2.0 Safety POD Read this manual in its entirety before operating the POWER -400 Power Supply/Totalizer. The POD POWER -400 is designed to operate with most Teledyne Hastings Instruments (THI) flow controllers and meters. Read all wiring and power hookup instructions and understand the requirements prior to POD using another manufacturer’s products with the POWER -400. Insure that any product being POD interfaced with the POWER -400 is wired according to prevailing local safety and oper

3.0 Features POD The POWER -400 serves as a convenient control center that can be rack-mounted using standard half- POD rack hardware or can be used as a bench top unit. The POWER -400 is equipped with a 4 X 20 character, vacuum fluorescent display (VFD). The display emulates a liquid crystal display in its command structure but the VFD gives the unit a greater viewing angle and better visibility than available with most conventional LED or LCD displays. The display can be set to four d

POWER SELECTION Power input is switchable between 100 VAC, 115 VAC and 230VAC (50 or 60 Hz) via the rear panel. For the safety of the operator as well as the device, the correct power level should be selected prior to connecting to the power mains. See the table “POWERPOD-400 Specifications” in section 3.0 for the proper fusing when changing power settings. RATIO CONTROL Ratio control is possible between channels using a familiar master/slave configuration. Channel one (1) must be

Example (See Graph): A linear flow transducer with a DC output of 0 to 5 volts is calibrated for a maximum flow of 25 SLH. POD The transducer is connected to one channel of a POWER -400 which is CAL’d to read 25.000 at 5 volts input and has been programmed to display rate in SLH. The transducer is sending a constant 1.000- volt signal to the POWERPOD-400. What is the total flow after 40 minutes? During one sampling interval, the TOTALIZER reads the one-volt signal and calculates the fract
