Wire Connections for the Endress Hauser Promag P
50/53 Series Flow Meter
120v powered meter shown –meter must be ordered the correct type with
terminals 24 and 25 setup as Frequency Output (pulses)
Page 13

1.Install the Black Wire from the EH Flow Meter into any terminal
marked GND as shown in the picture above.
2.Install the Red Wire from the EH Flow Meter into the terminal marked
FLW/INT1 as shown in the picture above.
3.Using the menu on the EH flowmeter, be sure that the display of the
flowmeter is set to gallons per minute. Then, using the menu on the EH
flowmeter, set the pulse output to 10 gallons per pulse. (you will need
to enter that info in the crop link config page later)
4.Proceed to Page 42 of this manual for power wire connections.
