Test conditions:
•
acquisition = 15 seconds
•
pulse output = 2 Hz @ 5 ms
•
alarm output on = 25 %
•
logger rate = 1 minute
• with pressure
•
integral verification self check = 15 minutes
•
ambient temperature = 20 °C
• mobile communication transmission interval of:
- 6 h for Detailed Report through 4G over FTPS, or
- 2 h for Summary Report through NB - IoT over LwM2M
Battery capacity and life are significantly shortened:
• when the operating environment temperature ranges between
–20 and 0 °C or 50 and 70 °C (–4° and 32 °F or 122 and 158 °F)
•
when data acquisition is less than 15 seconds
•
when pulse output width > 5 ms and output frequency is set high
• with extended NFC interface use
•
Class 2/Class 1 calibration to OIML R49 options
(RCM and RCN in ordering code)
Mains supply (option – remote only)
• 95 to 240 V AC, 50/60 Hz, 3 VA
• Mains connection cable: approx. 3 m (9.8 ft)
Renewable power (option)
• Solar or wind
• Input voltage: 6 to 32 V DC @ 5 W
• Max. current: 200 mA
Internal backup time for:
• DN40 to 200: 5 days
• DN250 to 600: 3 days
• DN700 to 2400: 1 day
Note .
Renewable energy generators do not operate at
maximum capacity. For example, low wind speeds, dirty solar
panels and shorter daylight periods all reduce capacity.
Consequently, some installations may require generators with
a capacity greater than the specified 5 W minimum.

Note
. Test conditions are the same as for battery-operated transmitter with
4 batteries only.
Battery change-over backup time
• Approximately 2 minutes
Antenna
• Internal
• External (option)
Note .
Mobile communications do not operate if the internal
antenna is under water . The general advice is to mount the
antenna as high as possible, always outside of any metal
enclosures and not under the surface of the ground.
Inputs
• IP68 connectors, mains cable (remote only)
• Sensor cable (remote only). ABB sensor cable supplied as
standard. SWA cable available (via adapter box) on
application
• Pressure transducer connection (option)
Configuration/User interface
ABB Velox Interface app on a compatible tablet or
smartphone. Operating systems of smartphone or tablet are
Android (Kit Kat or newer). Functions of Velox Interface
include configuration, diagnostics, logger data retrieval and
transmitter flash update.
IMPORTANT (NOTE)
Please ensure all required regulatory approvals are in
place before you put the FEX45X transmitter in use.
