Using Rapidlogger with EDD 860 Explosion Proof Flowmeter Totalizer

This tech note describes the process to connect an EDD 860 Explosion Proof Totalizer with a Rapidlogger system.

Figure 1: EDD 860 Explosion Proof Flowmeter Totalizer

The counter outputs on the EDD 860 Explosion Proof Totalizer needs pull up with a 10k resistor to enable them to generate outputs. are of the passive type.

Rapidlogger Quadrature input then the connection should be wired as shown in table 2.

Modbus Communication   Rapidlogger Terminal
C4 TR- TGRY15 R2 SIGNAL INPUT J5-3 Brown
C3 TR+ TGRY10 R1 DC Ground
C1 Ground TGRY6 P1 Ground
    TGRY5 P2 DC out
Pull Up Resistor Wiring
    R2 10K ohm resistor to P2

The setting in the flowmeter totalizer can be adjusted from the front panel of the totalizer or via Modbus along with the Fluidwell Remote Configuration Utility.

Pulse Output value is 0.001 on the EDD flowmeter totalizer

Pulse Output

Since this value is in bbl/pulse we multiply it by 60 (seconds) to obtain bbl/minute. So the value you enter in the Multiplier field of the Rapidlogger utility is 0.06000.
