Overview
Updated: 09/25/2024
The CloudBox & CloudLink have 3 terminals used to connect a pulser to the system. The 3 terminals are used for pulser power, pulse input, and ground. The CloudBox and CloudLink share the same terminals but have different labeling:
CloudBox V1.4
| 12V+ | |
| Pulse | |
| GND | |
| Level |
CloudBox V1.0-1.3
| PWR | |
| ENC/INP | |
| GND |
PWR and 12V+ are the same electrically, just have different labels. The same is true for Pulse and ENC INP. The CloudBox V1.4 also has a level terminal for tank level sensors, but this is currently unused.
CloudLink V1.4
| 12V+ | |
| ENC/INP | |
| GND |
CloudLink 1.0-1.3
| PWR | |
|
ENC/FILL |
|
| GND |
As with the difference between the 1.4 CloudBox and the 1.4 CloudLink. The only difference is the labels. PWR is the same as 12V+ DC output. ENC INP / ENC FILL is the same as the pulse input.
Terminal Explanation
12V+ (PWR)
The 12V+ terminal is used for pulsers that require a 12VDC power source. Typically these pulses are 3 wire active pulsers.
Pulse (ENC INP / ENC FILL)
The pulse input terminal is used to receive the pulses from the metering device. This terminal is required for both active (3 wire) and passive (wire pulsers).
GND (DC Ground)
The GND terminal is also required for all pulsers and is the return path for all pulsers, whether it’s an active or passive pulser.
Best Practices
- Pulser wires should be in separate low voltage conduit than AC and power wires
- Pulser wire should be twisted pair
- Pulser wire should have a shield / drain that is connected to earth on one end only
- Keep pulser wires at a minimum of one inch away from AC / power wires.
