1. Safety Information
General Warnings
Local Code Warning
! WARNING
These products must be installed to meet all applicable local installation regulations,
such as hazardous location requirements, electrical wiring codes, and mechanical
piping codes. Persons involved in the installation must be trained in these code
requirements to ensure that the installation takes maximum advantage of the safety
features designed into the flowmeter.
ATEX Warning
! WARNING
Apparatus marked as Category 1 equipment and used in hazardous areas requiring
this category must be installed in such a way that, even in the event of rare incidents,
the versions with an aluminum alloy enclosure can not be an ignition source due to
impact and friction.
Intrinsically Safe Warning

! WARNING
Since Invensys does not specify live maintenance, to prevent ignition of flammable
atmospheres, disconnect power before servicing unless the area is certified to be
nonhazardous.
Process Fluid Warning

! WARNING
If process containing parts are to be disassembled:
1. Make sure that process fluid is not under pressure or at high temperature.
2. Take proper precautions concerning leakage or spillage of any toxic or otherwise
dangerous fluid. Follow any Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) recommendations.
! WARNING
These flowmeters are built using materials that are corrosion resistant to a wide variety
of fluids. However, with aggressive fluids, a potential exists for corrosive failure.
Therefore, verify the material compatibility with the NACE guidelines and/or user
knowledge of the flowmeter material compatibility with the process fluid at operating
conditions.

MI 019-145 – June 2010 1. Safety Information
Abrasive Fluid Warning

! WARNING
Fluids containing abrasive particles and flowing at high rates can cause significant
wear to pipes. If these conditions exist, check the flowmeter periodically for wear.
Loss of Flow Signal Warning

! WARNING
If the flowrate signal appears to have a calibration shift or goes to zero, check the
flowmeter for corrosion or wear.
Parts Replacement Warning

! WARNING
If replacing parts, do not use parts made of other materials or that in any other way
change the product as described in the model code on the data plate.
Explosionproof/Flameproof and Enclosure Warning

! WARNING
To prevent possible explosion and to maintain explosionproof/flameproof and dust-
ignitionproof protection, plug unused openings with the provided metal pipe plug.
This plug must be engaged a minimum of five full threads. The threaded housing
covers must be installed. Turn covers to seat O-ring into the housing and then
continue to hand tighten until the cover contacts the housing metal-to-metal.
Type n Warning
! WARNING
On flowmeters certified for ATEX protection nL, CSA Class I, Division 2, or FM
nonincendive for Class I, Division 2, the threaded housing covers must be installed.

Sensor Replacement
! CAUTION
For ATEX certified flameproof units, take special care not to scar, mar, ding, or dent
the surface of the sensor stem during assembly. This is critical to the integrity of the
flameproof surface finish.
! WARNING
To prevent injury from escaping process fluids, to maintain agency certification of
this product, and to prove the integrity of the parts and workmanship in containing
process pressure, a hydrostatic pressure test must be performed after the sensor
replacement is complete. The flowmeter must hold the appropriate pressure from
Table 3 for one minute (10 minutes to meet PED requirements) without leaking.

MI 019-145 – June 2010 2. Installation
Piping Considerations and Mounting Position

Refer to the pocket-size bulletin, “Ensuring Premium Performance with Foxboro 83 Series
Intelligent Vortex Flowmeters” shipped with your flowmeter. This provides recommended
flowmeter mounting position relative to the type of fluid.
Mechanical Installation Procedures

83F Flanged Body
Mounting the Flowmeter Body

1. Gaskets are required and must be supplied by the user. Select a gasket material suitable
for the process.
2. Insert gaskets between the body of the flowmeter and adjacent flanges. See Figure 6.
Position the gaskets so that the ID of each gasket is centered on the ID of the
flowmeter and adjacent piping.
! CAUTION
Verify that the ID of the gaskets is larger than that of the flowmeter bore and pipe and
that the gaskets do not protrude into the meter entrance or exit. Protrusion into the
flowstream has an adverse effect on performance.
! CAUTION
Gaskets do not prevent flanges from being wetted by process fluids.
NOTE
When you install new flanges in the process piping and use the meter as a gauge to
set the flanges, protect the inside diameter of the flowmeter from weld splatter.
Install a solid sheet of gasketing at each end of the meter during welding. Remove
this sheet and install the flange gaskets after welding. Remove any splatter in either
the pipe or the meter as it could affect flowmeter accuracy.
GASKET

NOTE: install the flowtube so that the
arrow on the tube points in the same
direction as the direction of flow.

2. Installation MI 019-145 – June 2010
4. Tighten bolts in accordance with conventional flange bolt tightening practice (that is,
incremental and alternate tightening of bolts).
Mounting a Remote Electronics Housing

If you specified a remote electronics housing on your order, your flowmeter body and electronics
housing are connected by a signal cable. Mount the housing to a wall or to a DN50 or 2-inch pipe
using the mounting bracket assembly provided. If the flowmeter and electronics housing must be
separated for installation with conduit or for any other reason, it is recommended that you
disconnect the cable at the electronics housing end. If the cable must be shortened, shorten the
electronic housing end per the procedure in MI 019-189 (83 -A), MI 019-193 (83 -F),
MI 019-194 (83 -D), or MI 019-199 (83 -T), on your CD-ROM.
To install the flowmeter using conduit, use the following procedure:
1. Remove the electronic module compartment cover from the electronics housing.
2. Unscrew the two captive screws, one on each side of the electronic module.
3. Pull out electronic module far enough to disconnect the remote signal cable.
4. Disconnect the four remote signal wires from the four position terminal block on the
rear of the electronic module.
5. Unscrew the knurled nut and pull it back onto the cable jacket. Also pull the rubber
bushing onto the cable jacket. Leave these parts on the cable jacket as they will be used
when reconnecting the cable. See Table 5.
6. Run the remote cable to the electronic module housing via the conduit.
7. Taking care not to damage the copper braid, push the cable into the connector at

8. Push the rubber bushing into position, until it sits snug inside the connector.
9. Tighten the knurled nut on the connector to create a compression fit for a good seal.
10. Mount the conduit box or conduit to the 1/2 NPT connector directly or via a 3-piece
union/coupler, if necessary.
11. Inside the electronic housing, connect the four signal wires to the color coded 4-
position terminal block on the rear of the electronic module.
12. Ensure that the signal and loop power wires are tucked under the electronic module.
Taking care not to pinch the wires, place the module in the housing. Tighten the two
captive mounting screws.
13. Replace the threaded housing cover tightly. This will prevent moisture or other
contaminants from entering the compartment.

83W Wafer Body

For optimal performance, the wafer body flowmeter should be centered with respect to the
adjoining pipe. Normally, this requires the use of centering fixtures that are supplied with the
meter.
NOTE
Centering fixtures are not required for meters with ANSI Class 150 flanges.
There are two sets of centering fixtures, one for each side.
1. See Figure 7. Insert the first stud through the downstream flange at one of the lower
holes, through two hex-nut spacers, and then through the upstream flange. Place the
nuts on both ends of the stud, but do not tighten.
2. Using the remaining hex-nut spacers, repeat Step 1 at the lower hole adjacent to the
first.
3. Set the flowmeter between the flanges. For centering with the hex-nut spacers, rotate
spacers to the thickness that centers the meter.
NOTE
By rotating the hex-nut spacers to the correct thickness, you can center the meter to
any type of flange.
4. Gaskets are required and must be supplied by the user. Select a gasket material suitable
for the process fluid.
5. Insert gaskets between the body of the flowmeter and adjacent flanges. Position the
gaskets so that the ID of each gasket is centered on the ID of the flowmeter and
adjacent piping.
! CAUTION
Verify that the ID of the gaskets is larger than that of the flowmeter bore and pipe and
that the gaskets do not protrude into the meter entrance or exit. Protrusion into the
flowstream has an adverse effect on performance.
NOTE
If welding the flanges to the process piping is required, protect the flowmeter from
weld splatter, which could affect flowmeter accuracy. A solid sheet of gasketing
should be installed at each end of the meter during welding. Remove this sheet and
install the flange gaskets after welding.
6. Visually inspect for concentricity (centering and alignment) of mating flanges.

7. Install the rest of the studs and nuts and tighten the nuts in accordance with
conventional flange bolt tightening practice (that is, incremental and alternate
tightening of bolts). If flanges cannot be properly aligned, align the meter with the
upstream flange rather than the downstream flange.

83S Sanitary Flowmeter

Firmly secure the cable that connects the flowmeter body to the electronic housing. The support
should be approximately 30 cm (12 in) from the flowmeter body. A loose cable may cause wear at
the cable connection and can result in signal noise. The temperature limit of the cable is 105°C
(220°F). Do not support the cable on a surface exceeding this temperature. See Figure 8.

The flowmeter body has six different end connection possibilities. The end connections on your
flowmeter body were specified as part of your order. All end connections are welded to the
flowmeter body. The mating end connections, gaskets, and clamps are supplied by you, the user.
! WARNING
The maximum pressure limit of the flowmeter is 1.9 MPa (275 psig) or the limit of
the end connection used, whichever is less.
For interpretation of model code references, refer to PL 008-713 on your CD-ROM.

Dimensional information on the end connections can be found in DP 019-154 on your
CD-ROM.
Mounting the Electronics Housing

The electronic housing can be either pipe or wall mounted. Do not mount the electronic housing
on process piping. Excess vibration may damage the amplifier and amplifier housing. Support the
cable that connects the flowmeter body to the electronic housing. The support should be
approximately 30 cm (12 in) from the electronic housing. A loose cable may cause wear at the
cable connections (see Figure 9). The temperature limit of the cable is 105°C (220°F). Do not
support the cable on any surface that exceeds this temperature.

Field Termination Wiring

NOTE
The wiring installation must conform to local and national regulations applicable to
the specific site and classification of the area.
The housing comes with a safety-agency approved threaded metal plug in one of the conduit
holes and a plastic plug in the other. After the conduit or cable gland is connected, plug the
unused hole with the metal plug using thread sealant.
Remove the field terminal compartment cover (shown in Figure 10) to make field wiring
connections. Keep the electronic module compartment cover closed to prevent moisture and
atmospheric contaminants from entering the compartment. When replacing the cover, tighten
the cover to compress the O-ring seal.

Twisted pair wiring should be used to prevent electrical noise from interfering with the dc current
output signal. In some instances, shielded cable may be necessary. Earthing (grounding) of the
shield should be installed at one point only (at the power supply). Do not ground the shield at the
transmitter.
Transmitter connection polarities are indicated on the terminal block. If the loop is to contain
additional instruments, install them between the negative terminal of the transmitter and the
positive terminal of the receiver, as shown in Figure 11.
The required loop power supply voltage is based on the total loop resistance. To determine the
total loop resistance, add the series resistance of each component in the loop (do not include
transmitter). The required power supply voltage can be determined from Figure 12.

The transmitter will function with an output load less than 250 ohms, provided that a
configurator is not connected to it. Connecting a configurator to a loop with less than 250 ohms
may cause communication problems.
As an example, for a transmitter with a loop resistance of 500 ohms, referring to Figure 12, the
minimum power supply voltage is 22 V dc, while the maximum power supply voltage is 42 V dc.
Conversely, given a power supply voltage of 24 V dc, the allowable loop resistance is from 250 to
565 ohms.
NOTE
1. The power supply must be capable of supplying 22 mA.
2. Power supply ripple must not allow the instantaneous voltage to drop below
12.5 V dc at the transmitter.
3. The recommended minimum load is 250 ohms.
4. For wiring to an I/A Series system, refer to MI 019-194 on your CD-ROM.
Model 83 -A
Twisted pair wiring should be used to prevent electrical noise from interfering with the dc current
output signal. In some instances, shielded cable may be necessary. Earthing (grounding) of the
shield should be at one point only at the power supply. Do not earth (ground) the shield at the
transmitter.

Transmitter connection polarities are indicated on the terminal block. If the loop is to contain
additional instruments, install them between the negative terminal of the transmitter and the
positive terminal of the receiver, as shown in Figure 11.
The required loop power supply voltage is based on the total loop resistance. To determine the
total loop resistance, add the series resistance of each component in the loop (do not include
transmitter). The required power supply voltage can be determined by referring to Figure 12.
Figure 13. Load Requirements - Model 83 -A
As an example, for a transmitter with a loop resistance of 600 ohms, referring to Figure 12, the
minimum power supply voltage is 24 V dc, while the maximum power supply voltage is 50 V dc.
Conversely, given a power supply voltage of 24 V dc, the allowable loop resistance is from 0 to
600 ohms.
NOTE
1. The power supply must be capable of supplying 22 mA.
2. Power supply ripple must not allow the instantaneous voltage to drop below
10.5 V dc.
Model 83 -F
A flowmeter with FOUNDATION fieldbus communications protocol connects to the bus. Power
for the flowmeter is supplied by a FOUNDATION fieldbus power supply module which may be
connected anywhere on the bus. Therefore, the power supply and receiver connections shown in
Figure 11 are not applicable. Also, there are no polarity requirements with FOUNDATION fieldbus
devices.
21
3-Wire Hook-Up
NOTE
4-Wire Hook-Up is preferred. For 3-Wire Hook-Up, refer to MI 019-194 (83 -
D), or MI 019-199 (83 -T), on your CD-ROM.
4-Wire Hook-Up
A separate loop is required when a pulse output is also required. This loop requires its own power
supply. Refer to Figure 14. Select the resistor so that the current through the contact closure does
not exceed 250 mA.

Electronic filtering is provided in the electronic module to reduce the effect of noise and vibration
on the vortex signal. The electronic module noise filter is set at the factory based on the customer-
specified flow range. The electronic module filter consists of both high and low frequency noise
23
MI 019-145 – June 2010 3. Quick Start
filters. Each filter can be independently set, allowing the filtering to be tailored to each
application. The filters are settable by the switches on the front of the electronic module.
For most installations, there should be no need to change the filter.
Approximate Filter Settings

If the filters have not been factory set, or if no information is available on either the frequency at
maximum flow or the frequency at low flow cut-in, the following settings are recommended as
initial settings.

Setting the Electronic Module Filters

NOTE
The approximate filter settings shown in Table 6 are satisfactory for many
installations.
The high frequency noise filter switches are labeled A, B, and C, on the electronic module label
board. They are set based on the upper range frequency (calibration frequency) using Table 7.
Choose a filter setting for which the upper range frequency falls within the correct step listed in
the table. This frequency is shown on the label on the front of the electronic module.
The upper range frequency must be known even when the meter is to be used in the pulse output
mode.
The low frequency filter switches are labeled D, E, and F and are set according to the low flow
cut-in frequency. This may be determined from the rangeability factor shown on the sizing
program. Simply divide the upper range frequency by the rangeability. Then refer to Table 8 to
set the switch positions.

Low Flow Cut-in Switches

The low flow cut-in selection determines the minimum flow rate that the electronic module can
measure and return a nonzero indication of flow. Occasionally, erratic output conditions can
occur at low flows. This is due to system noise such as pulsing pumps, surging flows, or vibrating
pipes.
To eliminate these false signals, the low flow cut-in can be raised. Raising the low flow cut-in by
one step will increase the low flow cut-in by a factor of two.
All flowmeters are set at the factory to the LOW low flow cut-in position, which is the default
setting. This setting can be increased to achieve greater noise immunity as described above. It may
be decreased for lower flow rate measurement capability as shown in Table 9.

Calibration Switches
Your flowmeter has been factory calibrated to the specified Upper Range Value (URV). If the
correct flow range was specified with the purchase order, and the 4 to 20 mA output mode switch
(J) and the signal noise filter switches (A-F) have been set correctly, no further calibration is
required. If you are using a different flow range or further calibration is required for some other
reason, refer to MI 019-189 on your CD-ROM.
NOTE
Setting switch J to the pulse output mode disables the calibration switches.
Calibration for URV is unnecessary in the pulse output mode.
NOTE
Certain installations and flow conditions affect flowmeter performance. These
effects can alter the calibrated K-factor in either the 4 to 20 mA or pulse mode. To
correct for these effects, refer to MI 019-189 on your CD-ROM.
Models 83 -D, 83 -T, 83 -F

Each flowmeter is shipped from the factory with an operating configuration database. However,
the flowmeter will not provide an accurate measurement if the configuration does not fit your
application. Be sure to check the configuration of your flowmeter prior to start-up.
If the user information is not supplied with the purchase order, the flowmeter is shipped with the
following defaults:

Answering a Question
There are several places in the menu tree where a question is displayed, such as LOOP IN
MANUAL? To answer Yes, press ENTER, for No, press ESC.
Password
The CALIB, TEST, and CONFIG submenus require a password (a 4-character alphanumeric
string). Select the CALIB, TEST, or CONFIG menu from the top level, and press ENTER at the
PASSWD prompt. Two brackets surrounding four spaces ([ - - - - ]) then appear on the second
line of the display. The cursor, a flashing icon, appears at the first character.
To enter the password, use the up and down arrows to scroll through the list of acceptable
characters. After selecting the desired character, press the right arrow to move to the next
character. Continue this process until the password is complete. Pressing the right arrow once
more moves the flashing cursor to the right bracket. Pressing ENTER now completes the process.
Prior to pressing ENTER, you can use the left and right arrows to move back and forth to modify
an incorrect selection.
If you enter an incorrect password, the display indicates SORRY for one second, then returns to
the PASSWD prompt.
After you enter the correct password, the following message appears: LOOP IN MANUAL?. Press
ENTER if Yes, ESC if No. Yes moves you into the calibration, test, or configuration submenus.
No returns you to CALIB or CONFIG in the main menu.
The default password from the factory for TEST, CALIB, and CONFIG is [ - - - - ], (four spaces).
To enter it quickly, press the ENTER key five times.
33
Activating an Edit, Pick-List, or User Menu Block

To open a menu block that allows you to edit or select data or to perform a function, move to the
menu block and press the right (ESC) arrow key.
Editing Numbers and Strings

Editing any number or string in the menu system is done in the same way as entering the
password. The up (BACK) and down (NEXT) arrows scroll through a list of acceptable characters
for the current position. The left arrow (ENTER button) moves the cursor to the left. It also
accepts the change at the end. The right arrow (ESC button) moves the cursor to the right. It also
cancels the change at the beginning.
There are three kinds of edit items: signed numbers, unsigned numbers, and strings.
Signed Numbers
Signed numbers always have a + or - sign at the beginning. The + can only be changed to –, and
vice versa.
Unsigned Numbers
For unsigned numbers, cycle through the digits 0-9, and the decimal point, with the up and
down arrows. For example, try changing the CONFIG/FLUID/DENSITY item to 8.200.
When you enter a decimal point in any position, and there is already a decimal point to the left of
the cursor, the new decimal point overrides the old one.
Strings
Characters in strings can be changed to any valid character. The sequence of characters you can
get for strings by pressing the up and down arrows is: space, A-Z, a-z, 0-9, period, dash, slash. To
enter the change, you must still press ENTER from the right side of the data field, after scrolling
to the right side with the right arrow.
Picking from a List

Picklist items allow you to choose a value from a flowmeter-supplied list of alternatives. Go to,
and press ENTER. The entire bottom line of the display flashes. If you press the up or down
arrows, the display shows the next or previous choice from its list. Pressing ENTER accepts the
change; pressing ESC returns the previous value.
Setting the Units or Upper Range Value

The flow and total units can be selected from pick lists in the FLOW and TOTAL parameters
respectively. Both are located in the Configuration menu. You can also set the desired maximum
flowrate of the flowmeter via the upper range value (URV) parameter in the Configuration menu.
34
Using the Menu Tree

Pressing the ESC button stops the display of measurements, and shows the first menu item,
DISPLAY. From here, the four buttons allow you to move around the menu tree, as indicated by
the arrows. Press the down (NEXT) arrow repeatedly to cycle through each of the top level
(Level 1) menu items. Refer to “Menu Tree Menus (1 through 8)” on page 37 as you move
around.
NOTE
Each menu item has its level (1 - 4) displayed at the beginning of the top line.
The four buttons also allow you to move up and down the picklists, as indicated by the arrows.
Also, pressing ESC moves you from the current level to the next higher level. Pressing ESC
within the top level menu returns you to the Measure block.
A functional overview of the menu tree is presented in Table 16.

PASSWD Change Passwords
The menu tree used to carry out local configuration is shown on the following pages. Each block
on the menu diagram signifies a menu item. The text in the block indicates the title of the item,
and any data displayed. The text under each block indicates the type of menu item. There are five
item types: Branch, Edit----, Picklist, Group, and UserFunc.
♦ Branch items do not display or edit data, but simply move you to another menu item
depending on which key is pressed.
♦ Edit ---- items* display a numeric (real or integer) or string value, which can be edited.
35
♦ Pick-List items* display one of several alternatives, which you can select. Pick-List
items have the available choices enclosed in a dashed box to the right of the item.
♦ Group items display, alternately, a parameter name and its value/units. You are not
allowed to change them at this point in the menu tree.
♦ UserFunc items do not display or edit data, but instead allow you to activate a built-in
function.
* Edit---- and Picklist items marked R/O (read only) display the associated data, but
you cannot change them at this point in the menu tree.
