The flow totalizer refers to the secondary instrument of the flowmeter, which is responsible for sampling, conversion, calculation, and data storage. It is used with a primary meter to form a complete flow meter. The primary meter often refers to the sensor part, such as an orifice throttling device.

The flow totalizer controller collects, displays, controls, remotely transmits, communicates, and prints various signals such as on-site temperature, pressure, and flow. It constitutes a digital acquisition system and control system, with LCD and digital display, and various external dimensions. It is suitable for flow accumulation measurement and control of various liquids, general gases, superheated steam, and saturated steam. It can carry out quantitative/batch control of the medium (with start, stop, and clear functions), and it can be used with various flow sensors or transmitters to adapt to various measurement control occasions.

Flow totalizer working principle

The flow totalizer is composed of four parts: measurement loop, digital panel meter, regulator and power supply.

The stabilized power supply converts the 220V power supply into a stable DC voltage as the other part of the power supply.

The measurement loop processes the signal (voltage, current, etc.) sent by the flow transmitter into a voltage signal.

After A/D conversion, the signal is sent to a dedicated central processing unit for processing. Not only to the digital panel meter but also to the regulator. After comparing with the set value, it outputs a control or alarm signal according to the regulation rule.

The flow totalizer is used to measure the instantaneous flow of liquid or solid in the industrial field.

The signal output by the flowmeter is generally a pulse signal or a 4-20mA current signal, both of which output instantaneous flow. Our purpose is to calculate and display the instantaneous flow value and calculate the cumulative value in the PLC.

When the input signal is a pulse signal, when calculating the instantaneous flow rate, it must be calculated in strict time intervals to ensure the accuracy of the instantaneous flow rate.

Therefore, the calculation of instantaneous flow must be done with a timed interrupt. Moreover, only this one interrupt program can be run in the PLC system, and no other interrupts are allowed (even low-priority interrupts are not allowed to run). To prevent interference with the accuracy of the time interval of the timing interruption.

Calculating the instantaneous flow rate is to convert the number of accumulated pulses in this time period into the accumulated flow rate. Divided by time is the instantaneous flow.

For 4-20mA input, the instantaneous flow can be directly obtained by simply converting according to its corresponding range. The cumulative flow is to add up the cumulative flow in each time period.

In the actual use of PLC programming, the following issues must be paid attention to:

(1) Whether the input pulse frequency range exceeds the receiving range of the PLC;
(2) How to ensure correct calculation when the PLC high-speed counter reaches the maximum count value;
(3) How to ensure that the timing interruption is not disturbed;
(4) How to avoid errors in calculating the cumulative amount;
(5) The maximum cumulative digits of the cumulative amount;
(6) How to reset the totalizer.

Totalizer vs Flow Meter

A pure totalizer is not a flow meter.

Usually, flow meters measure instantaneous flow. If you need to know the total amount of flow, you need to use a totalizer.

A complete flow detection system includes several parts such as sensing, transmission, calculation, integration, display, etc. Each part can be an independent instrument. It is also possible to integrate several functions into one watch.

Many flow totalizers on the market now integrate calculation, totalization, and display. It includes most of the functions of the flow system. Some manufacturers set the totalizer and other parts as flow meters and use the name of the complete set on the totalizer. If you buy the totalizer alone, you will see that the name is flowmeter.

So the flowmeter [maybe] includes a totalizer, but the totalizer is not a flowmeter.

If you get here, you still can’t find a suitable product. Then let us take a more detailed look at the functions and applications of the Flow Totalizer Meter.
