Manual CONTREC 515 BC01

The 515 BC01 from Contrec is a powerful tool designed for accurate measurement and control of liquids and other materials in batch applications. Here's a breakdown of its key features:

Function:

Dual-stage batch controller for reliable measurement of preset quantities.
Handles fast batching processes.

Input Compatibility:

Accepts both volumetric frequency and analog inputs from a wide range of flow meters.
Compatible with millivolt signals, reed switches, pulse outputs, Namur proximity switches, and analog signals.

Control and Readout:

Provides clear local readout of process data for operator monitoring.
Integrates with communication systems for control in automated setups.
Allows quick access to commonly used presets directly from the front panel.

Accuracy and Compensation:

Ensures precise volume delivery with automatic overrun compensation.
Overrun compensation accounts for system delays like valve closure times.
Offers scaling, filtering, and non-linear correction for various flow meter inputs.
Supports square law and cutoff point adjustments for analog inputs.

Calculations:

Calculates total volume and flow rate based on:
- Frequency and pulse count (for frequency input) using a K-factor for conversion.
- Normalized analog input value (for analog input).

Overrun Compensation:

Automatically calculates the new valve closure point to eliminate under-delivery issues.
Averages overrun from the last three batches for compensation.
Overrun compensation value is valid for new presets within a 20% range.

In essence, the 515 BC01 is a versatile and user-friendly batch controller ideal for diverse industrial applications requiring precise volume control. It offers exceptional compatibility, accurate measurement, and automatic compensation features for reliable batch processing.

- Integrates with communication systems for control in automated setups.
- Allows quick access to commonly used presets directly from the front panel.
Accuracy and Compensation:
- Ensures precise mass delivery with automatic overrun compensation.
- Overrun compensation accounts for system delays like valve closure times.
- Offers scaling, filtering, and non-linear correction for various flow meter inputs.
- Supports square law and cutoff point adjustments for analog inputs.
Mass Calculations:
- Calculates total mass and mass flow rate based on:
- Frequency and pulse count (for frequency input) using a K-factor for conversion.
- Normalized analog input value (for analog input).
Overrun Compensation:
- Automatically calculates the new valve closure point to eliminate under-delivery issues.
- Averages overrun from the last three batches for compensation.
