Measure principle
• One Magnetic field whole waveform resulted from low and high frequency signal
applied to the fluid with the excitation coil.

• The Low Frequency component of the Electromotive force generated, is filtered

through an integration filter to obtain a smooth flow rate signal, this represent one
average flow rate signal of high zero stability

• In the other side, one differentiation circuit is working by passing low frequency
signal when the fluid noise appears when low conductivity fluid is passed through
the sensor
•The high frequency is used for obtain the flow variation passing through this filter

•Consequently this two signal filtered and free of any interference means flow
velocity, which added to the high zero stability signal to obtain the two component.

 For the frequency channels the JAB continues counting pulses
for one second then resets both counters at the end of each
second.
 If daisy chained will resend the command to the next unit and
wait up to 120 msec before it sends the data packet to the host
( PRISM II system ).

 Installation
 Observe electrostatic discharge (EDS) precautions.
 Before power is applied make sure that the +12 VDC and +24
VDC are connected to the correct connections
 Set all voltage switches to the proper position for each sensor.
 Install the P connectors to either of the following positions:
PACR or RS232.
 Ensure that the green +12V LED is ON on the SIB and the red
LED on the TERN microcontroller board is flashing at a rate of
about once a second.

 DCU
 This new multi-functional board can be used in either a Sensor or Rate DCU

box. The board only needs one jumper changed to distinguish it from Sensor to

Rate DCU. All of the sensor inputs and power are wire-wrapped during

assembly, so no changes are necessary. The DCU board has the following

capabilities:

 8 x 16 Bit Analog Inputs

 8 x 16 Bit Counters

 2 x Serial Channels

 1 x CAN Bus Interface

DCU Sensor Box 568273000

The DCU Sensor Box is a direct replacement for the Analog RDA currently used
in the field today. The power requirements for the sensor box are the same as for
the standard RDA Analog, +12 volts DC. The Sensor Box can accept six (6)
analog signals of 0-20 mA with a 500 load. The two (2) frequency inputs are
rated at 0-20 kHz. Each of the frequency inputs also have the emergency
shutdown capability.

Their are two (2) DC\DC converters in each DCU module for power isolation.
The converters are 12\12 & 12\24 converters we have standardized on within the
company. These converters also incorporate short circuit protection.
Specifications for the converters are listed later in this document.

DCU Rate Box 570257000
 The DCU Rate Box is a direct replacement for the Rate RDA currently used in the field

today. The power requirements for the Rate box is the same as for the standard RDA

Rate, +12 volts DC. The Rate Box can accept eight (8) frequency inputs which are rated

at 0-20 Khz. Each of the frequency inputs also have the emergency shutdown capability.

 DC/DC CONVERTERS
There are two DC/DC converters used in the DCU Sensor and Rate
box, a 12 to 12 and a 12 to 24 volt DC Vicor converter. The two
converters provide power isolation for the DCU board along with short
circuit protection for each of the outputs. Each of these power supplies
is rated at -40 to +85 C. A power conditioning board for noise
filtering has been added to provide EMI/RFI and transient protection.

 JUMPER SETTINGS

To change the DCU board from a Sensor board used in a DCU

Sensor box to a Rate board used in a DCU Rate box just remove
the jumper labeled RDA S and install a jumper on RDA R. To do
the opposite just reverse the operation.
All of the sensors are jumpered the same for both DCU Sensor
and Rate boxes. Analog channels 1-4 and 7-8 are set for +24
VDC for Viatran pressure transducers. Analog channels 5-6 are
set for +12 VDC for the Texas Nuclear or Dowell densitometer
panels. All frequency channels either in a DCU Sensor or Rate
Box they are set for +12 VDC.
