3.8 Start-up • Check that the flowmeter has been correctly installed. With separate systems, check before initial start-up that the correct
converter (UFC III F) is used with the correct flow sensor (UFS III F).
• Order No., see instrument type plates
• Meter size, Function 3.1.5
• Primary constant GK, Function 3.1.6
• Flow direction, Function 3.1.7
• When powered, the signal converter operates in the measuring mode. TEST, NO ERROR and IDENT NO. _ _ _ _ _ _ _ of the
signal converter appear in succession on the display. This is followed by display of the actual flow rate and/or the internal
count on a continuous or alternating basis (depending on setting, see Function 3.03 Display or Function 1.02 Display).
3.9 Operating the
signal
converter
Front panel and operating keys
The front panel and its operating keys are accessible after removing the front (glass) cover of the electronics section using the
special wrench supplied with the flowmeter.
When removing the cover, do not damage the screw thread and the gasket, never allow dirt to accumulate, and make sure that
they are well greased using Teflon grease at all times. A damaged gasket must be replaced immediately!
1. Display 1st (top) line, measured value
2. Display 2nd (middle) line, units of measured value
3. Display 3rd (bottom) line with markers ▼
to identify actual displayed value, from left to right:
Flow rate
Velocity Of Sound VOS
4. Compass field for error indication
5. Operating keys for programming the signal converter
6. Magnetic sensors to program the signal converter by means of a hand-held bar magnet
(optional) without having to open the housing. To prevent change of settings with the
cover in place sensors are only fitted for the 2 right most keys.
The function of the sensors is as follows: the right most sensor is equivalent to the right
key and the top sensor is equivalent to the center key.
The converter can display several types of measured values (depending on the programming), indicated by the markers at the
display bottom line. They can be selected manually at any time by pressing the ↑ key or they are automatically cycled at 5 second
intervals.
Errors are indicated by flashing display lines and/or by the compass field. For a description of the errors and what to do, see main
“error” menu.
