GF Signet 5500 User manual

CAUTION!
Never connect 115 VAC or 230 VAC to rear power
terminals. High voltage AC will damage instrument and
void warranty.
CAUTION!
• Remove power to unit
before wiring input and
output connections.
• Follow instructions
carefully to avoid
personal injury.

7. Relay Connections
Two internal relay contact sets (COM, NO, and NC) may be used
for external device control. Front panel LED annunciators indicate
the activation status of each relay. Each relay can control up to two
devices simultaneously, as shown. Relay operation modes include
Low alarm, High alarm, Pulse, and Totalizer (sec. 8.5).
Common device connections include:
• Pulse mode - metering pump control
• Pulse mode - solenoid valve control
• Low or High mode - warning lamps
• Low or High mode - bells or sirens
• Low or High mode - external heavy-duty relay
Wiring Example Right
Device A IS powered when relay 2 is de-energized (front panel
LED "off"). Power is discontinued when the relay 2 setpoint is
reached (front panel LED "on"). Device B IS NOT powered when
the relay 2 is de-energized. Power is applied after the relay 2
setpoint is reached.

To isolate output and prevent ground loop problems:
1. Use monitor device with isolated inputs, or

5. Totalizer Reset Connections (sec. 8.3)
Technical Notes:
• Use 2-conductor shielded twisted pair cable for reset lines up to
30 m (100 ft) max.
• External reset switch overrides software security feature
(section 9.3 I).
• To reduce the possibility of AC noise interference, isolate AC
power lines from reset lines.
Technical Notes:
• Maximum relay contact ratings:
5 A @ 30 VDC,
5 A @ 125 VAC, or
3 A @ 250 VAC
• An external heavy-duty relay must be used for devices with surge
or operating currents that exceed the above specifications.

4Signet 5500 Flow Monitor
A. LOW alarm mode
The output is active (relay energized) when the flow drops below the
setpoint, and is inactive (relay de-energized) when the flow rises
above the setpoint plus hysteresis (sec. 9.2 F-G, 9.2 J-K).
• Auxiliary output: ideal for external device
inputs (sec. 4)
• Relay outputs: ideal for external warning
lamps, sirens, etc. (sec. 7)
B. HIGH alarm mode
The output is active (relay energized) when the flow rises above the
setpoint and is inactive (relay de-engergized) when the flow falls
below the setpoint plus hysteresis (sec. 9.2 F-G, 9.2 J-K).
• Auxiliary output: ideal for external device
inputs (sec. 4)
• Relay outputs: ideal for external warning
lamps, sirens, etc. (sec. 7)
Flow
Flow
C. PULSE mode
The output is active (relay energized) for the programmed pulse width each time the programmed pulse volume is measured by the flow
sensor (sec 9.2 H-I, 9.2 L-M).
• Auxiliary output: ideal for external device control (sec. 4)
• Relay outputs: ideal for metering pump or solenoid valve control (sec. 7)

Totalizer function
The output emits an adjustable signal pulse width for each whole engineeing unit measured by the flow sensor (also displayed on totalizer).
To enable the totalizer function, the operator must set the relay or auxiliary pulse volume setpoint to 1.0000 (sec. 9.2 H, 9.2 L).

8.3 Totalizer reset (sec. 5): This feature allows the operator to reset the totalizer with a dry switch contact closure at any time. The
external reset switch overrides software security feature (sec. 5).
8.4 4 to 20 mA output (sec. 6): The 4 to 20 mA output is internally powered by the instrument. 4 mA and 20 mA setpoints are fully
adjustable within the programmed flow range (sec. 11 B). The output can also be reverse spanned.
8.5 Relay 1 and 2 outputs (sec 7): Relay outputs 1 and 2 can be independently configured as Low alarm, High alarm, Pulse or Totalizer
output. Refer to diagrams A - C above for operation details.
8. Output Functions
This section gives a detailed description of all 5500 output functions.
8.1 Sensor pulse output (sec. 3): This output emits an open-collector frequency equal to the sensor input. The output connects directly
to a second Signet instrument for expanded process control with a single sensor input (sec. 3.1). The output is an open-collector type that
requires an external pull up resistor and power supply for other instrument inputs (sec. 3.2).
8.2 Auxiliary pulse output (sec. 4): The auxiliary output can be configured as Low alarm, High alarm, Pulse or Totalizer output. Output
logic can be selected for either active low (factory default) or active high operation (sec. 9.3 J). The auxiliary output is an open-collector
type that requires an external pull-up resistor and power supply to operate. Refer to diagrams A - C below for operation details.

13. Troubleshooting
Display Problem Solution
-- -- -- -- Display timebase too large
Change flow timebase (S=Seconds, M=Minutes, H=Hours,
D=Days) in CALIBRATE menu to a smaller value (e.g. GPD to
GPM)
Check settings
for Relay X Relay 1 or 2 pulse width too large for
frequency input or pulse volume too small
Reduce Relay 1 or 2 pulse width setting (sec. 9.2 I) or increase
pulse volume setting (sec. 9.2 H)
Check settings
for AUX output Auxiliary output pulse width too large for
frequency input or pulse volume too small
Reduce auxiliary output pulse width setting (sec. 9.2 M) or
increase pulse volume setting (sec. 9.2 L).
Must be between
0.0001 - 99999
Relay 1, Relay 2, or Auxiliary output (AUX)
pulse volume setpoint must be within
0.0001 - 99999.
Enter volumetric setpoint within 0.0001 - 99999. engineering
units (sec. 9.2 H or 9.2 L)
Must be between
0.10 - 999
Relay 1, Relay 2, or Auxiliary output (AUX)
pulse width must be within 0.10 -
999 seconds
Enter pulse width within 0.10 - 999 seconds
(sec. 9.2 I or 9.2 M)
Flow K-Factor
can not be zero Flow display K-Factor cannot be zero Enter K-Factor greater than zero (sec. 9.2 C)
Total K-Factor
can not be zero Totalizer K-Factor cannot be zero Enter K-Factor greater than zero (sec. 9.2 E)
SETUP READ ERROR
Press any Key Power fault occurred while saving setup
menu entry
Press any key to reload factory defaults then reprogram flow
system setup parameters. Note: Totalizer displays remain
unchanged and will resume after instrument reset.
14. Maintenance
Clean the instrument case and front panel with a soft cloth and mild liquid soap solution.
