Appendix B—Pulse Output Option, Intrinsically Safe

 

MC-II Pulse Output Circuit Assembly 

(Part No. 100005163; Intrinsically Safe)

 

 

The pulse output circuit assembly (Figure B1) equips the MC-II Flow Analyzer to provide an optional pulse 

output. It is mounted inside the unit between the totalizer board and the battery cavity.

 

Important—When this circuit assembly is installed according to Figures B2, B3 and B4 (pages 35 and 

36), the MC-II with pulse output is rated by Canadian Standards Association as Intrinsically Safe for 

Class I, Division 1, Groups A,B,C and D.

 

 

 

Pulse Input - Intrinsically Safe

 

The pulse input to this card is obtained from the “Pulse Out” of the totalizer card. It will appear in the form of 

a square wave pulse.

 

Pulse Output - Intrinsically Safe

 

The pulse output from this card is provided in the form of a dry contact from a relay, transistor open-collector, 

or an emitter/collector opto-isolated output. A 14-pin socket on the card is provided to install either the relay 

or component plug “module”, whichever is specified.

 

Electrical Specifications - Intrinsically Safe

 

Current Required 

10 mA

 

Relay Contact Rating 

200 mA, 6 VDC 

Open Collector Module 

200 mA, 6 VDC 

Opto-Isolated Module 

100 mA, 6 VDC
