24V Local Power Output
For your convenience a 24 Volt Local Power Output has been provided that can be used to
power the various outputs as listed above. Install a Jumper Wire from the posi ve terminal of
the Local Power Output to the posi ve terminal of the desired output and a Jumper Wire from
the nega ve terminal of the Local Power Output to the nega ve terminal of the desired out
‐
puts to provide power to the output.
Note: Use of local power will result in a loss of isola on.

NOT AVAILABLE FOR CENTRIFEEDER VIB
The CentriFlow® Meter Electronics is capable of outpu ng an analog signal. This signal is a 4
‐
20 mA instantaneous isolated signal. The signal output is propor onal to the Electronic Full
Scale Flow Rate. For example, if the Electronic Full Scale Flow Rate were calibrated to be 300
lb/min, then an output of 12 mA would correspond to a Flow Rate of (12
‐
4)/(20
‐
4) x 300 = 150
lb./min or 50% of the Electronic Full Scale Flow Rate. Since this output is directly related to
the Electronic Full Scale Flow Rate any change in Calibra on to change the Electronic Full Scale
Flow Rate would result in a change in the signal so as to retain the propor onality. Thus, if the
Electronic Full Scale Flow Rate were changed from 300 lb./min to 500 lb./min, then a 20 mA
output would correspond to the 500 lb/min
fl
ow rate. Connec on to this output signal will be
made according to the CUSTOMER CONNECTIONS diagram below. It is recommended that the
wires for this signal be routed through the conduit housing the power connec on. It is recom
‐
mended that this analog output be used for Control purposes and not for Trending unless a
signal

Alarm Output
Relay Output
The relay can be used to trigger alarms which warn the operator that a batch is complete or
that the
fl
ow rate has exceeded a threshold. The output is programmable to be assigned for
rate or count. When assigned to the count, the relay can have a user selectable on me
(dura on) or can be latched un l reset.
