INTRODUCTION
The Badger® Data Industrial® 3050 Energy Monitor is
an economical full-featured compact unit designed for
sub-metering applications. The two line x 16 character
alphanumeric displays any combination of Energy
Rate, Energy total, Flow Rate or Flow Total. Both pre-
programmed and user defined units of measure can be
configured by the user.
The Series 3050 accepts pulse, sine wave, or linear
analog input signals. Like all Data Industrial flow
monitors, the Series 3050 may be field calibrated by
the user. For Data Industrial sensors “K” and “offset”
numbers are entered, while other pulse or frequency
output sensors may use a “K” factor only. Analog inputs
are fully programmable for slope and intercept.
The unit requires two temperature units and can accept
10 K ohm thermistors, 100Ώ Three Wire RTD’s or user
defined custom thermistors or RTD’s.
The panel meter has a NEMA 4X rated front panel and
conforms to DIN Standard dimensions,
96 mm X 96 mm, for meter sizes and panel cutouts.
Optional NEMA 4 wall mount also available.
The user can program the flow sensor from the front
panel by entering a "K" and offset or only a "K" factor,
depending on the flow sensor used.
Programming is menu driven. All data is entered using
the LCD/keypad interface. A password gate is included
to prevent unauthorized access to programming
parameters. Programming flexibility is extended to
units of measure. In addition to several factory units of
measure, the Series 3000 software permits the custom
units for rate and total to be created by the installer.
The Series 3050 provides one Form C solid-state
relay, and one solid-state switch output. Both are fully
programmable as either Pulse/Volume, or Set-point
control based Flow Rate, Flow Total, Energy Rate,
Energy Total, Temperature 1, Temperature 2, or Delta
T. For pulse output, the installer can program both the
resolution, and the pulse width. Set-Point control is
extremely versatile with fully independent set and release
points each with its own time delay.
LED’s located on the front panel indicate status of both
the Relay and Pulse Outputs.
All calibration information, units of measure and flow
totals are stored in a non-volatile memory that does not
require battery backup for data retention.
Options available:
• Analog Output
• USB
• RS485
• BACnet
• Modbus
• Wall Mounting
INsTallaTION
Mechanical Installation:
The Series 3050 can be either panel mounted or wall
mounted.
location:
In any mounting arrangement the primary concern is
easy viewing, and convenient operation of the keypad.
The unit generates very little heat, so no consideration
need be given to cooling. However, prolonged direct
sunlight can damage the front panel so some level of
shading is recommended, especially if installed in a
tropical climate.
Panel Mount Installation
The Model 3050 Panel Mount is designed for through
panel mounting, which allows access to the back of
the unit. The 3050 is secured to the panel by two draw
brackets shown in Figure 1 on the next page. Refer to
Figure 1 for flow monitor and panel cutout dimensions.
Wall Mount Installation
The Badger® Data Industrial® Model 3050 Wall Mount is
designed to mount onto a wall with four bolts or screws.
The mounting hole pattern and box dimensions for the
Model 3050 NEMA 4 waII mount are shown in Figure 2.
