Configuring Seametrics AG3000 Flow Meter for Zenseio Devices

Wiring

For Seametrics AG3000 flow meter with pulse output, connect as follows:

1. Connect Green (P3) Pulse+ wire to Zenseio GPI* (any GPI) connector
   
2. Connect White (P4) Pulse- wire to Zenseio GND (next to GPI) connector
   

ALERT: Do not connect Red (P1) DC+ or Black (P2) DC- to Zenseio box. AG3000 is either self-powered from internal battery or externally powered from another source via Red (P1) DC+ or Black (P2) DC-.

Configuration

Setting Pulse Output Scaling on the Seametrics AG3000 Flow Meter:

You should set pulse output scaling (Set P menu on the AG3000) so that the maximum number of output pulses per minute does not exceed 30,000 (but 600 or less is recommended). So, for example, if you expect the maximum flow rate to be 1000 gallons/minute, set “Set P” to a value between 2 and 200 gallons, which will result in pulse output of 500 to 5 pulses/minute, respectively. The higher “Set P” value the longer the battery life on Zenseio devices (and possibly on AG3000), but also the lower the resolution of the flow measurements.

 See the Flow Meter Setup Guide for more information on how to connect Seametrics AG3000 Flow Meter to Zenseio CSMP or LSMP device.

Note: Only pulse counting mode is supported.
