transit. First of all, thoroughly read the handling precautions described in this section. For topics other
than those covered in this section, refer to the respective sections of this manual.
If at any time in the future you seek our assistance, contact the nearest sales office in your area.
1.1 Confirming the Nameplate
The instrument is adjusted to individual specifi-
cations before shipment from our factory. Model
number appears on the nameplate attached to the
top of the housing.
Make sure to see that the instrument you received
conforms to the General Specifications (page 16)
and the Product Code Explanation (page 8).
◆When you inquire, supply complete informa-
tion as to the product name, model number,
product number, ratings, and other pertinent
information.

2. GENERAL
Using the most advanced electronic tehcnologies, this digital instrument has been developed specifically
to meet the most demanding gas flow measurement applications where accuracy is the prime
requirement.
In response to the gas flowrate, temperature, and pressure information arriving from the sensing terminal,
such as a flowmeter, it calculates gas flow, reduced to the equivalent volume flow under standard
conditions, and totalizes the flow.
In addition to meter error curve correction capabilities, a correction factor Χas a quadratic function of
temperature and pressure is introduced, giving you increased freedom to optimize compensated
calculation.
An analog output and instant flowrate (corrected for meter error and temperature) output are additional
provisions. With a model dedicated only to flow and pressure inputs, the instrument can also carry out
calculations as a pressure compensator with temperature value fixed.
2.1 Features
(1) Changing the meter factor, ranges of temperature, pressure, or other parameters, of the companion
flowmeter is simple by keystrokes on the front-panel keypad, or by inserting an IC card into the slot.
(2) Built around a microprocessor, the instrument carries out calculations entirely in digital signal
processing circuits to achieve a high degree of accuracy and reliability.
(3) Variables, such as temperature and pressure, can be reviewed on command with the front panel
keypad, whether or not calculation is in progress.
(4) A nonvolatile memory (E2PROM) retains all parameters and variables. Variables are resettable
following a power cycle or reset if so configured.

6. INTERNAL COMPONENTS AND FUNCTIONS
6.1 Front Panel
6.1.1 Display
The display is a 128 ×128-dot multiple function display capable of showing the data, units of measure,
error messages, and other information at the same time. (The display is backlighted.)
6.1.2 On-Screen Menu Items
The units of measurement vary with configuration. Their selection is made in the SET mode. Available
menu items are:
(1) Uncorrected total flow (TOTAL COUNT)
Incoming flow pulses are calibrated for meter error, integrated before correction for temperature and
pressure, and the obtained totalized flow is indicated. Resolution, or the minimum unit of measure-
ment, which varies with customer specifications, is set up with front-panel keys. This unit automatically
becomes identical with the output pulse unit.
While the total flow is retained irrespective of power cycling, it is resettable to zero following a power
cycle if so configured in the SYS mode.
(2) Corrected total flow (TOTAL COUNT(C))
The reading calibrated for meter error and corrected for temperature and pressure is integrated.
Other specifications remain the same as (1).
(3) Uncorrected instant flowrate (FLOW RATE)
The instant flowrate calibrated for meter error without temperature and pressure correction is indi-
cated.
(4) Corrected instant flowrate (FLOW RATE(C))
The instant flowrate calibrated for meter error and corrected for temperature and pressure is indi-
cated.
(5) Temperature (TEMPERATURE)
The temperature value currently fed to the instrument is indicated. If a problem arises in the course
of temperature conversion, such as out-of-scale, a default fallback value is indicated. With a model
dedicated to pressure only, a default fixed temperature value is indicated.
(6) Pressure (PRESSURE)
The pressure value currently fed to the instrument is indicated. If a problem arises in the course of
pressure conversion, such as out-of-scale, a default fallback value is indicated
(7) Meter error correction factor (METER ERROR)
Meter error correction factor corresponding to the flowrate currently fed to the instrument is indi-
cated. Based on this reading, the total before correction is calibrated for meter error.
[Indicated reading] = 1 + −−−
(8) 3αcorrection factor (3αCOMPEN.)
Based on the temperature information currently fed to the instrument, the meter error correction factor
which is dependent on the volumetric expansion of meter body (3α) is indicated.
(9) Temperature/pressure correction factor (T/P COMPEN.)
The factor determined by the temperature and pressure currently fed to the instrument is indicated.
Based on this reading, correction of the corrected total is carried out.
[Indicated reading] =
(10) Quadratic correction factor (QUADRATIC COMPEN.)
Correction factor X of a quadratic function of temperature and pressure is indicated.

6.1.3 Error Messages
When an erratic condition arises, an error message automatically appears on the display. (The informa-
tion represented by error messages are listed on page 14.)
If two or more concurrent errors are involved, individual messages will be scrolled at intervals of approxi-
mately 3 seconds. When an error condition disappears, an error message automatically goes out and the
normal display is resumed.
NOTE: An error logging function can store a maximum of 20 events each of which consists of year,
month, day, hour and minutes of error occurrence and recovery. (Complete details are
covered in the Key Operation Manual.)
6.1.4 Front Panel Keypad
The eight front panel key switches consist of two kinds of keys - functions keys and shift keys.
・Function keys: Four round keys
Mainly used for function selection, such as activating the input conditions selected and recon-
figuration.
・Shift keys: Four triangular keys
Used for moving the cursor, moving between menu items, or changing numerical values.

7.1 Implementation of Meter Error Correction (Total flow before correction)
Q1 = a×Ip×(1 + E/100) ×εt
where Q1: Total flow corrected for meter error［l］
a: Meter factor［l/P］
Ip: Number of input pulses
E: Meter error correction value［%］
The line graph in Fig. 7.1 below shows how meter error curve linearization is achieved. E is approximate-
ly determined by the relationships between input pulse frequency and instrumental error correction value
set at multipoint error points which are programmable along the flowmeter,s instrumental error curve with
front-panel keys, and the frequency pulse information (flowrate) currently arriving from the flowmeter.
7.2 Implementation of Temperature/Pressure Correction (Corrected total flow)
Q2= Q1×(P/P0)×(T0/T)×Χ
where Q2: Total flow corrected for temperature and pressure［l (normal)］
Χ: (Pa＋Pbp ＋Pcp2) (Ta＋Tbt ＋Tct2)
P: p ＋0.101325［MPa・abs］
P0: p0＋0.101325［MPa・abs］
T: t ＋273.15［K］
T0: t0＋273.15［K］
p: Line pressure［MPa］
p0: Correction reference pressure［MPa］
t: Line temperature［℃］
t0: Correction reference temperature［℃ ］
Χis a correction factor as a quadratic factor of temperature and pressure. Constants Pa thru Pcand Ta
thru Tccan be set to any values with keys. Setting Paand Tcto 1 while Pb, Pc, Tb, Tcto 0 results in 1 at
all times, permitting calculations according to the Boyle-Charles law. By selecting appropriate values for
these constants, you can achieve approximate error correction regarding the deviation of gas compress-
ibility factor, etc.
7.3 Instant Flowrate (Uncorrected)

8. PREPARATIONAL CHECKS AND OPERATION
8.1 Preparation Before Operation
(1) Ensure that the instrument and related equipment are correctly installed and wired with no place left
unfinished.
WARNING: Make sure to see that the power terminals are connected to a power
source of the rated voltage. Applying a power source of incorrect voltage
could ruin your instrument.
(2) Supply power to this instrument and make certain to see that the front panel display is illuminated.
The display will remain unilluminated for one second after power on, which however is by no means
any indication of fault.
8.2 Preparational Checks
CAUTION: Allow a warmup period for 60 minutes or so after you turn on the power.
Verify if the instrument operates with no fluid flow.
How to Check
(1) Couple sources of simulated temperature and pressure signals.
(2) Using the shift keys, select menu items and verify the information displayed.
NOTE: See the KEY OPERATION MANUAL.
(3) Inject a simulated input pulse train or density signal representing the type of the companion pulse
generator.
(4) Select display menu items of the total mass flow and total calorific flow, and make sure that incoming
pulses are being accumulated. Also, verify that pulse output and analog output are properly
generated.
(5) Remove the simulated pulse input and compare the obtained readings on the display with cor-
responding theoretical values. Remember that this instrument is not equipped with a counter to
accumulate incoming pulses. Hence, an external counter is required.
8.3 Operation
CAUTION: Allow a warmup period for 60 minutes or so after you turn on the power.
(1) Select your power reset or non-reset (accumulated total) option.
NOTE: See the KEY OPERATION MANUAL.
(2) Turn on power. While the initial check screen remains displayed, indicating that the process of verify-
ing parameters and variables is in progress after you turned on the power, your instrument will not
accept any pulse input.
(3) Place your instrument in service operation by allowing the fluid to be metered.
