Detection of gas bubbles
Gas bubbles in the measuring medium influence the flow
measurement values and the measuring accuracy.
It is possible to issue a gas bubble alarm if the actual gas bubble
value exceeds the configured threshold.
This alarm message is shown on the display. The digital output
triggers an alarm if configured accordingly.
Requirements for use:
• Nominal diameter DN 10 to DN 300 (
⅜
to 12 in).
• Conductivity of the measuring medium:
20 to 20000
μ
S/cm.
Installation conditions:
• The flowmeter sensor can be installed either horizontally
or vertically. Vertical installation is preferable.
Setup
The gas bubble detection must be matched to the measuring
medium on site.

Gas Bubble On/Off
Activate the function.
Start Adj Gas Bubble
Automatic adjustment of the Gas Bubble
Detection function.
Prior to starting, make sure that:
• There is no flow
• Sensor is completely filled and free of gas
bubbles
Gas Bubble Threshold
Manual fine adjustment of the switching
threshold.
Monitoring the conductivity
The conductivity of the liquid can be monitored by setting
minimum / maximum alarm thresholds.
As soon as the alarm thresholds are up-scaled, the digital output
triggers an alarm, if configured accordingly.
The conductivity is available as 4 to 20 mA output (option card).
Requirements for use:
• Conductivity of the measuring medium:
20 to 20000
μ
S/cm.
• Nominal diameter DN 10 to 300 (
⅜
to 12 in).
Installation conditions:
• The measuring electrodes must be free of coverings.
Setup
The conductivity monitoring must be matched to the measuring
medium on site.

Adj. Cond. Value
Measure the conductivity of the measuring
medium using a conductivity meter on-site and
enter the measured value here.
Cond. Iout Min Value
Set the 4 mA and 20 mA value which correspond
to the upper and lower range of the conductivity
value.
Cond. Iout Max Value
Cond.Min Alarm Value
Set the alarm for minimum and maximum
conductivity. In the case of down-scale, an alarm
is triggered.
