Preparing commissioning
The product in basic status is in RUN mode. The current measurement values are
displayed. The basic status can be reached from other modes by:
–
Pressing Edit button for 3 seconds
–
Expiration of monitoring time, timeout
1. Switch on operating voltage.
Ä
The SFAB is in RUN mode.
2. Check the SFAB settings

Description
Automatic return to the basic status (RUN mode) when the monitoring
time has expired (here 80 seconds)
In order to return manually to the basic status (RUN mode), press the
EDIT button for 3 seconds.
Generate flow rate (for teaching the measured value - here Flow 1)
The symbol on the display flashes (here OutB)

Press key (here A key).
Press A key or B key. SFAB switches to the setting indicated by the
arrows.
Press A and B keys simultaneously.
Press key (here A key) and EDIT button simultaneously.
Press A key or B key to set the desired value.

RUN mode
The following values are displayed in RUN mode:
–
Measurement values for the flow rate (in l/min, scfm or l/h)
–
Measurement values for air consumption (in m³, scf or l)
–
Signal states of the switching outputs OutA, OutB (set, not set)
If the measured value display flashes, one of the following errors has occurred:
• Measured value outside the permissible measuring range
• Incorrect tubing
7.6
SHOW mode
In SHOW mode, the current settings for the switching outputs Out A and Out B are
displayed.
The SFAB must be in RUN mode.
•
To start the SHOW mode for the respective switching output, press the A key
(OutA) or B key (OutB).
If there are errors, the corresponding error numbers are displayed first after
pressing the A / B pushbutton.
•
To display the settings one by one, press the A/B pushbutton repeatedly.
When all settings have been displayed, the SFAB goes back into RUN mode when
the A pushbutton / B pushbutton are pressed again and displays the current
measurement value for the corresponding output.
Thus, the SHOW mode can also be used to switch the display, e. g. to switch
between the displayed measured values for a combination of air consumption
measurement and flow rate measurement.
The following settings will be displayed for outA:
–
With flow measurement [FLW]:
–
Switching function [threshold value or window comparator]
–
Switching point [SP], Switching points [SP.Lo] and [SP.Hi]
–
Hysteresis [Hy]
–
Switching element function [no/nc] (N/O contact/N/C contact)
–
Minimum flow rate [F.Lo] (flow low)
–
Maximum flow rate [F.Hi] (flow high)
To delete the minimum or maximum value, press the EDIT button.
–
For air consumption measurement [ConS]:
–
Air consumption switching impulse [CI]
–
Switching element function [no/nc] (N/O contact/N/C contact)
–
Minimum value flow rate [F.Lo]
–
Maximum value flow rate [F.Hi]
To delete the minimum or maximum value, press the EDIT button.
The following settings will be displayed for OutB:
–
Switching function [threshold value or window comparator]
–
Switching point [SP], Switching points [SP.Lo] and [SP.Hi]
–
Hysteresis [Hy]
–
Switching element function [no/nc] (N/O contact/N/C contact)
–
Status colour change [bLUE/rON/rOFF]
–
Minimum value flow rate [F.Lo]
–
Maximum value flow rate [F.Hi]
To delete the minimum or maximum value, press the EDIT button.
