SECTION 1.0: INTRODUCTION

We, at ONICON Incorporated, would like to thank you for purchasing our quality American made

F-5100 Series Thermal Mass Flow Meter. As our valued customer, our commitment to you is to

provide fast reliable service, while continuing to offer you quality products to meet your growing

ow measurement needs.

1.1 PURPOSE OF THIS GUIDE

We have written this guide to provide the persons responsible for the installation, operation and

maintenance of your ow meter with the product specic information they will need. This is

NOT an electrical or plumbing trade manual.

WARNING

Please do not permit persons to install, operate or maintain this equipment unless they have a

complete knowledge of their trade skills and are competent to work on combustible gas and/or high

pressure compressed air systems, according to their individual trades. Death or permanent injury

may result from accidents with these systems.

This guide is the basic reference tool for all ONICON F-5100 Inline Thermal Mass Flow Meters.

If you have not purchased all of the options, there will be references in this manual which are not

applicable to your meter(s).

1.2 TYPICAL INLINE THERMAL MASS FLOW METER

Each ONICON thermal mass meter has a single pair of encapsulated platinum sensors that are

in direct contact with the gas. The sensors consist of highly stable reference-grade platinum

windings. One sensor is self-heated and serves as the ow sensor. The other acts as a reference

sensor, and measures the gas temperature. Our proprietary sensor circuitry maintains a constant

temperature differential between the ow sensor and the reference sensor.

As gas ows by the heated sensor (ow sensor), the molecules of owing gas carry heat away

and the sensor cools. The sensor circuitry continuously compensates for this cooling effect and

maintains a constant temperature differential between the two sensors. The energy required to

maintain this temperature differential is directly proportional to the mass ow. There is no need

for additional temperature or pressure compensation.

1.4 ADDITIONAL HARDWARE THAT MAY BE REQUIRED

1.4.1 Additional Remote Mount Cable

ONICON remote mount meters are provided with 25ft of cable. Additional cable lengths of

up to 1000ft may be added without affecting the calibration of the meter.

1.4.2 Gaskets for Flanged Meters

For F-5100 Inline Thermal Mass Flow Meters provided with ANSI class 150 or class 300

anges require gaskets for proper installation. ONICON does not supply gaskets.

Gaskets used must comply with all relevant AGA and ANSI standards.

1.5 WORKING ENVIRONMENT

F-5000 series meters are designed for installation and use in typical industrial environments that

are free of corrosive liquids and fumes, direct liquid exposure, heavy condensation, temperature

extremes and vibrations. Do not install the meter in direct sunlight.

The operating ambient air temperature range is -5° to 150° F.

The electrical power should be relatively clean, free of high frequency noise, large voltage

transients, and protected from power surges and brown outs.

SECTION 3.0: INSTALLATION

The drawings above illustrate the relationship between the integral display, the ow direction

and the orientation of the meter when installed in the pipe. Contact ONICON for assistance if

this relationship does not allow for viewing the display.

WARNING

This ow meter may be installed in pipes which are under high pressure or pipes lled with

combustible gases. Accidents with these systems can cause serious injury or death. Only persons

experienced with high pressure and/or combustible gas distribution systems and uid metering

should attempt to install, adjust, or remove the ow meter. Please read all instructions carefully

before attempting to install or service a ow meter.

ONICON will be happy to assist with technical recommendations and to provide guidance by phone

or e-mail. On-site eld engineering, installation and service are also available at an additional cost.

3.1 INSTALLATION SITE SELECTION

Install the ow meter where it will be accessible for personnel to perform necessary periodic

maintenance. The clearance required for installation is a minimum of 9” from the pipe wall

to the nearest obstruction above the electronics enclosure. Refer to Section 1.5 WORKING

ENVIRONMENT for additional considerations.

ONICON inline style ow meters must also be correctly oriented in the pipe with respect

to the direction of ow. On meters with an integrally mounted display, this will affect the

orientation of the display.

How to Determine the Available Straight Pipe Run:

Locate the longest straight unobstructed section of pipe available. To be unobstructed, the

section of pipe must be free of bends, tees, size transitions, valves or insertion probes of

any kind.

In addition to the information provided above

and on the previous page, the diagrams

shown below and the table shown on the next

page should be used as a guide to identifying

the best installation location for the meter.

Required upstream/downstream distances in inches

as measured from the process

connections.

GENERAL PRACTICES:

1. For best results, install the ow meter in a straight run of pipe, free of bends, tees,

valves, transitions and obstructions.

2. Straight run requirements vary based on the nature of the upstream obstruction.

See the table on page 12 for guidelines in determining upstream straight run

requirements. Depending upon specic location details, more or less straight run

may be required to produce a satisfactory ow prole.

3. If there is insufcient straight run, allow 80% of the run upstream and 20% of

the run downstream. If the total length of straight run is less than 75% of the

recommended distance, performance may seriously degrade.
