SYSTEM HARDWARE DESCRIPTION
System 1010BX is housed inside a cylindrical explosion-proof NEMA-7 aluminum, epoxy painted
case. The main metering compartment front and rear sections are sealed with an O-Ring with
separate threaded covers. The front section houses the main electronics and the optional
Magnetic Touch-Panel User Interface with a 2x16 character LCD Alphanumeric Display view-
able through a tempered glass window. The rear section contains terminal blocks for the fused
power input and data I/O wiring. The primary instrumentation output is an isolated 4-20 mA
current loop. The meter includes a conventional RS-232 I/O port.
The main metering compartment is connected to the secondary housing by an aluminum pipe
that provides a pass-through for flow transducer and temperature sensor cabling. The second-
ary housing provides screw-on wire clamp terminals for flow and temperature sensors. To
maintain the NEMA-7 explosion-proof rating, all cabling and the transducer physical and elec-
trical design must be in compliance with hazardous area specifications.
