Product Features and Application Scenarios
- High-precision measurement: Meets the stable signal output requirements of industrial process control.
- Easy installation: Standard interface design, compatible with common pipes and flanges.
- Adjustable parameters: Supports on-site keypad or host computer configuration.
- Reliable protection: Suitable for complex working conditions such as dust and humidity.
Installation and Wiring Points
Installation Steps
- Confirm that the pipeline is pressure-free and free of medium residue to ensure safe operation.
- Install the instrument according to the flow direction mark, ensuring the arrow direction is consistent with the medium flow direction.
- Evenly tighten the connecting bolts to avoid leakage caused by one-sided stress.
- Check whether the seals are intact and replace them if necessary.
Wiring Precautions
- Operate with power off, and confirm that the power supply voltage matches the instrument nameplate.
- Route signal cables and power cables separately to reduce electromagnetic interference.
- Ground the shield at one end only to avoid ground loops.
- After wiring is completed, check insulation and fastening status.
Parameter Setting and Commissioning
Enter the menu via panel keys or configuration software, and set parameters such as range, unit, and output mode in sequence. During commissioning, it is recommended to first input a standard signal and check whether the displayed value and output current are consistent.
| Parameter Item | Description | Typical Setting |
|---|---|---|
| Upper Range Limit | Corresponds to the maximum measured value | Set according to process requirements |
| Lower Range Limit | Corresponds to the minimum measured value | Set according to process requirements |
| Output Mode | 4-20mA/digital communication | 4-20mA |
| Damping Time | Suppresses signal fluctuation | 1-3 seconds |
Routine Maintenance and Troubleshooting
Maintenance Recommendations
- Regularly check whether wiring terminals are loose or oxidized.
- Clean the sensor surface to prevent scaling from affecting accuracy.
- Record operating data for trend analysis and early warning.
Common Faults
- No display: Check power supply and fuse.
- Large output deviation: Recalibrate the range or check grounding.
- Signal fluctuation: Increase damping time or investigate interference sources.
Procurement and Selection Tips
When purchasing FMI21, please confirm whether the measurement medium, pressure rating, connection specifications, and output signal match the on-site requirements. It is recommended to keep the complete manual PDF for on-site reference and training.
