Setting Frequency.
The FMG-1000-MAW converts a train of
off/on pulses from the flow sensor into a continuous milliAmp
signal that ranges from 4 mA at zero flow to 20 mA at the desired
maximum flow. The desired maximum is determined by the user
and entered as a frequency as follows:
1)
2)
3)
4)
Setting Averaging Time. For most applications, this step can
be ignored, as the standard setting will work fine. However,
when a particularly steady output signal is desired, or in
large pipe, a larger averaging period may be desirable. Note
however that the averaging period requires a tradeoff, since
a longer averaging period implies a slower response time. If
steady signal is more important than fast response, increase
the averaging time as desired. See the diagram below for the
switch positions and their corresponding times.
Decide what flow rate should represent the top of the
scale. This is ordinarily the maximum expected flow, or
a value just above it, in gallons per minute.
Locate the K-factor of the flow sensor (found on the
meter or fitting, or in the instruction manual, depending
on meter model). The K-factor is the number of pulses
the flow sensor produces per gallon of flow.
Calculate frequency, using this formula:
K-Factor x Top Flow (GPM) = Frequency
60
Enter the frequency using the four rotary Frequency
switches. Note the decimal point between the third
and fourth switches.
Checking Calibration
Normally it should not be necessary to check calibration, since
the digital design of this unit virtually eliminates drift. However,
there are two types of calibration check that can be performed.
Look at the diagram below to locate the 4 and 20 mA force
switches. To force the 4 mA output, put its switch in the up
position. Check the current output at the Power terminals, and
if necessary trim to 4.00 mA using the appropriate trimpot.
Return the switch to the down position, and repeat the process
with the 20 mA switch.
In an installation with an estimated maximun flow rate
of about 150 GPM, a flow rate of 170 GPM is selected
as the full-scale maximum, the flow at which the current
loop will register 20 mA.
In this example, the K-factor (found on the meter or
fitting, or in the manual) is “K = 54.50”.

Rounding to one decimal point, enter 154.4 on the
rotary switches by turning the rotary switch pointer to
the desired digit.
