214i
BATCH CONTROLLER 
The 214i will
batch a preset quantity of liquid in Intrinsically Safe areas.
Easy to use and set
up
Just press the run button to batch
Displays batch quantity
Stores
an accumulated total
Preset to your requirements
Simple to install
Mounts on the pipe, wall or flowmeter
Accurately batches liquids
Save time
One or two stage valve control
Application
This instrument is used in hazardous areas to
automatically batch a precise quantity of liquid. It accepts pulsed frquency
signals such as those generated by turbine, positive displacement or pelton
wheel flowmeters.
Operation
To start a
batch you simply press the run button. It will control pumps and valves to
deliver your required volume of liquid. One display will show you the batch
count whilst the other will show the preset quantity.
Setup
The setup is easy using the keypad and it can be supplied
preset for your application. The displays can be set for any units e.g. litres
or gallons. During setup the pulses per litre, decimal point positions and
valve delays are entered.
Installation
The 214i requires a DC power supply and batteries provide
back up to store the settings. It is mounted directly on to your flowmeter,
wall or pipe. Two transistor outputs control valves or pumps and can be used
for one or two stage batch control. This allows slow start up and/or slow
shutdown of the batching process. The first output will energise at the start
of the batch and de-energise when the batch is complete. The second output can
be set to energise at a fixed time after the start, and to de-energise at a
fixed quantity before the end of the batch.
Intrinsically Safe
Installation
The 214i is certified for use in
Class 1 Zone 1 hazardous areas with approved sensors and solenoids such as the
Apollo IS coil and Namur sensor.
Construction
The instrument is housed in a polycarbonate enclosure
that is weatherproof. Cables are inserted through waterproof cable glands.
