MFX
NOTE: The MFX flow meter system requires a full pipe of liquid
before a successful startup can be completed. Do not attempt to
make adjustments or change configurations until a full pipe is
verified.
Procedure:
1. Verify that all wiring is properly connected and routed as
described in Part 1 of this manual.
2. Verify that the MagProbe sensor is properly mounted as
described in Part 2 of this manual.
3. Apply power. The display of a MFXD2 will display a software
version number and then all of the segments will illuminate in
succession. The meter will then enter run mode.
4. Verify that the following parameters have been entered into the
MFX Flow Meter in the BASIC MENU (See Section 3 of this
manual):
x UNITS—either ENGLISH or METRIC
x K-FACTOR (as it appears on the MagProbe sensor)
x PIPE Outside Diameter
x PIPE Wall Thickness
x PIPE Liner Thickness
x RATE unit selected
x RATE interval selected
5. Once these parameters have been entered and saved, the flow
meter will begin to measure and display flow rate. Section 3 of
this manual describes in greater detail the configuration and
programming of the MFX instrument.
