Vortex flow meter fault - abnormal current output - Just Measure it

Vortex flow meter fault – abnormal current output

The current output is not normal

(1) Three-wire current, current output abnormal

● Pay attention to the wiring: 24V, COM, IOUT, I+ (optional)

Measure the voltage between IUOT and COM, if there is, there is current, use a multimeter to measure the current again, if not, the board is faulty.

(2) Two-wire current wiring, the meter does not light up without output or the meter does not light up with output

● Confirm the wiring, connect 24V, GND or other

● Multimeter to further test power supply and output

● Board failure return to factory or send replacement board

(3) The flow rate displayed on the system does not match the meter

● Confirm that the upper limit of the system is the same as the meter setting

Use a multimeter to test if the current corresponds to the flow rate displayed on the meter, using the following formula

q – instantaneous flow rate (m3/h) Q – upper limit of flow rate (m3/h) A – current current output value (mA)

Interference leads to the general phenomenon: the meter shows normal output shows full range or the meter shows normal output jumps around

Solutions.

● The shield of the two/three-wire current line must be grounded

If the source of interference is the power supply, replace the power supply.

If there is a problem with the wiring, change the wiring line

● Add signal isolator for line crosstalk, add a filter for the power supply or wiring problems

● Return circuit board to factory or send replacement board
