SYSTEM DESCRIPTION OF THE F132-P
Functions and features
The batch controller model F132-P is a microprocessor driven instrument designed for batching and
filling of small batch sizes up to large quantities as well as displaying total and accumulated total.
This product has been designed with a focus on:
ultra-low power consumption to allow long-life battery powered applications (type PB / PC),
intrinsic safety for use in hazardous applications (type XI),
several mounting possibilities with GRP or aluminum enclosures for industrial surroundings,
ability to process all types of flowmeter signals,
receipt printer interface to print completed batch receipts.
Flowmeter input
This manual describes the unit with a pulse type input from the flowmeter "-P version". Other
versions are available to process (0)4-20mA or 0-10V flowmeter signals.
One flowmeter with a passive or active pulse, Namur or sine wave (coil) signal output can be
connected to the F132-P. To power the sensor, several options are available.
Standard outputs
Two transistor or relay outputs: for two-stage control or one-stage control.
Receipt printer interface
A printer interface to allow printing of receipts that go along with completed batches.
