Vantage Series 2200
General Description
The following description applies to both the Vantage 2210 and 2220.
The Vantage series 2200 is an ultrasonic level/flow meter. Its' design allows it to be easily programmed
as a level meter or an open channel flow meter. It can operate two ultrasonic sensors and can be
programmed for two level applications, two flow applications or one level and one flow application.
The Vantage series 2200 is supplied with a backlit LCD display with 4 lines and 20 characters per line.
In the normal mode the display has two pages with up to 4 lines that can be assigned to each page. The
pages are switched by pressing the UP/NEXT key. The information for each line can be assigned and
arranged at the user’s discretion. The backlight of the display can be programmed on or off or timed
off.
The programming of the unit is accomplished with the 16 button keypad by means of a drill down type
menu structure. The meter stores the steps taken when it was previously programmed. So when a
programming parameter needs to be changed, the user can quickly get to the screen to make the change.
The display screens can be viewed in three languages: English, Spanish and German.
The Vantage series 2200 can be programmed to operate on four different types of sensors. The standard
sensors used with the meter are the FB7, FB3 and FB5. The FB7 sensor is normally used for flow or
level measurements up to 15 feet. The FB4 sensor is used for flow or level measurements up to 25 feet.
The FB3 sensor is used for level measurements of up to 50 feet. The fourth sensor that can be used with
the meter is the FB1 sensor that was used with the previous Models 2100 and 2500.
When used as an open channel flow meter, the Vantage series 2200 has most of the commonly used
flumes and weirs stored in memory. For special open channel primary devices, the user can input a
Head vs Flow table, or an equation with a K and power factor.
The Vantage series 2200 is also capable of being programmed for pump alternation control when used
as a level meter. Up to three setpoints and four relays can be used for this function.
The meter also contains a data logger. It will display daily summaries for totals
over the last eight days. The logged data can also be displayed in graphic form on the
display. With the Vantage DDS software the logged data can be downloaded and converted to a csv
(comma separated variable) file to be imported into a spread sheet program such as Excel™.
The 2200 has self diagnosis and any faults, or tripped setpoints, will be displayed if the alarms are
assigned to one of the display lines. The following are the alarms that could be displayed:
LP#1 – Indicates that the 4-20 mA output loop is open.
Int – Will flash on when contact integrator activates.
Ovr – Indicates that the flow, or level, is above the maximum flow or level.
SP# – Indicates that a setpoint has been tripped.
Sig – Indicates that the meter is not receiving a signal from the sensor.
