AquaMaster 3 FET200 Electromagnetic flowmeter 3.4.2 External Battery Power Supply Note. Before making connections, check the Data label to confirm power supply requirements. AquaMaster3 can be powered from Explorer-style battery packs fitted with the MIL plastic style plug. The Explorer battery capacity is of published life.
For these reasons, in some installations, generators with a capacity greater then the specified 5 W minimum should be used. Contact ABB for a technical note, giving guidance on the selection of suitably sized generators for AquaMaster3.
A successful connection is indicated by the message 'Pass' in the display window and normal flowmeter operation commences. Notes. If the display shows 'Err 1', check the sensor wiring. If the fault is rectified, the transmitter restarts automatically. If the display shows 'Err 2' or 'Err 3', contact ABB. OI/FET200–EN Rev. N...
