The 414 Batch Controller can precisely measure and control batch quantities for flow applications, displaying readings for batch total, preset quantity, flow rate, and accumulated total. It has dual relay outputs, remote start/stop, no-signal alarm, and can interface to most flowmeters, with models for pulse and analog inputs. The controller provides features like automatic overrun compensation, auto restart, count up/down functions, and one or two stage valve control.

Dual relay outputs Overrun compensation Remote start/stop No-signal alarm Ticket printing with time and date Displays batch total, preset quantity, flow rate, and accumulated total
Overview The 414 Batch Controller is suited to flow applications where precise measurement and control of batch quantities is required. Batch total, flow rate, accumulated total and preset value can all be displayed in engineering units on the large LCD display. The 414 will interface to most flowmeters with versions available for pulse and analog inputs.
exceeds this limit.
Signal Time-out If the flow signal cuts out midway through a batch, the output relays are de-energized, and an alarm signalled via an open collector output. Remote Start/Stop Remote push-button switches can be connected to the rear terminal strip, to start and stop batches.
Batch Features Automatic Overrun Compensation Based on previous batches, the 414 will automatically compensate for any overrun which may be caused by slow closing valves.
Auto Restart The 414 can be programmed to automatically restart the batch after a preset time delay.
Count Up/Down The instrument can be programmed to count up from zero, or to count down from the batch quantity.
Batch Limit A maximum batch quantity can be programmed during set-up, so that the operator cannot enter a batch size that
End of Batch An End of Batch signal is provided via an open collector transistor output.

Batch Controller Model 414 Models Available Model 414A Analog input version with both linear and square law input relationships.
Model 414B Frequency input version that will accept pulse and open collector inputs from opto-sensors or Hall effect devices.
Computer/Printer interface An RS232 and RS422/485 option is available for interfacing to computers and printers. The interface allows the Batch Controller to be fully controlled from a computer via an ASCII protocol. Software drivers are included for a number of printers and can print a ticket with time and date, a sequential delivery/ batch number and the batch and accumulated totals. An optional header for the ticket can also be printed.
Operation Four key switches on the front fascia, enable the batch quantity to be set, and batch operations to be started, stopped or reset. To set a batch quantity, the BATCH SET key is pressed, and then the and L keys can be used to change and increment digits. Once set, the BATCH SET key is again pressed to return to Run mode. Keypad operations are straight forward and four LED's indicate the operational status at all times. In Run mode, the DISPLAY key can be used to display flow rate, batch and accumulated total. The unique four key function simplifies operation, making the instrument suited to use by operators with minimal training. L
One or two stage valve control
Two output relays provide control for single or dual stage valve operation. The first relay will energize at the start of the batch, and de-energize when the batch is complete. The second relay can be programmed to energize at a set time after the start, and to de-energize at a set quantity prior to completion of the batch. This feature enables a slow start-up and slow shutdown of the flow. The Batch Controller can also be programmed to count up from zero or down from the Batch quantity.
Versatile performance options
The instrument will operate from 12 to 28V DC or from 100/110V AC mains. The fascia is fully watertight to IP65 (Nema 4x) and is resistant to most chemicals. The standard instrument is supplied as panel mount. Field enclosures are optionally available.
