3.3  Device variants and connections

The OPTICHECK is supplied with all the connection cables for IFC050 -  IFC070 - IFC100 - IFC300 
and a USB cable for connection to the tablet.

Additionally there are two  adaptors, the  I/O "parking" adaptor for the I/O field cable and the 
"parking" adaptor for the sensor wires. Both are used for protection of short circuiting and 
marking the cables (easier reconnection).

 There is no need for a mains connection for the OPTICHECK, since the measuring system uses 
the power connection via the USB connection. The device under test (DUT) must be mains (or 
battery) powered during verifications.

The converters described in the next sections can be tested and certified. The OPTICHECK can 
perform a fully automated verification on magnetic flowmeters in combination with these 
converters. In this mode the accuracy of the converter and all electric data of the primary head is 
verified.

The separate sections describes in following order;

Compact and remote versions with illustrations

Combinations of converter and sensor to expect

Connecting the different cables

Depending on the selected verification type of measurement, a level 1 or a level 2 verification can 
be chosen.
A level 1 verification has fewer cables to connect and this makes it easier to connect / reconnect. 
In this case there is less depth of verification. 

A level 2 verification is possible if all connections on all terminals are made (GDC, sensor &  
I/O's), including installations of the electronic inserts (IFC300/IFC070).

A detailed test report and certificate is available and  printable after verification.

For more information see chapter;  Electrical connections of the manual.
