4.1 Processing of the measured signals

• The unit displays the current process values.
- It generates 2 output signals according to the parameter setting.

OUT1: 3 selection options .... parameter setting switching signal for volumetric flow limit values .... (→ 9.2.1)

or pulse sequence for totalising meter .... (→ 9.3.1)

or switching signal for preset counter .... (→ 9.3.2)

OUT2: 2 selection options

switching signal for volumetric flow limit value ·s·s(9.2.2)

or analogue signal for volumetric flow 9.2.3

4.2 Volumetric flow monitoring

The flow rate is monitored by a calorimetric measuring system, the measured signals by the electronics.

  • 2 switching signals for volumetric flow limit values can be provided (output 1 and output 2). For the switching functions 4.5.
  • An analogue signal proportional to the volumetric flow (4...20 mA) can be provided on output 2. For the analogue functions → 4.6.

4.3 Consumed quantity monitoring (totalizer function)

The unit has an internal quantity meter which continuously totals the volumetric flow. The sum corresponds to the current consumed quantity since the last reset.

• The current meter count can be indicated.
- In addition the value before the last reset is stored. This value can also be indicated.

The meter saves the totalled consumed quantity every 10 minutes. After a power failure this value is available as the current meter count. If a time-controlled reset is set, the elapsed time of the set reset interval is also stored. So the possible data loss can be maximum 10 minutes.

The meter can be reset as follows:

• Manual reset ( 9.3.3).
• Time-controlled automatic reset ( 9.3.3).

4.3.1 Consumed quantity monitoring with pulse output

Output 1 provides a counting pulse if the value set in [lmPS] is reached ( 9.3.1).

4.3.2 Consumed quantity monitoring with preset meter

2 types of monitoring are possible:

• Time-dependent quantity monitoring
- Settings: [ImPS] = quantity x, [ImPR] = [no], [rTo] = time t.
- If the quantity x is reached during the time t, output 1 switches and remains switched until the meter is reset.
- If the quantity x has not been reached after the time t, the meter is automatically reset and counting starts again; output 1 does not switch.

• Quantity monitoring not time-dependent

- Settings: [ImPS] = quantity x, [ImPR] = [no], [rTo] = [OFF].

- If the quantity x is reached, output 1 switches and remains switched until the meter is reset.

4.4 Monitoring of temperatures

- The unit detects the current system temperature and shows it on the display (→ chapter 10.2 Changing the display unit in the Run mode).

4.5 Volumetric flow monitoring / switching function

OUTx changes its switching state if it is above or below the set switching limits (SPx, rPx). The following switching functions can be selected:

• Hysteresis function / normally open (fig. 1): [OUx] = [Hno].

• Hysteresis function / normally closed (fig. 1): [OUx] = [Hnc].

First the set point (SPx) is set, then the reset point (rPx) at the requested distance.

• Window function / normally open (fig. 2): [OUx] = [Fno].
• Window function / normally closed (fig. 2): [OUx] = [Fnc].

The width of the window can be set by means of the distance between SPx and rPx. SPx = maximum value, rPx = minimum value.

line | t | Q | | ---- | ----- | | 0 | 0 | | 1 | SP | | 2 | SP | | 3 | rP | | 4 | 0 |

When set to the window function the set and reset points have a fixed hysteresis of 0.25 % of the final value of the measuring range. This keeps the switching state of the output stable if the volumetric flow varies slightly.

4.6 Volumetric flow monitoring / analogue function

  • The analogue start point [ASP] determines at which measured value the output signal is 4 mA.
  • The analogue end point [AEP] determines at which measured value the output signal is 20 mA.

Minimum distance between [ASP] and [AEP] = 25 % of the final value of the measuring range.

MEW = final value of the measuring range
In the set measuring range the output signal is between 4 and 20 mA.
It is also indicated:
• Volumetric flow above the measuring range: output signal > 20 mA.
- Flow rate below the measuring range: output signal between 3.6 and 4 mA.

5 Installation

IFM SD8001 - Installation - 1

The rules and regulations for the installation and operation of compressed air equipment must be observed.

5.1 Installation location

• Behind the cold dryer / near the load.
- If compressed air is fed into the main pipe through parallel pipes, the unit should be mounted in the main pipe.
• Installation after the maintenance unit is also possible. If oil is used for the loads, the unit must be mounted before the oiler.

5.2 Installation conditions

To achieve the specified measurement accuracy, the following mounting conditions must be adhered to: defined inflow / outflow pipe lengths, defined flow cross-sectional area, fixed installation depth and correct positioning of the measuring elements.

The unit is delivered mounted on a pipe section meeting these conditions.

Setting operation:

▶ Ensure that [OU1] is set to [ImP].
▶ Select [lmPS], press [Set] and keep it pressed.

The current numerical value flashes for 5 s, then one of the 4 digits becomes active (digit flashes, can be changed).
▶ Set the requested value as indicated in the following table.

First select the requested setting range. Then set the figure from the left digit to the right digit.

▶ Press [Mode/Enter] briefly when all 4 digits are set.

As soon as the first digit flashes there are 3 options:

▶ Press [Set] onceThe flashing digit is increased. 9 is followed by 0 - 1 - 2, etc.

Note: If [Set] is pressed continuously, the display moves through all setting ranges; after the end value it jumps back to the start value. Release [Set] briefly and start the setting again.

10 Operation

Correct operation and compliance with the measurement accuracy can only be ensured if the environmental conditions specified in the Technical data are adhered to. Ensure that the maximum pressure range, measuring range and permitted operating temperature are not exceeded.

After power on and expiry of the power-on delay time (approx. 0.5 s) the unit is in the Run mode (= normal operating mode). It carries out its measurement and evaluation functions and generates output signals according to the set parameters.

• Operation indication → chapter 7 Controls and indicating elements.
- During the power-on delay time the outputs are switched as programmed: ON for NO function (Hno / Fno) and OFF for NC function (Hnc / Fnc).
- If output 2 is configured as analogue output, the output signal is at the maximum value during the power-on delay time.

10.1 Read the set parameters

▶ Press [Mode/Enter] until the requested parameter is displayed.
▶ Press [Set] briefly.

The unit displays the corresponding parameter value for about 15 s. After another 15 s the parameter is displayed again, then the unit returns to the Run mode.

10.2 Changing the display unit in the Run mode

▶ Press [Set] briefly in the Run mode. Press the pushbutton to move to the next display unit.

The unit displays the current measured value for approx. 15 s, the corresponding LED lights.

10.3 Error indication

[SC1] Short circuit in OUT1.*
[SC2] Short circuit in OUT2.*
[SC] Short circuit in both outputs.*
[OL] Measured value > 120% of the final value of the measuring range.
[UL] Measured value < lowest value of the measuring range.
[Err] Fault in the measuring probe.

*The output concerned is switched off as long as the short circuit continues.
These faults are indicated even if the display is deactivated.

10.4 General operating conditions

The unit is maintenance-free for media which will not adhere to the measuring probes.

• From time to time check the measuring probes visually for build-up.
- If necessary, clean them at regular intervals. To do so, use a suitable cleaning liquid (e.g. alcoholic solution).
- Avoid mechanical damage to the measuring probes.
