Power Supply Requirements
The FlowPulse requires a DC 18-28V power supply. The typical power
consumption is 2.5W and the maximum power consumption should not
exceed 3W. The power supply should also be correctly fused at 250mA.
Care should be exercised when connecting the power supply by ensuring
the correct terminals and voltage rating are used to avoid damaging the
device.
Cable Screen and Earth Requirement
A screened multi-core cable should be used (minimum conductor size of
0.5mm². The cable screen should be connected to the enclosure at the cable
entry point via the cable gland, see figure below. The screen of the cable
should be earthed at the other end. The supplied cable gland is
suitable for
cables up to 10mm O.D.
Important Notice
All shipping cartons should be opened carefully. When using a box cutter,
do not plunge the blade deeply into the box, as it could potentially cut or
scratch equipment components. Carefully remove equipment from each
carton, checking it against the packing list before discarding any packing
material. If there is any shortage or obvious shipping damage to the
equipment, report it immediately to Pulsar Measurement.
