This system, which has been designed for the purpose of fuelling motor vehicles, is based on mass
flow meters, which work with the principle of Coriolis forces. Such technique has many advantages
on the traditional way, which determines the quantity of fuel by using approximate calculations.
- Precision of measurement (±1%). The mass of delivered gas is determined through direct
measurement, and this is an independent parameter not affected by pressure or temperature's
condition.
- Speed of refuelling (a cylinder of 80 dm3 is filled in less than two minutes, basically the same
time required for a gasoline fill up)
- Filling of cylinder at about 98% (at end charge temperature and 220 bar pressure).
The dispenser is equipped with a system that fills a tank respecting given limits of pref and Tref an
respecting a maximum pressure pmax inside the vehicle tank.
2) APPLICATIONS
This system can be used, without affecting its metering precision, on all kind of storage systems,
such as:
- Regular storage system
- Cascade
- Direct filling by compressor units capable of compressing gas from the city distribution system
directly into the vehicle's cylinder(s).
The two measuring tubes vibrate in counter phase, in a diapason like manner. The Coriolis forces
acting on the measuring tubes create changes in the position of the oscillation phase of the tube.
During the transit of the natural gas mass, the oscillation is retarded at the inlet side and accelerated
at the outlet side. In this way, different phase positions are achieved, with a final difference of
phase.
The larger the mass flow, the grater is the difference of phase. At zero flow both phases are
identical, therefore no phase difference is sensed.
The tube oscillation at both the inlet and the outlet is read by sensors, and the sensor signals are
converted by electronics into a digital code.

4) OPERATION
The gas sent directly from the compressor or from the storages system reaches the dispenser from
medium and high-pressure lines.
Here the gas is filtered by the filters (17, 18) and intercepted by the driven valves (6, 6a) operated
by the solenoid valves (7, 7a), therefore envoy to the meters (1), which not only meters the mass but
also controls any excessive flow of gas via a built-in electronic detector.
Then through the flexible hoses (8a) the gas reaches the three-way dispenser valve (10).
This valve enables the following connections:
• Between the flexible hose (8a) with vehicles receptacle (11).
• Between the vehicles receptacle and the return hose (8a’), vented and with possible recovery.
Once the pipe connector of the flexible supply hose has been connected to the vehicle to be
refuelled, open the three-way dispenser valve then, after having opened the tap on the cylinder in
the vehicle, start dispensing the gas by manually turning the switch in the casing on the front of the
meter head.
When the flow rate falls below a pre-established value, the solenoid valve (7a) commands the
opening of the pneumatic valve (6a) and happens as the passage between medium and high
pressure, for finish the filling of the reservoir. This shut-off procedure, the value of which can be
recorded on the head as will be explained later, enables the automatic shut-off following roughly 10
seconds from when the gas flow rate dropped below the pre-established value: the tripping value
cannot be less than 0,3 kg/min whatever the case.
The head will display the parameters concerning the unit price, the quantity dispensed and the total
corresponding price and will keep them until the next refuelling procedure begins.
If the electrical power supply should be disconnected, the refuelling parameters will be saved for a
an endless amount of time in the permanent memory, so that they will be displayed when the power
supply is restored.
When the electrical power supply is restored, the CPU does not start the dispensing cycle but a new
refuelling procedure must be started.
The parameters remain displayed for at least 1 hour from when the power supply was disconnected
and are displayed again when the power supply is restored.
6a) CASING
The case is partially steel and partially fibreglass.

Display direction 2
For every head one or two displays, which are controlled step by step by the system, can be
installed. The displays are connected to port J1 and in case of a defect and disconnection of
one of the displays, the system will react and generate an alarm indicating the code. (see par.
12)
The display can be equipped with a 6 digit electromechanical totalizator for the totalization of
the supplied Kg. The totalizator will be automatically reset to zero after exceeding the value
999999. In case the totalizator will break down, an alarm will be generated on the display (see
par. 12).
When necessary the meters can be manually removed and installed on other displays to
maintain the supply value.

The operation with a single line foresees the input of a single refuelling pressure and therefore
no operations of line exchange will be carried out. Start the refuelling operation by extracting the
nozzle from its appropriate position and after having it connected onto the car, verify if the
supplier is ready by watching the flashing red light switching on and if the TEST DISPLAY
phase will be carried out. The TEST DISPLAY phase will be carried out every time you extract
the nozzle from its position and consists of the start up of all the segments of the display during
some seconds. Besides, after this phase, the last supply that was carried out will be reset to
zero and also the quantity meter of the supplied product and the total amount will be set to zero.
At this point the system is ready for the supply that will only start after pushing the
START/STOP button. The refuelling phase is indicated by the flashing red light turning into a
steady red light. Following the supply solenoid valve will be opened and the quantity of the
supplied product and the total amount will be shown on the display. When the speed of supply
has reached a lower speed than set up and after the foreseen time has passed, we have come
to the end of the supply phase and the supply solenoid valve will be closed. The end of supply
will be indicated by a green light starting to flash and then it will be possible to read the total
amount and the total quantity of the supplied product on the display. After replacing the nozzle
at its appropriate position, this leads to the switching on of the steady green light, it will be
possible to carry out other supplies repeating the above-mentioned phases. Remember that the

supply can be stopped at any time pushing the START/STOP button. In case of lack of the
power net during the refuelling phase, the supply will be immediately interrupted and the
message E 40 will appear on the field relative to the price per unit of the product. In this
situation it will be possible to view the amount and the supplied quantity for a period of 20
minutes.
The operation with a double line foresees the input of two different refuelling pressures that will
be supplied in two different sequences. Start the refuelling operation by extracting the nozzle,
connect it onto the car and verify if the supplier is ready by watching the flashing red light
switching on and if the TEST DISPLAY phase will be carried out. The TEST DISPLAY phase
will be carried out every time you extract the nozzle from its position and consists of the start up
of all the segments of the display during some seconds. Besides, after this phase, the last
supply that was carried out will be reset to zero and also the quantity meter of the supplied
product and the total amount will be set to zero. After this operation the system is ready for the
supply that will only start after pushing the START/STOP button. The refuelling phase is
indicated by the flashing red light turning into a steady red light. Following the supply solenoid
valve (out 3 media) will be opened and the quantity of the supplied product and the total amount
will be shown on the display. When the speed of supply has reached a lower speed than set up
automatically also the second solenoid valve (out 4) will be opened, which introduces high
pressure into the car that is being supplied. When, in phase of supply of the high pressure, the
supply speed will be lower than the set up quantity, the period of end of charge has passed and
the external input of end of charge is present, the end of supply will be carried out by closing all
the supply solenoid valves. The end of supply will be indicated by a green light starting to flash
and then it will be possible to read the total amount and the total quantity of the supplied product
on the display. After replacing the nozzle at its appropriate position, this leads to the switching
on of the steady green light, it will be possible to carry out other supplies repeating the above-
mentioned phases. Remember that the supply can be stopped at any time pushing the
START/STOP button. In case of lack of the power net during the refuelling phase the supply will
be immediately interrupted and the message E 40 will appear on the field relative to the price
per unit of the product. In this situation it will be possible to view the amount and the supplied
quantity for a period of 20 minutes.
The operation with a triple line foresees the input of three different refuelling pressures that will
be supplied in three different sequences. Start the refuelling operation by extracting the nozzle,
connect it onto the car and verify if the supplier is ready by watching the flashing red light
switching on and if the TEST DISPLAY phase will be carried out. The TEST DISPLAY phase
will be carried out every time you extract the nozzle from its position and consists of the start up
of all the segments of the display during some seconds. After this phase the last supply that
was carried out will be reset to zero and also the quantity meter of the supplied product and the
total amount will be set to zero. After this operation the system is ready for the supply that will
only start after pushing the START/STOP button. The refuelling phase is indicated by the
flashing red light turning into a steady red light. Following the supply solenoid valve (out 2 = low
pressure line) will be opened and the quantity of the supplied product and the total amount will
be shown on the display. When the speed of supply has reached a lower speed than set up in

the relative parameter, automatically also the second solenoid valve (out 3 = medium pressure
line) will be opened through which the gas enters at medium pressure into the tank of the car
that is being supplied. When the speed of supply has reached a lower speed than set up in the
relative parameter, automatically also the third solenoid valve (out 4 = high pressure line) will be
opened through which the gas enters at medium pressure into the tank of the car that is being
supplied. When the supply speed will be lower than the set up quantity, the period of end of
charge has passed and the external input of end of charge is present, the end of supply will be
carried out by closing all the supply solenoid valves. The end of supply will be indicated by a
green light starting to flash and then it will be possible to read the total amount and the total
quantity of the supplied product on the display. After replacing the nozzle at its appropriate
position, this leads to the switching on of the steady green light, it will be possible to carry out
other supplies repeating the above-mentioned phases. Remember that the supply can be
stopped at any time pushing the START/STOP button. In case of lack of the power net during
the refuelling phase the supply will be immediately interrupted and the message E 40 will
appear on the field relative to the price per unit of the product. In this situation it will be possible
to view the amount and the supplied quantity for a period of 20 minutes.
After having pushed the START button the head will start to supply a predetermined quantity of
gas, first supply phase, necessary to be able to measure the pressure inside the cylinders that
need to be filled, this measurement is carried out by a pressure sensor with a range from 0-
400bar. After the 7 seconds have passed, necessary to stabilize the pressure, the second
supply phase will proceed, the head will supply a quantity of gas until reaching a flow that
determines the end of the second phase. After 7 seconds have passed, necessary to stabilize
the pressure at the inside of the cylinders, it will proceed with the measurement of the pressure
and with the phase of data processing of the two supply phases, then the third supply phase will
start which finishes when reaching a pressure predetermined by the control software of the
head. The pressure of end of charge can be chosen through parameter nr. 17 of the head, or
can be set if you decide to use the compensation through the environmental temperature. The
assignment of the final pressure based on the environmental temperature is described in the
schedule. The end of supply will be indicated by a green light starting to flash and then it will be
possible to read the total amount and the total quantity of the supplied product on the display.
After replacing the nozzle at its appropriate position, this leads to the switching on of the steady
green light, it will be possible to carry out other supplies repeating the above-mentioned phases.
Remember that the supply can be stopped at any time pushing the START/STOP button. In
case of lack of the power net during the refuelling phase the supply will be immediately
interrupted and the message E 40 will appear on the field relative to the price per unit of the
product. In this situation it will be possible to view the amount and the supplied quantity for a
period of 20 minutes.

The price changes can be carried out by the operator at any time but only when there is no
supply in progress and the refuelling nozzle has been put back to its appropriate position. The
price change will be carried out by means of an external device which allows or the access of
the system parameters (see par. 12) or to change the price per unit of the product. By pushing
one of the two coloured buttons + - the part of the display indicating the price will flash and by
pushing one of the two keys again we will have, sequentially, either the increase or the
reduction of the price per unit. When the value of the desired price has been reached the
display will continue to flash for about 5 seconds. When there will be no further changes it will
turn back to its set position, showing the memorization of the new price.
The device is provided with a digital input that permits to put on hold the supply following a
logical priority or compression capacity of the station. This control is realized by an external
device, called GFC, which can be installed externally as an option.

The working of the CPU PM II is controlled by a set of system parameters that have been
developed during construction or subsequently for particular applications. The access to these
parameters occurs by pushing the PROG key, with the nozzle replaced and no supply in
progress, (red key on the keyboard price installation) for a period longer than 5 seconds. This
way we enter the programming instructions and it will be possible to skim through the
parameters by means of the Prog key. On the display intended for the price per unit the letter P
will be shown, indicating the programming instructions and the number of the selected
parameter. The value of the parameter will be shown on the display intended for the
visualization of the supplied quantity. The data can be changed by means of the +/- buttons and

The CPU PMII supplied with internal electronic totalizators can be examined by means of the
appropriate external button. The visualization is possible when no alarm is present and when
there is no supply in progress. When the visualization button is being pushed, sequentially the
system will visualize the three available meters. The two available meters will be identified by
the initials H1 and H2, which will be reported on the display concerning the price per unit and
the data will be readable from the right part of the display destined to the total amount leftwards
and using also the central display.
The totalizator H1 shows the total supplied amount with values included between 0.00 and
999999.99. When the maximum allowed value has been reached, the system will automatically
reset the value of the totalizator to 0.00. The example of figure 14.1 shows a value of

Location
Introduction The CNG050 sensor is one part of a Coriolis flowmeter—the other part
is a transmitter. The CNG050 has been designed expressly for
compressed natural gas applications.
Transmitter connections
The CNG050 sensor is available with the following transmitter
connections:
Orientation
• An integrated core processor, that connects to a remotely-mounted
Series 1000 or 2000 transmitter (Figure 1)
• A core processor and integrally-mounted Model 1700 or 2700
transmitter (Figure 2, page 2)
European installations

Troubleshooting
Location
Keys for sensor location
The sensor may be located anywhere in the process line, as long as
the following conditions are met:
• Before operation, you must be able to stop flow through the sensor.
(During the zeroing procedure, flow must be stopped completely, and
the sensor tubes must be full of process fluid.)
• During operation, the sensor tubes must remain full.
Orientation
• The sensor must be installed in an area that is compatible with the
classification specified on the approvals tag. (See Figure 1, page 1.)
• You must consider the environmental requirements of an integrally-
mounted transmitter and core processor, and the visibility of a
transmitter display.
Pipe run Micro Motion CNG050 sensors do not require a straight run of pipe
Mounting
upstream or downstream.
Valves After the sensor has been installed, you must perform the zeroing
procedure. During the zeroing procedure, flow through the sensor must
be halted and the sensor tubes must be completely full. A shutoff valve,
downstream from the sensor, is recommended to halt flow during the
zeroing procedure.
Wiring
Accessibility and visibility Select a location for the sensor where:
• Wiring compartments and conduit openings are easily accessible for
wiring, service, and troubleshooting
• The transmitter display is upright and visible
• All tags and labels attached to the sensor housing are visible.

Troubleshooting
Wiring Instructions
Use one of the following methods to shield the wiring from the core
processor to the remote transmitter:
• Install shielded wiring with drain wires connected to ground at both
ends.
• Install unshielded wiring in continuous, metallic conduit that provides
360° termination shielding for the enclosed wiring.
The sensor can be grounded via the piping, if joints in the pipeline are
ground-bonded, or by means of a ground screw on the outside of the
core processor housing.

WARNING
Improper grounding could cause measurement error.
Orientation
refer to Micro Motion UL, CSA, or CENELEC installation
instructions.
• For hazardous area installations in Europe, refer to
standard EN 60079-14 if national standards do not apply.
Mounting
• Use copper wire, 14 AWG (2.5 mm2) or larger wire size.
• Keep all ground leads as short as possible.
• Ground leads must have less than 1 Ω impedance.
• Connect ground leads directly to earth, or follow plant standards.

Troubleshooting
Location
Zeroing After the sensor and transmitter have been fully installed, you must
perform the zeroing procedure. Zeroing establishes flowmeter response
to zero flow and sets a baseline for flow measurement. Refer to the
instruction manual shipped with the transmitter for more information.
CAUTION
Orientation
Failure to zero the flowmeter at initial startup could
cause measurement error.
Configuration, calibration, and If the sensor and transmitter are ordered together as a Coriolis
characterization flowmeter, the factory has characterized the meter—no additional
characterization is necessary. If either the sensor or transmitter is
replaced, characterization is required.

with the sensor.
Troubleshooting
Weights and measures The Series 2000 transmitter, when intended for use with a CNG050
configuration lockout feature sensor, can be ordered with either standard software or with a special
weights and measures software option. When ordered with the special
weights and measures option, the transmitter comes equipped with
physical and software lockout features intended to prevent tampering
with the measurement characteristics of the flow meter after it has been
sealed by an inspector.
When the transmitter is selected with this software option, it will only
operate in one of two modes: the operating (secure) mode or the
configuration mode. The flowmeter cannot measure flow while in the
configuration mode, nor can any configuration parameters be changed
while the flow meter is in the operating mode. It is necessary to toggle
back and forth between these two modes when installing a new
flowmeter to allow for the meter to be zeroed in the configuration mode.
The flowmeter, after initial installation, can then be left in the operating
mode until such time as changes to the configuration of the transmitter
are needed.
Note: Transmitters with the weights and measures option will arrive from
the factory in the configuration mode.
To start using your CNG050 with Series 2000 transmitter weights and
measures software option, follow these basic steps after the meter has
been fully installed:
1. Verify that the transmitter is in Configuration mode (see below for
details on changing modes).
2. Zero the meter as described in the transmitter instruction manual.
3. Verify that all configuration parameters are set as desired (see the
transmitter manual for more details about specific parameters).
4. Change the transmitter to Operating (Secure) mode (see below for
details on changing modes).
5. Close and seal the transmitter housing as appropriate.
Configuration mode
In the configuration mode, all outputs configured for flow and flow
indication through the display will go immediately to zero, whether there
is flow through the meter or not. The only exception to this is the
4–20 mA output, which will continue to indicate the true flow rate, as
scaled, if it is configured for flow. Density and temperature will continue
to be indicated normally. The internal totals can be reset, but will not
increment while in this mode, even if there is flow.
In configuration mode, any and all parameters within the transmitter can
be changed. Those available through the display effecting output
scaling, as well as the larger set of parameters available through serial
communication.

sensor. Zeroing the meter can be done via the display menu. To zero,
place the transmitter in configure mode and consult transmitter manual
for further instructions.
Note: Even if it is configured for upscale fault indication (15000 Hz), the
frequency output will NOT output any pulses when in the configuration
mode, EVEN in the event of a meter fault condition.
Orientation
mode
In order to change between configuration mode and operating mode,
follow these steps:
1. Disconnect power to the transmitter.
2. Remove the windowed transmitter lid from the display. If there is no
display, remove the transmitter lid on the side of the transmitter
opposite the wiring compartment.
3. If the unit has a display, loosen the two screws on either side of the
display bezel and gently pull the display bezel straight up off the black
Mounting
plastic cover and pins underneath.
4. Locate the DIP switch through the hole in the black plastic cover. To
leave the transmitter in configuration mode, move the DIP switch to
the OFF position. To leave the transmitter in Operating mode, move
the DIP switch to the ON position.
5. Carefully match the pins to the connector on the back of the display
bezel that will leave the display bezel in the desired orientation.
Ensure that each of the pins is inserted into one of the receptacles of
the display connector that was selected.
6. Replace and tighten the two screws that hold the display in place.

7. Replace the transmitter lid and screw it tightly into place.
8. Return power to the transmitter.

Troubleshooting
Troubleshooting instructions
Several sensor problems may cause zero drift. To troubleshoot zero drift
that may be caused by the sensor:
1. At the transmitter, check the low flow cutoff value. Refer to the
instruction manual that was shipped with the transmitter.
2. Check the process connections near the sensor for leaking valves
and seals. Eliminate any leaks you find.
3. Check for two-phase flow. See Checking for two-phase flow, page 23.
4. Check for moisture in the core processor and dry out the
compartments if necessary. See Checking for moisture, page 23.
5. Make sure the sensor is not under mounting stress. See Checking for
mounting stress on the flowmeter, page 23.
6. Check for vibration or crosstalk. See Checking for vibration and
crosstalk, page 23.
7. Check for plugging or build-up on the sensor flow tubes. See
Checking for plugging or build-up, page 24.
Troubleshooting instructions
Several sensor problems may cause an erratic flow rate. To troubleshoot
an erratic flow rate that may be caused by the sensor:
Checking for moisture All wiring compartments must be fully sealed to prevent a short circuit. A
short circuit would result in measurement error or flowmeter failure.
Location
excessive moisture from accumulating:
• Seal all conduit openings.
• Install drip legs in conduit or cable.
• Check integrity of all gaskets and O-rings.
• Close and seal all housing covers.
Checking for mounting stress on Because each installation is unique, it is not possible to offer a definitive
the flowmeter solution for mounting problems. However, mounting stresses can be
Orientation
caused by one or more of the following conditions:
• The pipeline is being supported by (hung from) the flowmeter.
• Misaligned piping was drawn together by the flowmeter.
• An unsupported pipeline is not sturdy enough to support the flowmeter.
Mounting
Checking for vibration and Micro Motion sensors have been designed to minimize the effect of
crosstalk vibration. In very rare cases, however, vibration or crosstalk can affect
flowmeter operation. Crosstalk is the transfer of resonant vibration from
one sensor to another, and sometimes occurs when two like-size
sensors are installed in close proximity to each other and are operating
on the same process fluid.
Wiring
vibration or crosstalk is affecting the sensor, contact Micro Motion for
additional assistance. See Micro Motion Customer Service, page 21.
Checking for two-phase flow Two-phase flow occurs when air or gas is present in a liquid process
stream, or when liquid is present in a gas process stream. Two-phase
flow has several causes, as described below.
the low points are very low relative to the system, condensates can
accumulate and persist. If the liquid passes through the flowmeter,
measurement error could occur. One possible solution is to install
condensate valves at a low point in the system, upstream from the
meter. Use your common plant practices if you choose to install
condensate valves.
Troubleshooting
Leaks. Leaks can occur at process connections, valve seals, and pump
seals, resulting in air being introduced into a liquid stream. Air might also
be drawn in at the system inlet. Check the system for leaks, and repair
any leaks that are found.
Checking for plugging or build-up If the process fluid tends to build up in the piping, the flowmeter can
become plugged or partially plugged due to build-up of material inside
the meter’s flow tubes. To determine whether plugging or build-up has
occurred, check at the flowmeter for a high drive gain and high density
reading (see below).
• If the drive gain and the density reading are both high, flush or clean
the meter, then check for an accurate density reading on water (or
some other gas or gas with a known density). If the density is still
wrong, plugging of the tube is probably not the problem.
• If either the drive gain or the density reading is not high, plugging of the
tube is probably not the problem.
