CAUTION:

Failure to keep a Converter and Flow Detector combination paired 

properly will cause a loss of system accuracy and performance.

Installation

Requirements for Installation Site of the Signal Converter:

  •  Temperature range 0 - 50°C (32 - 122°F)
  •  Do not use in direct sunlight
  •  Humidity: 95% R.H. or less non-condensing
  •  Install unit in an area free of electromagnetic interference. Isolate power to unit from circuits containing    

    devices that draw large current or create line noise.

  •  Converter should not come in contact with fluids

Mounting and Removal:

  Step 1  

Connect flow detector coaxial cables with BNC connectors to converter.

  Step 2

     Confirm that the converter body and the terminal-block plug socket are firmly fixed with the  

  lock arm of the main body.

  Step 3

     When separating, push the lock arm and pull to the front.

  Wiring of Flow Detector:
  Step 1  

Converter plugs into terminal plug socket.

  Step 2

     The polarity of the BNC connector is shown in the figure below. Connect Red to IN (upstream    

  side) of the converter, and Black to OUT (downstream side).  If strain relief is not color    

  coded refer to cable identifiers.  Lock the BNC connectors securely.

  Step 3

     When installing multiple PFM1 systems, pay attention to ensure that the detector and converter  

  combination remain properly paired together.
