<strong>ELECTRA</strong>-<strong>flo</strong>SECTION 1 – GENERAL INFORMATION1 – GENERAL INFORMATION1.1 – DESCRIPTIONThe <strong>ELECTRA</strong>-<strong>flo</strong> Thermal <strong>Air</strong> Flow Transmitter is used in conjunction with <strong>ELECTRA</strong>-<strong>flo</strong> Probe(s). One Transmittercan receive up to 32 individual <strong>flo</strong>w sensors measuring a single ducted air<strong>flo</strong>w or fan.The Transmitter's microprocessor averages <strong>flo</strong>w and temperature signals from all sensors and outputs an analogsignal and local display of these averages. The Transmitter serves as the interface for all configuration and diagnosticfunctions.The <strong>ELECTRA</strong>-<strong>flo</strong> utilizes thermal dispersiontechnology to measure air<strong>flo</strong>w. As air moves acrossthe surface of an elevated temperature sensor, heatis transferred from the sensor to the air<strong>flo</strong>w in amathematically defined relationship between heattransfer rate and air<strong>flo</strong>w velocity.Each <strong>ELECTRA</strong>-<strong>flo</strong> sensing node utilizes a pair ofprecision matched thermistors. One functions as areference sensor measuring the ambient airtemperature at the sensing node location, and theother thermistor is heated to a preset temperaturedifferential (T) above the ambient air temperature.<strong>Air</strong><strong>flo</strong>w velocity is determined using the measuredambient air temperature, the known heat transfercharacteristics of the heated thermistor, and thepower consumed to maintain the T between the twothermistors.1.2 – THEORY OF OPERATIONUsing a combination of Computational FluidDynamics (CFD) modeling and extensive full-scalewind tunnel verification, the aerodynamicallyoptimized cross section of the sensing node apertureprevents error inducing turbulence typical of sharpedged sensing tubes.The aperture’s injection molded shape has beenengineered to minimize the angular <strong>flo</strong>w effectsnaturally present in any duct. The flared aperturecaptures a representative sample of the ductedair<strong>flo</strong>w, while the contoured leading edges preventthe creation of vortices. The center cross section ofthe aperture functions in the same manner as aventuri. It stabilizes and flattens the velocity profileat the point of measurement ensuring the air<strong>flo</strong>wmaintains full contact with the sensing thermistors.The <strong>flo</strong>w conditioning characteristic of the aperturecompensates for turbulent air<strong>flo</strong>w with pitch and/oryaw angles up to ±30 degrees and produces anaccuracy of ±2% of reading for each <strong>ELECTRA</strong>-<strong>flo</strong>sensor.<strong>Air</strong> <strong>Monitor</strong> <strong>Corporation</strong>116-053-13.P65 (2/28/12)1<strong>ELECTRA</strong>-<strong>flo</strong> - IO&M Manual

<strong>ELECTRA</strong>-<strong>flo</strong>SECTION 4 – INSTALLATION4 – INSTALLATION4.1 – RECEIVING AND INSPECTION• Carefully remove the <strong>ELECTRA</strong>-<strong>flo</strong> Probe(s) or Station, and Transmitter from the shipping container and inspect forany damage. If any damage has occurred in transit, contact freight carrier.• Review the Factory Set-Up Information Sheet provided separately and verify the W.O. # and Serial # match thoseon the <strong>ELECTRA</strong>-<strong>flo</strong>. Verify that the configuration recorded on the Factory Set-Up Information Sheet is correct foryour application. If not, contact <strong>Air</strong> <strong>Monitor</strong>'s Customer Service Department at 1-800-AIRFLOW for further guidance.Note:The <strong>ELECTRA</strong>-<strong>flo</strong> has been configured to customer provided parameters (see "Factory SetupInformation Sheet" provided separately), and requires no field calibration/verification prior to installation.4.2 – LOCATION• The standard version of the <strong>ELECTRA</strong>-<strong>flo</strong> Transmitter is a NEMA 1 enclosure suitable for most clean indoor locations.If additional protection is required, mount the Transmitter in an enclosure with adequate NEMA rating.• The ambient temperature of the selected mounting location must be between -20ºF to 140ºF. Consideration shouldbe given to units exposed to direct sunlight.• The selected mounting location should be rigid and free of vibration.<strong>Air</strong> <strong>Monitor</strong> <strong>Corporation</strong>116-053-13.P65 (2/28/12)4<strong>ELECTRA</strong>-<strong>flo</strong> - IO&M Manual

<strong>ELECTRA</strong>-<strong>flo</strong>SECTION 4 – INSTALLATION4.5 – POWER/SIGNAL CONNECTIONSPower wiring is done at terminal strip P8, and signal wiring is done at terminal strip P7. Both P7 and P8 are locatedin the lower portion of the transmitter and are accessible by opening the front cover. See Figure 4.2 for location of P7and P8. Two conduit openings are provided in the bottom of the transmitter for the power and signal wiring.Figure 4.2WIRING. It is recommended that power wiring be 14 awg to 18 awg, and signal wiring should be 14 awg to 22 awg.14 awg is the maximum wire gauge that the terminals can accommodate. No more than two wires should beconnected to any one terminal. To aid in the wiring of both power and signal wires, P7 and P8 are removable bypulling the terminal strip straight up and off the circuit board. Once wiring has been completed, replace the terminalstrip by aligning with receptacle and pressing firmly.POWER 24 VAC/DC (Terminals L, N and G, P8). Power required by the <strong>ELECTRA</strong>-<strong>flo</strong> must be connected to the twoterminals labeled L(+) and N(–). Earth ground must be connected to the terminal labeled G. Power Supply mustbe 20-28VAC or 20-40VDC.<strong>Air</strong> <strong>Monitor</strong> <strong>Corporation</strong>116-053-13.P65 (2/28/12)6<strong>ELECTRA</strong>-<strong>flo</strong> - IO&M Manual

This is used toindicate the type of information in the object. For example, for an <strong>ELECTRA</strong>-<strong>flo</strong> system, the description willindicate as “AF0” for average <strong>flo</strong>w, or “AT0” for average temperature. If the object belongs to a sensor in thesystem, it will be indicated as “STn” or “SFn”, where n is the sensor address. The <strong>Air</strong> <strong>Monitor</strong> Device whichsupports BACnet will determine the amount of AI objects available. For an ElectraFLO system, the amountof AI objects is determined by the total number of sensors in the system x 2 with an additional 2 AI objectsfor system average <strong>flo</strong>w and system average temperature. So an ElectraFLO system with 8 sensors willhave a total of 18 AI objects. These are for average Flow and average DP. This object does not supportintrinsic reporting, so the event state is always “NORMAL”.Usage of the Status Field.– Each object supports status bits IN_ALARM, FAULT, and OUT_OF_SERVICE.– OVERRIDDEN is not supported as it makes no sense to override a value with no reasonable substitute.– The OOS property indicates the physical input to the object is not in service. In the case of an ElectraFLOsystem, this will be set by the transmitter if someone intentionally removes the sensor from the network.If the transmitter determines there is a problem with any sensor in question, the OOS bit is set alongwith the FAULT bit. If the OOS property is set, data from the physical device will not be used in anycalculation.– IN_ALARM is set for values which exceed the predetermined values set in the transmitter memory.Sensor analog objects will not typically have this flag set. This will be done at the transmitter levelindicating the average <strong>flo</strong>w or temperature are out of range.<strong>Air</strong> <strong>Monitor</strong> <strong>Corporation</strong>116-053-13.P65 (2/28/12)48<strong>ELECTRA</strong>-<strong>flo</strong> - IO&M Manual
