INTRODUCTION
The PROVU®PD6300 is a multipurpose, easy to use pulse rate/totalizer ideal for
flow rate, total, and control applications. It accepts pulse (40 mVp-p to 8 Vp-p),
square wave (0-5 V, 0-12 V, or 0-24 V), open collector, NPN, PNP, TTL or switch
contact signals. Three of the front panel buttons can be custom-programmed for
specific operation.
The basic model includes an isolated 24 VDC transmitter power supply that can be
used to power the input transmitter or other devices. An additional isolated 24 VDC
power supply is included with the 4-20 mA output option. A digital input is standard.
A fully loaded PD6300 pulse rate/totalizer meter has the following: four SPDT relays,
4-20 mA output, and two 24 VDC power supplies. The PD6300 capabilities may be
enhanced by adding the following external expansion modules: four SPST relays
(creating an eight-relay rate/totalizer), two digital I/O modules with four inputs and four
outputs each, and RS-232, RS-485, and USB communication adapters.
The eight relays can be used for alarm indication or process control applications. The
4-20 mA isolated output, Modbus RTU serial communications, and digital I/O options
make the PD6300 an excellent addition to any system.

INSTALLATION
There is no need to remove the meter from its case to complete
the installation, wiring, and setup of the meter for most
applications. Instructions are provided for setting up a
12/24 VDC powered meter to operate from 12 VDC and for
changing the transmitter power supply to output 5 or 10 VDC
instead of 24 VDC, see page 19.
Unpacking
Remove the meter from box. Inspect the packaging and
contents for damage. Report damages, if any, to the carrier.
If any part is missing or the meter malfunctions, please contact
your supplier or the factory for assistance.
Panel Mounting Instructions
•Prepare a standard 1/8 DIN panel cutout – 3.622" x 1.772" (92 mm x
45 mm). Refer to Figure 1 for more details.
•Clearance: allow at least 6.0" (152 mm) behind the panel for wiring.
•Panel thickness: 0.04" - 0.25" (1.0 mm - 6.4 mm).
Recommended minimum panel thickness to maintain Type 4X
rating: 0.06" (1.5 mm) steel panel, 0.16" (4.1 mm) plastic panel.
•Remove the two mounting brackets provided with the meter (back-off the two
screws so that there is ¼" (6.4 mm) or less through the bracket. Slide the
bracket toward the front of the case and remove).
•Insert meter into the panel cutout.
•Install mounting brackets and tighten the screws against the panel. To
achieve a proper seal, tighten the mounting bracket screws evenly until
meter is snug to the panel along its short side. DO NOT OVER TIGHTEN, as
the rear of the panel may be damaged.

Configuration for 12 or 24 VDC Power Option
Warning!
Do not exceed voltage rating of the selected
configuration.
Meters equipped with the 12/24 VDC power option are shipped from
the factory ready to operate from 24 VDC.
To configure the meter for 12 VDC power:
1. Remove all the connectors.
2. Unscrew the back cover.
3. Slide the back cover about 1 inch.
4. Configure the J9 jumper, located behind the power connector, for 12
V as shown below.

Transmitter Supply Voltage Selection (P+, P-)
All meters, including models equipped with the 12/24 VDC power
option, are shipped from the factory configured to provide 24 VDC
power for the transmitter or sensor.
If the transmitter requires 5 or 10 VDC excitation, the internal jumper
J4 must be configured accordingly.
To access the voltage selection jumper:
1. Remove all the connectors.
2. Unscrew the back cover.
3. Slide the back cover about 1 inch.
4. Configure the J4 jumper, located behind the input signal connector,
for the desired excitation voltage as shown.

Connections
All connections are made to removable screw terminal connectors
located at the rear of the meter.
Caution!
Use copper wire with 60°C or 60/75°C insulation
for all line voltage connections. Observe all safety
regulations. Electrical wiring should be performed
in accordance with all applicable national, state,
and local codes to prevent damage to the meter
and ensure personnel safety.
