What causes Flow Sensor Failure in Magnetrol Thermatel TA2?
If your Magnetrol Measuring Instruments indicate a Flow Sensor Failure, it could be due to a short or an open circuit in the RTDs measuring the heated sensor, or in the interconnecting wiring (if remote electronics). Check the wiring to the probe.
What to do if there is install factor error in Magnetrol Thermatel TA2?
This message may occur if the units of measurement were changed after install factors were entered. Check and recalculate the install factors.
What to do if pulse multiplier error in Magnetrol Thermatel TA2?
If the maximum pulse output exceeds the maximum frequency selected, increase the Pulse Multiplier.
What to do if AO2 loop current is fixed in Magnetrol Measuring Instruments?
If the second 4–20 mA loop (AO2) is not responding, check informational messages.
What to do if there is no output signal and no display on Magnetrol Measuring Instruments?
If your Magnetrol Measuring Instruments display shows no output signal and there is no display, the issue might be a lack of input power. Verify that LED D6 on the input wiring board is lit. If it isn't, inspect the wiring connections. Also, check the F1 and F2 tests to ensure the fuses protecting the input wiring are functional.
Why is the flow rate too high or too low on Magnetrol Measuring Instruments?
If the flow rate measured by your Magnetrol Measuring Instruments is too high or too low, first check the values entered for Flow Area under Basic Configuration. Then, check if Install Factors are entered under Advanced Configuration, and verify the STP conditions under Advanced Configuration. Another possible cause is buildup on the sensor. If this is the case, clean the sensor.
What to do if the Zero Flow Signal is too high in Magnetrol Measuring Instruments?
If the Zero Flow Signal is too high in your Magnetrol Measuring Instruments, it means the Zero Flow Signal (power) is greater than the second data point in the Calibration Table. Check the value entered under Factory Config/Cal Parameters/Zero Flow Signal.
What does it mean if RTDs are reversed in Magnetrol Thermatel TA2 Measuring Instruments?
If the RTDs are reversed in your Magnetrol Measuring Instruments, it means the wiring connecting the RTDs is reversed. Check the probe wiring or the interconnecting cable if you're using remote electronics.
What causes Temperature Sensor Failure in Magnetrol Measuring Instruments?
If your Magnetrol Measuring Instruments display a Temperature Sensor Failure, it could be due to a short or an open circuit in the RTD measuring the process temperature, or in the interconnecting wiring (if remote electronics). Check the wiring to the probe.
What to do if Non-Volatile Memory corruption occurs in Magnetrol Thermatel TA2?
If your Magnetrol Measuring Instruments are experiencing Non-Volatile Memory corruption, re-verify that all calibration and configuration factors in the device match the calibration certificate.
