Installation Requirement for HGRS Thermal Mass Flow Meter

1)  The instrument should be installed away from the elbow, obstructions, reducers, valves, in order to ensure a steady flow field. Requirement to upstream straight pipe length and downstream straight pipe length as the following diagram shown( D is pipeline diameter):

2)  When installing for HGRS Thermal Gas Mass Flow Meter, the short RTD sensor (RTD1) should face the direction of airflow, see the following diagram:

3)  HGRS Thermal Mass Flow Meter’s sensor is actually a gas flow velocity sensor. Gas flows in pipeline, flow velocity of each point in the pipeline is different, generally the flow velocity at pipe’s wall is very slow but very fast at pipe’s center. So flow velocity at the detected point should be the average velocity throughout the pipe, the accuracy of average flow velocity point is directly related to accuracy of measurement. In order to get an optimal insertion length to make measurement more accurate, please supply detailed process condition before ordering.

Main display interface of HGRS Thermal Mass Flow Meter

When the instrument is powered on, it will automatically do self-test, if self-test is ok, screen will display “Thermal Mass Flow meter” , then appears the main display interface as follow:

1:  “AL1” means channel1 alarming, “AL2” means channel2 alarming, user can select one or two variables to set limit alarm, the variables that can be set to alarm are instant flow rate, flow velocity, temperature.

2:  When the measured value exceeds the set value range, this area will display “OV”, which is the identifier of variable value overflow.

3: When the total flow exceeds 10000000, this area will display ”1K”, which means the actual total flow equal to total flow display value multiply by 1000.

4: Communication status indication, the first 3 digit is instrument’s address code;

The fourth digit is check digit, 0: none parity, 1: odd parity, 2: even parity;

The fifth digit is baud rate code, 0: 1200 bps, 1: 2400 bps, 2: 4800 bps, 3: 9600 bps.

5: Instantaneous flow rate, maximum display is 9999999

6: Total flow, maximum display of integer area is 8 digits, decimal area is 4 digits.

7: The current flow velocity (unit: Nm/s)

8: This area display flow rate percentage or temperature ( it depends on the configuration of the instrument )
