Safety
About this manual
This manual contains information and warnings that must be observed to keep the
model MGG10C/MGG14C MagneW FLEX+/PLUS+ Flowmeter operating safely. Correct
installation, correct operation and regular maintenance are essential to ensure safety
while using this device.
For the correct and safe use of this owmeter, it is essential that both operating and
service personnel follow generally accepted safety procedures in addition to the safety
precautions specied in this manual.
The following symbols are used in this manual to alert you to possible hazards:
WARNING
Denotes a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided could result in
death or serious injury.
CAUTION
Denotes a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided could result in
minor injury or damage to device.
Safety messages
Carefully read this section before installing or operating this device.
WARNING
ELECTRIC SHOCK HAZARD! Turn the power supply OFF before opening the
converter cover.
CAUTION
Switch the control equipment to manual control before terminating owmeter
operation and shutting o the output to the control equipment. This action
prevents the power shut-o from directly aecting the control equipment.

CAUTION
Install the owmeter in a location with an ambient temperature of -25 °C to
60 °C (-13 °F to 140 °F) and an ambient humidity of 5 to 100% RH to prevent
equipment malfunction or output errors.
CAUTION
Do not install the owmeter near high-current power lines, motors or transformers
to prevent damage from electromagnetic induction, which can cause equipment
malfunction or output errors.
CAUTION
Do not install the owmeter in a location subject to direct sunlight, wind, rain,
severe vibration, or in a highly corrosive atmosphere. The converter and detector
can be damaged.
CAUTION
Be sure to ground the welding power transformer when welding near the
owmeter to avoid output errors.
CAUTION
DO NOT use the owmeter to ground a welder. It can damage the owmeter.

Azbil Corporation Introduction
Model MGG10C/14C - MagneW FLEX+/PLUS+ Converter 1-3
Analog output and digital output
Introduction
The choice of either an analog output or digital output system conguration depends
on whether or not you want to use the digitally enhanced (DE) communication mode.
Analog output (4 to 20 mA DC output)
In analog mode, the owmeter sends the instantaneous ow rate as a proportional 4 to
20 mA output signal to a controller or a recorder in the control system.
Digital output (DE output)
A owmeter in the DE mode can communicate in a direct digital fashion with Azbil
Corpotation or Honeywell DCS system. The digital signal can include ow rate,
owmeter database, and self-diagnostics.
Switching output mode
The analog/digital output mode is selectable.

Introduction Azbil Corporation
1-4 Model MGG10C/14C - MagneW FLEX+/PLUS+ Converter
System conguration for analog output (4 to 20 mA DC output)
Introduction
In the analog mode, the owmeter can be congured with or without SFC
communciations.
WITHOUT the communication function
The DC power supply that transmits the analog output, when the owmeter is used
without SFC communications, is built into the product.
The analog output signal is transmitted directly to the host control system.
• Analog output range: 0.8 to 22.4 mA (-20 to +115%)
• Resistive load: 0 to 600 W
WITH HART communication function
The DC power supply that transmits the analog output and HART communication,
when the owmeter is used with the HART communications, is built into the product.
• Analog output range: 3.2 to 22.4 mA (-5 to +115%)
• Resistive load: 0 to 600 W
WITH the communication function (SFC or HART)
When the owmeter is used in the analog mode with SFC communications, an
external power supply (DC power) and external resistive load (minimum 250 W) is
required. HART communication is also available with the external power supply and
resistive load.
• Analog output range: 3.2 to 22.4 mA (-5 to +115%)
• DC power: 16 to 45V DC
• Maximum value of external resistive load is calculated:
CAUTION
For systems WITH the SFC communication function, failure to install the external
power supply and the external resistive load, will prevent the analog output from
being accepted on the receiving instrument side. Be sure to install the external
power supply and the external resistive load as specied.

System Conguration for Digital Output (DE Output)
System conguration
Figure 1-5 shows a system conguration in which the ow rate measured by the
unit, the database in the unit, and self-diagnostics are output using the DE (Digital
Enhancement) protocol (rules for digital signal communication).
In this system, the DE protocol-based digital signal transmitted from the unit is
output to the control system after conversion to an analog signal at the smart protocol
converter (SPC). Or, the digital signal is directly transmitted to the control system, if
it is capable of receiving the DE protocol-based signal directly.
