VOLTAGE SELECTION SENSOR SUPPLY
For Intrinsically Safe applications: read chapter 5.
Type PB / PC / PX (AP) - battery powered and output loop-powered applications:
Terminal 11 provides a limited supply voltage of 3.2 V DC (coil signals 1.2V) for the signal output of
the flowmeter.
Note:
This voltage MAY NOT be used to power the flowmeters electronics, converters etc, as it will
not provide adequate sustained power! All energy used by the flowmeters pick-up will directly
influence the battery life-time. It is strongly advised to use a "zero power" pickup such as a coil or
reed-switch when operating without external power. It is possible to use some low power NPN or
PNP output signals, but the battery life time will be significantly reduced (consult your distributor).
Type PD / PF / PM: Sensor supply: 1.2 - 3.2V - 8.2V - 12V or 24 V DC:
With this option, a real power supply for the sensor is available. The flowmeter can be powered with
8.2 - 12 or 24 V DC.
Total power consumption PD: max. 50mA@24V and PF / PM: max. 400mA@24V.
The voltage is selected with the three switches inside the enclosure.
Warning: be sure that all the leads to the terminals are disconnected from the unit when
the internal plastic protection cover has been removed !
HIGH VOLTAGE 400V !! NEVER connect the mains power supply to the unit when the
plastic protection cover has been removed !!!
To access the voltage selection switches you must:
1. Remove the terminals to the field wiring
2. Remove the internal plastic cover.
A circuit board with four mini switches is now visible.
Depending on the type of F132-P you will find the switches either on the left side (type PD) or on the
right side (type PF / PM) of the circuit board. See figure 11 below for details.

Function switch 1:
voltage selection sensor A - terminal 11.
Function switch 2:
not used in this model.
Function switch 3+4:
the combination of these switches determine the voltage as indicated.
Do move switch 1 and / or switch 2 to the OFF position to enable the
selected voltage with switch 3+4.
