4.4 ERROR HANDLINGThe meter can detect errors in either the test or the measurement modes. When in the measurementmode, a blinking vertical bar will appear in the top left corner of the display indicating an error hasbeen detected. If the error reporting function is enabled, error messages will be displayed asseparate menu pages. The first line of the error menu page indicates the total number of errors andthe second line displays the error message. Measurement mode error messages are listed below.Error Message(display second line)NO SIGNALType DescriptionNo signal from the vortexsensorCorrective ActionRequiredNo flow. Also check for any other errors duringpower-on diagnostics. If there is a sensorproblem, contact ONICON.LOW FREQ.

4.5 TROUBLESHOOTING HINTSREPORTEDPROBLEMFlow is indicated whenno actual flow is in thepipe.POSSIBLESOLUTIONS• Mains interference due to improper earth ground connection. The protectiveearth PE terminal should be properly grounded (see page 20).• Excessive mechanical vibration in the pipe. If so, support the pipeline near themeter perpendicular to both the axis of the pipe and the axis of the bluff body.• If this problem persists at this point, contact ONICON. This problem may alsobe solved by reducing the factory set gain.Any identifiable installation issues should be corrected and any pipevibration shoud be minimized before the gain setting is changed.“CHECK INST.” erroris displayed when noflow is in the pipe.The display should normally indicate 0.0 flow rate, LOW FLOW or LOW SIGNALwhen there is no flow in the pipe. The additional CHECK INSTALL error (flowrate = 0.0 or some steady or fluctuating value) is an indication of:• Improper/inadequate earthing• Excessive pipe vibrationFlow rate indicated is0.0 even with flow inthe pipe.The flow indicatedresponds to changesin the flow but theindicated value doesnot correspond to theactual flow rate. Also“CHECK INST.” Errormay appear intermittently.• The vortex sensor cable is disconnected or is not properly connected.• Flow sensor is faulty. Contact ONICON for assistance.• The meter is not properly centered on the pipeline. The axis of the meter boreshould be aligned with that of the pipe.• Gaskets at the meter are protruding into the pipe bore. The gaskets must notproject into the effective cross-section of the pipe.• Irregularities on the surface of the pipe bore. The pipe bore should be free fromirregularities at the welded joints, dirt, deposits and excessive surface roughness.• The Vortex signal is distorted due to a bi-phase medium. Bi-phase media arenot permitted. Use a moisture separator for wet steam applications to removethe moisture droplets from the steam. Use suitable filters in gas applications toremove solid particles from the flowing gas. • Incorrect angular position of themeter. Refer to Section 3.1 for the allowable mounting positions.• Insufficient upstream/downstream pipe lengths. Check that the upstream/downstream pipe lengths are of the correct minimum length as given inSection 3.1.• Error in meter factor K-Factor programming. Contact ONICON for assistance.• Check that the flow direction and the direction arrow on the meter body agree.1500 North Belcher Road, Clearwater, FL 33765 • Tel (727) 447-6140 • Fax (727) 442-5699 • sales@onicon.comF-2500 Flow Meter Manual 11/11 - 0688-3 Page 25
