FloBoss S600+ P148 Dual Pulse Mezzanine 7181483
Product Code: 7181483
The P148 Dual Pulse Mezzanine module is a specialized daughterboard designed to add high-performance pulse input capability to the FloBoss S600+ Flow Computer. Installed directly on a P144 I/O or P154 Prover module, this mezzanine board provides precise frequency and pulse counting functionality essential for flow metering applications involving turbine meters, positive displacement meters, and other pulse-generating devices.
This module is a critical component for custody transfer and fiscal measurement, where accurate pulse detection is fundamental to calculating flow rates and totalized volumes. The P148 supports both dual pulse (for direction detection) and single pulse train inputs, providing versatility for various meter types. Its high-resolution frequency measurement ensures that even small flow rates are accurately captured.
High-Precision Pulse Measurement
Input Configuration: Supports 2 dual pulse or 4 single pulse inputs, configurable based on application requirements.
Frequency Range: Capable of measuring frequencies from 1 Hz up to 10 kHz, covering the output range of most industrial flow meters.
Accuracy: Offers 20 ppm accuracy with a resolution of 5 nanoseconds, ensuring high precision in flow calculations.
Signal Compatibility: Accepts signal levels from ±3.5 V to ±24 V with a minimum current of 5 mA, making it compatible with a wide variety of meter outputs.
The P148 module features opto-isolated inputs to provide galvanic isolation between the field instruments and the flow computer's internal circuitry. This isolation is vital for protecting against electrical noise and ground loops, which can corrupt pulse signals and lead to measurement errors. The module's robust design ensures reliable performance in demanding industrial environments.
Because the P148 mounts as a daughterboard, it does not consume an additional expansion slot in the S600+ chassis. This efficient design allows users to maximize the functionality of their I/O modules without sacrificing the ability to add other expansion modules, such as the HART or additional I/O boards, making it a cost-effective solution for enhancing pulse input capacity.
