number of pulses over preset measure interval method. Pulse measure interval can be selected between

500 and 60000 ms. A typical display with pulse measure interval selection is shown below.

Measure Interval

4000 ms

4.9.6 - Submenu Noise Reduction Filter Sample Number Numerical Entry

This is the second parameter that makes up noise reduction filter algorithm. The sample number value can be selected between 1 and 32. The number of samples value represents the number of previous individual inputs used to calculate the average value. Eventually the number of samples in the running average also affects the response time. The more samples are used, the more inertial flow output reading will be to the actual flow change. A suggested nominal number of 5 samples is a good starting point for most applicable process fluids. A typical display with Sample Number selection is shown below.

4.9.3 - Submenu Flow Meter Calibration Factor Numerical Entry

Calibration Factor is defined as the number of pulses from flow sensor per one gallon of fluid passing through the meter. This is the parameter by which the factory calibrates the flow meter. Change of this parameter is rarely needed by customers.

It is only necessary if you believe the DPW flow meter is no longer accurate.

Note: Your DPW Flow Meter was calibrated at the factory for the specified fluid and full scale flow range (see device’s label or calibration data sheet). There is no need to adjust the Flow Meter calibration factor, unless adjustment for specific installation or fluid is needed. Any alteration of the flow meter calibration factor will VOID calibration warranty supplied with instrument.

A typical display with Calibration Factor selection is shown below.

4.9.4 - Submenu Flow Meter Measure Mode Tabular Entry

Signal Processing software algorithm can be set to calculate flow rate based on two different methods: a) number of pulses over preset measure interval b) pulse width measurement

First method (a) was explained earlier (see Section 4.9.2). Second method (b) allows get quick response time and best resolution of the flow rate, but with pulsating or especially noisy flow environment the stability of the flow rate reading may be compromised. A digital filter (noise reduction algorithm) is available in the flow meter when pulsating flow or especially noisy signals are encountered (see

Sections 4.9.5 and 4.9.6). The digital filter improves the displayed instantaneous flow values.

The digital filter only works with pulse width measurement method and is not applicable for flow measurement mode (a) – “number of pulses over measure interval”. A typical display with Measure Mode selection is shown below. By default unit shipped from the factory with Measure Mode set to “Pulse Width”.

4.9.7 - Submenu Flow Linearizer Tabular Entry

The Flow Linearization algorithm may be used to improve linearity of the flow measurement. The Flow Linearization table is built during factory calibration procedure and stored in the device EEPROM. The Flow Linearizer can be used with both flow measurement algorithms. By default unit shipped from the factory with enabled Flow Linearizer. A typical display with Flow Linearizer selection is shown below.

4.9.5 - Submenu Noise Reduction Filter Damping Time Numerical Entry

A noise reduction filter algorithm (running average of the individual flow inputs) is available in the flow meter when pulsating flow or especially noisy signals are encountered. There are two parameters that make up Signal Processing Control:

Damping Time and Number of Samples. They are described individually below.

Damping Time: The damping value can be selected between 0 and 99 seconds.

The value represents the response time of the running average flow rate change.

The higher the damping value the longer the response time of the filter. If noise reduction filter is not desired it may be disabled by setting Damping Time parameter to zero. By default unit shipped from the factory with Damping Time value set to 5.

A typical display with Damping Time selection is shown below.

5. Analog Output Signals

5.1 - Analog Output Signals Configuration

DPW series Flow Meters are equipped with calibrated 0 to 5 Vdc and/or 4 to 20 mA output signals for flow and temperature* process variables. The set of the jumpers

(J3A, J3B, J3C, J3D, J3E, J3F) located on the top of the flow meter, inside of the maintenance access window (see Figure 5-1 “DPW configuration jumpers”) are used to switch between 0 to 5 Vdc or 4 to 20 mA output signals. Jumpers J3A, J3B,

J3C are used to set flow analog output type and jumpers J3D, J3E, J3F are used to set temperature* analog output type (see Table 5-1). Jumper J3G is used to configure RS-485 termination resistor (by default is off).

Note: It is recommended to use the Dwyer Instruments, Inc. supplied calibration and maintenance software for analog output calibration. This software includes an automated calibration procedure which may radically simplify calculation of the offsets and spans variables and, the reading and writing for the EEPROM table.

The DPW analog output calibration involves calculation and storing of the offset and span variables in the EEPROM for each available output. The 0 to 5 Vdc output has only scale variable and 20 mA output has offset and scale variables. The following is a list of the EEPROM variables used for analog output computation:

6. DPW FLOW CALIBRATION PROCEDURES

NOTE: REMOVAL OF THE FACTORY INSTALLED CALIBRATION SEALS

AND/OR ANY ADJUSTMENTS MADE TO THE METER, AS DESCRIBED IN THIS

SECTION, WILL VOID ANY CALIBRATION WARRANTY APPLICABLE.

Note: All adjustments in this section are made from the outside of the meter via digital communication interface between a PC (terminal) and DPW or via local

LCD/keypad. There is no need to disassemble any part of the instrument or perform internal PCB component (potentiometers) adjustment.

6.1 - Connections and Initial Warm Up

Power up the DPW Flow Meter for at least 1 minute prior to commencing the calibration procedure. Establish digital RS-485/RS-232 communication between

PC (communication terminal) and the DPW. Start Dwyer ® supplied calibration and maintenance software on the PC.

Page 17

6.2 - Flow Meter Span Calibration

Note: Your DPW Flow Meter was calibrated at the factory for the specified fluid and full scale flow range (see device’s front label). There is no need to adjust the

Calibration Factor or Flow linearization table unless linearity adjustment is needed, flow range has to be changed. Any alteration of the Calibration Factor or flow linearization table will VOID calibration warranty supplied with instrument.

Using Dwyer Instruments, Inc. supplied calibration and maintenance software start

Set Span procedure by navigating to the Tools/Set Span/PulseCounts menu. The software will display screen with current frequency and calculated Calibration

Factor. Using the installation flow regulator, adjust the flow rate to 100% of FS flow.

Check the flow rate indicated against the flow calibrator. Once required flow rate is established click Save button. The new Calibration Factor will be saved in to the

EEPROM table (index 61) and device linearization table (EEPROM indexes 62-83) will be initialized with default linear values.

Note: Described above procedure will reinitialize entire linearization table. If it is desirable to keep existing linearization table and only minor adjustment of the calibration curve is required it is recommended perform linearization table adjustment starting from 90% FS (see Section 6.3).

Calibration Factor also can be adjusted using local LCD/keypad interface (see

Section 4.9.3).

6.3 - Flow Meter Linearization Table Calibration

The DPW flow linearization table calibration involves building a table of the actual flow values (EEPROM indexes 62, 64, 66, 68, 70, 72, 74, 76, 78, 80, 82) and corresponding sensor readings (EEPROM indexes 63, 65, 67, 69, 71, 73, 75, 77,

79, 81, 83). Actual flow values are entered in normalized fraction format: 100.000%

FS corresponds to 1.000000 flow value and 0.000% FS corresponds to 0.000000

flow value. The valid range for flow values is from 0.000000 to 1.000000 (note:

DPW will accept up to 6 digits after decimal point). Sensor readings are entered in pulses and should always be in the range of 10 to 4000. There are 11 elements in the table so the data should be obtained at an increment of 10.0% FS (0.0, 10.0,

20.0, 30.0, 40.0, 50.0, 60.0, 70.0, 80.0, 90.0 and 100.0% FS).

Note: Do not alter memory index 62 (must be 0.0) and 63 (must be 0 counts).

These numbers represent zero flow calibration points and should not be changed.

If a new calibration table is going to be created, it is recommended to start calibration from 100% FS. If only linearity adjustment is required, calibration can be started in any intermediate portion of the gas table.

Using the flow regulator, adjust the flow rate to 100% FS flow. Check the flow rate indicated against the flow calibrator. Observe the flow reading on the DPW. If the difference between calibrator and DPW flow reading is more than 0.5% FS, make a correction in the sensor reading in the corresponding position of the linearization table (see Index 83).

If the DPW flow reading is more than the calibrator reading, the number of counts in the index 83 must be decreased. If the DPW flow reading is less than the calibrator reading, the number of counts in the index 83 must be increased. Once

Index 83 is adjusted with a new value, check the DPW flow rate against the calibrator and, if required, perform additional adjustments for Index 83.

If a simple communication terminal is used for communication with the DPW, then

“MW” (Memory Write) command from the software interface commands set may be used to adjust sensor value in the linearization table (see section 8.3 for complete software interface commands list). Memory Read “MR” command can be used to read the current value of the index.

Assuming the DPW is configured with RS-485 interface and has address “11”, the following example will first read the existing value of Index 83 and then write a new adjusted value:

!11,MR,83[CR] - reads EEPROM address 83

!11,MW,83,1200[CR] - writes new sensor value (1200 counts) in to the index 83

Once 100% FS calibration is completed, the user can proceed with calibration for another 9 points of the linearization table by using the same approach.

Note: Once memory index 83 is changed the device firmware will automatically update Calibration Factor (EEPROM index 61).

Note: It is recommended to use Dwyer ® supplied calibration and maintenance software for linearization table calibration. This software includes an automated calibration procedure which may radically simplify reading and writing for the

EEPROM linearization table.

7. RS-485/RS-232 SOFTWARE INTERFACE COMMANDS

8. Troubleshooting

8.1 - Common Conditions

Your DPW Flow Meter was thoroughly checked at numerous quality control points during and after manufacturing and assembly operations. It was calibrated according to your desired flow and pressure conditions for a given fluid. It was carefully packed to prevent damage during shipment. Should you feel that the instrument is not functioning properly, please check for the following common conditions first:

Are all cables connected correctly? Are there any leaks in the installation? Is the power supply correctly selected according to requirements? When several meters are used a power supply with appropriate current rating should be selected. Were the connector pinouts matched properly? When interchanging with other manufacturers' equipment, cables and connectors must be carefully wired for correct pin configurations. Is the pressure differential across the instrument sufficient?

No.

Indication

LCD display remains blank when unit is powered up. No response when flow is introduced from analog outputs 0 to 5 Vdc or 4 to 20 mA.

Likely Reason

Power supply is bad or polarity is reversed

LCD display reading and/or flow analog output 0 to 5 Vdc signal fluctuate in wide range during flow measurement.

LCD display reading or /and temperature analog output 0 to 5 Vdc signal fluctuate in wide range during flow measurement.

LCD display reading does correspond to the correct flow range, but 0 to 5 Vdc output signal does not change (always the same reading or around zero).

LCD display flow reading and 0 to 5 Vdc output voltage do correspond to the correct flow range, but

4 to 20 mA output signal does not change (always the same or reading around 4.0 mA).

LCD display temperature reading and 0 to 5 Vdc output voltage do correspond to the correct flow range, but 4 to 20 mA output signal does not change (always the same or reading around 4.0

mA).

Fluid flows through the DPW meter and Paddle

Wheel is turning, but LCD Display reading and the flow output voltage 0 to 5 Vdc signal do not respond to flow.

Fluid flows through the DPW meter and Paddle

Wheel is turning, but LCD Display reading and the flow output voltage 0 to 5 Vdc signal do not respond to flow. There is no pulse output signals from pin C of the 12 pin M16 connector.

The Temperature reading on the LCD and analog 0 to 5 Vdc or 4 to 20 mA is not correct (out of the device measurement range: -10 to 70C).

The DPW Diagnostic Alarm Event with code

0 – “CPU Temp. High” is active.

PC board is defective.

Flow output 0 to 5 Vdc signal (pin L of the 12 pin M16 connector) is shorted on the GND or overloaded.

Temperature output 0 to 5 Vdc signal (pin

M of the 12 pin M16 connector) is shorted on the GND or overloaded.

Output 0 to 5 Vdc schematic is burned out or damaged.

Analog flow output scale and offset variable are corrupted.

External loop is open or load resistance more than 500 Ω.

Flow output 4 to 20 mA schematic is burned out or damaged.

External loop is open or load resistance more than 500 Ω.

Temperature output 4 to 20 mA schematic is burned out or damaged.

The fluid flow rate is below set Low flow cut-off value.

Sensor or PC board is defective.

DPW magnetic sensor is defective.

Paddle Wheel magnets are defective.

RTD connector got loose and is not connected to the PCB board.

RTD sensor is defective.

MCU temperature is too high (overload).

The DPW Diagnostic Alarm Event with code F -

“Fatal Error” is active.

Fatal Error (EEPROM or SRAM corrupted).

Solution

Measure voltage on pins A and B of the 12 pin M16 connector. If voltage is out of specified range, then replace power supply with a new one. If polarity is reversed (reading is negative) make correct connection.

Return DPW to factory for repair.

Check external connections to pin L of the 12 pin M16 connector.

Make sure the load resistance of the equipment connected to the flow 0 to 5 Vdc output is more than 1000 Ω.

Check external connections to pin M of the 12 pin M16 connector.

Make sure the load resistance of the equipment connected to the flow 0 to 5 Vdc output is more than 1000 Ω.

Return DPW to factory for repair.

Restore original EEPROM scale and offset variable or perform analog output recalibration (see section 5.2).

Check external connections to pins L and K of the 12 pin M16 connector. Make sure the loop resistance is less than 500 Ω.

Return DPW to factory for repair.

Check external connections to pins M and K of the 12 pin M16 connector. Make sure the loop resistance is less than 500 Ω.

Return DPW to factory for repair.

Check settings for Low flow cut-off value and make required adjustment.

Return DPW to factory for repair.

Replace DPW magnetic sensor.

Replace DPW Paddle Wheel.

Check RTD connector, make sure it is firmly attached to the header

J2 on the PCB.

Replace RTD sensor.

Disconnect power from the DPW. Make sure the ambient temperature is within specified range (below 70° C). Let the device cool down for at least 15 minutes. Apply power to the DPW and check Diagnostic Alarm Event. If overload condition will be indicated again the unit has to be returned to the factory for repair.

Cycle the power on the DPW. If Diagnostic Alarm Event with code

F indicating again the unit has to be returned to the factory for repair.
