Wiring Precautions 
 (1)Be sure to use thick walled steel conduit (22mm) 
for signal and excitation cable wiring between the 
detector and converter. Use flexible conduit at the 
cable outlets of the detector and converter. 
(2) Connect the grounding wire (IV wire 5.5mm² or 
more) to a good earth ground (100
Ω or less ground 
resistance). Make the wire as short as possible. Do 
not use a common ground shared with other 
equipment where earth current may flow. An 
independent earth ground is recommended. 
(3) The allowable cable lengths between the detector 
and converter for the separate type flowmeter 
depend on the electrical conductivity of the object 
fluid. See Figure 4 below. 
(4) Digital output 1, digital output 2 to 4 , digital output 
1 to 2 are insulated mutually.

About establishment environment 
Do not store or install the flowmeter: 
• Where there is direct sunlight. 
• Where excessive vibration or mechanical shock 
occurs. 
• Where high temperature or high humidity 
conditions exist. 
• Places where corrosive atmospheres exist. 
• Places submerged under water. 
• Place where there is sloped floor. To put the 
flowmeter temporarily on the floor, place it 
carefully with something, such as stopper, to 
support it so that the flowmeter will not topple over. 
In areas like the following, there may be the case that 
infrared switches do not function correctly. (If these 
are unavoidable, use an appropriate cover.) 
(1) Where unit (operation panel) is exposed to direct 
sunlight, reflection of light onto window pane and 
diffused light reflection. 
(2) Where smoke and steam may occur. 
(3) Where exposed to direct snow, ice or mud. 
 
 
Ordering Information 
1.   When ordering the LF232 converter, refer to 
Tables 1 (Type Specification Code).  
An entry must be made for each of the columns in 
each of these tables. 
2.   Measuring range 
3.   I/O function specifications. 
4.   Ordering scope: 
 Actual flow calibration data: (required or not) 
5.   Specification of combined detector 
6.   Other scope: 
         Specification other than standard items. 
 
Consult a Toshiba representative before ordering.
