1 INTRODUCTION
1.1 SYSTEM DESCRIPTION OF THE F014-P
Functions and features
The flowrate / totalizer model F014-P is a microprocessor driven instrument designed to display
flowrate, total and accumulated total as well as to generate a scaled pulse according the
accumulated total.
This product has been designed with a focus on:
•
ultra-low power consumption to allow long-life battery powered applications
(type PB / PC);
•
intrinsic safety for use in hazardous applications (type XI);
•
several mounting possibilities with GRP or aluminum enclosures for industrial surroundings,
•
ability to process all types of flowmeter signals;
•
transmitting possibilities with one configurable output.
Flowmeter input
This manual describes the F014-P with a pulse type input from the flowmeter "-P version". Other
versions are available to process (0)4-20mA or 0-10V flowmeter signals.
One flowmeter with a passive or active pulse, Namur or coil signal output can be connected to the
F014-P. To power the sensor, several options are available.

Configuration of the F014-P
The F014-P has been designed to be implemented in many types of applications. For that reason, a
SETUP-level is available to configure your F014-P according to your specific requirements.
It includes several important features, such as K-Factor, measurement units, signal selection etc. All
setting are stored in EEPROM memory and will not be lost in the event of power failure. To extend
the battery-life time, please use of the power-management functions as described in chapter 3.2.3.
Display information
The F014-P has a large transflective LCD with all kinds of symbols and digits to display measuring
units, status information, trend-indication and key-word messages.
Flowrate and totals can be displayed either with the small 8mm digits or with the 17mm digits.
A backup of the total and accumulated total in EEPROM memory is made every minute.
Options
The following options are available: intrinsic safety, mechanical relay or active outputs, power- and
sensor-supply options, panel-mount, wall-mount and weather-proof enclosures, flame proof
enclosure and LED backlight.
