OW-300 Series Water Cut Meter
OW-300 Description
The AGAR OW-300 series water cut meter is a third-generation of oil/water analyzers designed to measure
the volumetric concentration of water in the oil stream in the low water cut (WC) range. The principle of
OW-300 operation is based on measuring the complex permittivity properties of the flow stream using the
energy absorption of multiple high frequency wave method. The fluid permittivity is a unique monotonic
function of WC and the instrument uses the permittivity to calculate WC. OW-300 measures the volumetric
water concentration over the low water cut range in the oil continuous phase. The instrument provides
temperature compensation of the reading. The energy absorption of multiple high-frequency wave method
allows compensation for the effect of changing hydrocarbon composition (different types of crude oils) and
for water salinity. The accuracy of the OW-300 measurement is not affected by changing salinity, density,
viscosity, temperature or velocity of the components being analyzed. The OW-300 is available in two
models: the OW-301, a spool-type configuration; and the OW-302, an insertion-type assembly.
The OW-300 instrument consists of three sub-systems: the Sensor Unit; the Data Acquisition System; and
the Safety Barrier Box.
2.1.1
Sensor Unit (SU)
The SU consists of:
• A Probe/Antenna with or without an open guard
• An Enclosure with the Sensor Transmitter - Measuring Electronics Board (MEB)
• A Seal Housing (SH) for the OW-302 or a Spool for the OW-301
The antenna assembly consists of an antenna, a cylindrical open guard and a cylindrical shaft
where coaxial feeder to the antenna is mounted together with the platinum RTD (temperature
sensor). The enclosure with the sensor transmitter (MEB) is mounted on the top of the antenna.
For the OW-302, the seal housing provides a sealed connection to the isolation valve mounted on
the pipeline nozzle. The OW-300 antenna is intrinsically safe.
The Measuring Electronics Board (MEB) generates multiple high-frequency signals that are
transmitted to the antenna. The antenna radiates high-frequency signals into the measured fluid
that is surrounding it, and the reflected signals from the measured fluid are transmitted back to the
MEB where the voltage and frequency of multiple high-frequency signals are measured The fluid’s
complex permittivity is calculated from this measurement.
2.1.2
Data Acquisition System (DAS)
After all corrections (i.e. temperature, water salinity, and crude oil pattern recognition) the value of
water cut is calculated in the Data Acquisition System (DAS). The DAS is a single-board computer
that receives frequency and voltages data from the MEB, and with software modeling, calculates
the water concentration of the fluid in the sensor. The DAS can be remotely mounted from the field
sensor.
The OW-300 has a flow meter input channel available that can be a pulse input or a 4-20 mA input
to obtain liquid flow rates as outputs from the water cut meter. The DAS has (6) six 4-20 mA output
channels that represent the water concentration, temperature, oil flow rate, water flow rate and
liquid flow rate. By integrating the flow rate from a flow meter over time, and measuring the water
concentration, the DAS calculates the liquid flow totals for oil and water. The DAS can
communicate to a distributed control system (DCS) or other user equipment using MODBUS
through an RS-232, RS-422 or RS-485 serial communication channel or HART through a 4-20mA
analog channel. Status, process temperature, water concentration, liquid flow rate, oil flow totals

OW-301 Overview
The AGAR OW-301 is a spool-piece design water cut meter available for 1” to 4” flow lines. The sensor
should be mounted in a location where the fluid will be well-mixed (normal recommendation is vertical flow
upwards). The spool piece is available in an “L” or “U” shaped design, or a straight inline design. In
addition, the OW-301 has stable performance in common pipelines where the fluid composition can change
regularly.

OW-302 Overview
The AGAR OW-302 has a patented seal housing that connects to a full-port isolation valve, which allows
installation and retraction of the sensor while the pipeline is in service and under pressure. The OW-302
probe is inserted through the valve and nozzle into the flow lines 6” and larger. An insertion tool is
available (and recommended) for insertion into high pressure lines. The sensor has a blow-out preventer
to ensure that the sensor cannot be extracted past the seal housing. The OW-302 probe is mounted
perpendicular to the flow in a vertical section with ascending flow at a point where the fluids are well-mixed
to ensure proper measurement.

General Installation Considerations
•
Stray magnetic or electric fields of high intensity may disturb the operation of the meter. A large
electric motor or transformer placed in the vicinity of the meter may produce a magnetic field large
enough to affect the meter.
•
Good standard practice suggests that it is important to avoid locating the meter near such sources
of interference and to avoid passing the signal cable over or near cables carrying high AC voltages
or large currents.
•
Make sure to remove the protective covering from the flow meter flanges before installation.

3.5
All required grounding should be performed before the instrument is put into operation.
Mechanical Installation
As the OW-300 comes in two particular designs – spool-piece and insertion type – thus, mechanical
installation is contingent on the instrument type.
3.5.1
OW-301 Mechanical Installation
The OW-301 sensor is designed to be installed in pipelines 1” to 4” diameter. The mounting
arrangement is shown in Figures 3-1, 3-2 and 3-3. The piping must be able to support the
weight of the instrument. Add bracing as appropriate. All process connections and instrument
dimensions are shown in the set of customer drawings provided with the unit. A homogeneous flow
must be maintained through the instrument to obtain the specified accuracy.
For OW-301 mechanical installation, consider the following factors:
• If practical, install the OW-301 downstream of a pump or choke to ensure a well-mixed flow
stream.
• If practical, install the instrument in a vertical pipe run, upwards flow direction preferred.
• If practical, install a static mixer upstream of the meter. Figure 3-1 shows a blind TEE
upstream of the meter as a static mixer.
• The liquid stream must be free of gas. Entrained gas will affect the water cut measurement.
(Gas will lower the water cut reading).
• Use the Pitot Tube (13) and Sampling Valve (14) to take fluid samples for the analysis.

3.5.2
OW-302 Mechanical Installation
The OW–302 sensor is designed to be inserted in 6” or larger pipelines. When mounted with an
isolation ball valve, the shaft of the retractable sensor probe is sealed against loss of fluids. The
valve may be opened and the probe extended into the process stream without depressurizing the
pipeline. Once in service, the probe may be retracted for inspection or relocation without
depressurizing the pipeline. The OW-302 assembly is engineered for installation on a 2” nozzle
with probe insertion through a 2” nominal, full-port valve. Larger size isolation valves and nozzle
piping may be specified.
The mounting arrangement is shown in Figure 3-4. The piping must be able to support the
weight of the instrument. Add bracing as appropriate. All process connections and instrument
dimensions are shown in the set of customer drawings provided with the unit. A homogeneous flow
must be maintained through the instrument to obtain the specified accuracy.
3.5.2.1
OW-302 Installation Considerations
For OW-302 mechanical installation, consider the following factors:
• If practical, install the OW-302 downstream of a pump or choke to ensure a well-mixed flow
stream.
• If practical, install the instrument in a vertical pipe run, upwards flow direction preferred.
• Provide at least 6 ft (2 meters) straight piping upstream from the meter.
• The liquid stream must be free of gas. Entrained gas will affect the water concentration
measurement. (Gas will lower the water cut reading).
• Flow through the OW-302 may be in either direction. Ensure proper clearances are provided
around the instrument for installation and maintenance.
NOTE: Verify the isolation ball valve is 2” FULL-PORT or larger, prior to installation. If the pipeline
has been “hot-tapped”, ensure that the actual opening in the pipe is in accordance with system as
designed.

OW-302 Sensor Insertion
Insert the OW-302 sensor using the following steps, with numbering references to Figure 3.4.
A. Verify the sensor is fully retracted into the seal housing.
B. Verify the compression-fitting nut (13) on the top of the seal housing is secured (hand-tight plus
¼ to ½ turn by wrench), so the probe is secure (cannot slip axially) in the seal housing.
WARNING MESSAGE!!!
CAUTION: Do not over-tighten the nut. The ferrules may become
permanently seated onto the shaft body, making insertion and
retraction impossible.
C. Find the probe length L from the set of customer drawings provided with the unit to calculate
La: La = L - Lv – Lp. Mark the length of La on the shaft (5).
D. Lift the instrument into alignment with an appropriate forklift or crane and attach the flanged
seal housing (4) to the isolation valve (3). Bolt the flanged seal housing (4) of the meter to the
isolation valve (3).

E. Ensure the drain valve (9) on the seal housing (4) is closed, and the safety chain (11) is
hooked with minimal slack.
F. Crack open the isolation valve (3) to allow the liquid pressures to equalize on both sides of the
valve. Visually check for leaks; if none are found, fully open the isolation valve.
G. For low-pressure installation with no insertion tool, loosen the compression fitting nut (9) on the
top of seal housing (6) slightly, slowly slide probe by hand in the “INSERTION” direction to
extend the probe through the isolation valve and into the pipeline, then go to step “J”.
WARNING MESSAGE!!!
CAUTION: Reconnect the safety chain (8) for every 3” of travel to
eliminate slack and reduce the risk of injury to personnel.
H. For pressures above 50psi, an insertion tool may be provided (and is recommended) to assist
in installation of the probe section. For standard insertion tool, continue with step “I”.
I.
When using the standard insertion tool, loosen the compression fitting nut (13) on the top of
seal housing (4) slightly, and then rotate the hand-wheel of insertion mechanism (6) slowly in
the “INSERTION” direction to insert the probe through the isolation valve and into the pipeline.
WARNING MESSAGE!!!
CAUTION: Reconnect the safety chain (11) for every 3” of travel to
eliminate slack and reduce the risk of injury to personnel.
J.
Stop insertion at marked position on the shaft (5).
K. Reconnect the safety chain (11) with a minimum amount of slack; the chain should be straight
for better protection.
WARNING MESSAGE!!!
CAUTION: The safety chain (11) should be as straight as possible
with the probe in the fully inserted position to reduce the risk of
injury to personnel.
L. Hand-tighten the compression fitting nut (13) and then tighten it with a wrench approximately ¼
to ½ turn (just enough to keep the probe from being forced out of the pipe by the maximum
operating pressure).
M. For insertion tool installation, reverse the hand-wheel of insertion mechanism a little to release
cable stress.
N. Optional: Remove or secure the isolation valve lever (3) or hand-wheel to prevent accidental
damage to the OW-302 probe.

WARNING MESSAGE!!!
CAUTION: If the pipeline is pressurized, exercise utmost caution
when inserting the OW-302. The instrument is designed where the
probe (5) must be assembled into the seal housing (4) from the
end facing process pressure. As a result, there is a mechanical
stop that prevents the probe (5) from been ejected completely
from the seal housing (4); however, the line pressure will tend to
force the probe (5) to the fully retracted position when the
compression fitting nut (13) is loosened.
WARNING MESSAGE!!!
CAUTION! Serious personal injury could result if the OW-302 were
allowed to be forcibly retracted without proper restraint by the
safety chain (11) or cranking mechanism – insertion handle (6).
The moving portion of the instrument can strike any installer
standing in the path of the probe (5) and sensor transmitter (7).
WARNING MESSAGE!!!
CAUTION! DO NOT STAND IN THE PATH OF THE PROBE during
insertion or retraction. If these procedures or cautionary notes are
not completely clear, contact the Application Department at Agar
before attempting to install or remove the OW-302.
3.5.4
OW-302 Sensor Removal
The removal procedure for the OW-302 sensor is the same as the insertion procedure with a few
steps reversed. The same CAUTIONS that were applicable to insertion apply equally to removal.
Remove the OW-302 sensor using the following steps, with numbering references to Figure 3.4.
NOTE: the safety chain should always be attached for protection. Loosen the chain whenever the
chain is tight.
A. Ensure the safety chain (11) is secure.
B. Loosen the compression fitting nut (13).
C. For no insertion tool, insert the probe slightly by hand and go to step “E”.
D. When using the standard insertion tool, rotate the insertion tool hand crank in the
“INSERTION” direction until the safety chain (11) is slack enough to be disconnected from the
probe (5).
E. Hand-tighten the compression fitting nut (13) to hold the probe (5) in place.
F. Remove the safety chain (11) from the quick link and reattach it with six (6) inches of slack.
NOTE: The safety chain should always be attached for protection. It can only be detached
when the compression fitting nut is holding the probe secure.

G. For no insertion tool, hold the probe by hand and loosen the compression fitting nut; retract by
hand and repeat steps E & F until probe is fully retracted into the seal housing, then proceed to
step “J”.
H. If using the insertion tool, loosen the compression fitting nut (13) again and rotate the insertion
tool hand crank (6) in the “RETRACTION” direction until the probe (5) is retracted with enough
slack still in the safety chain (11) to repeat steps E & F.
I.
Repeat steps E, F and H until the probe comes to a positive stop inside the seal housing (4);
this will be the blowout preventer seating against the compression fitting.
J.
Tighten the compression fitting nut (13) to hold the probe in place.
K. Close the isolation valve (3) completely. If there is any resistance from the ball valve closing,
STOP, and open the isolation valve; make sure the probe is fully retracted.
NOTE: Prepare to use a container to catch fluid trapped inside the seal housing. Remember
the same pressure that is in the line is trapped in the seal housing. Hold the container around
the drain valve on the seal housing and open it slowly to allow the pressure and fluids to drain
from the seal housing.
L. Ensure the isolation valve (3) is not leaking fluids from the line into the seal housing (4) and
then remove the OW-302 from the isolation valve (3) using an appropriate forklift or crane.
M. Install a proper-sized blind flange on the Isolation valve (3).
NOTE: Do not remove probe from the seal housing unless it is absolutely necessary.
3.5.5
Hydrotesting
Prior to initial operation of the system, the OW-300 instrument and the manifold should be tested to
the pressure integrity of new piping and to eliminate leaks. The hydrostatic leak test shall be
conducted in accordance with ANSI/ASME B31.3 with a test pressure of no less than 1 ½ times the
design pressure at design temperature. The holding time for the leak test should be at least 10 min.
Joints and connections should be examined for leaks. The pressure test is intended to uncover any
damage that might have occurred during shipping.
NOTE: Check the instrument nameplate for the design pressure and temperature of your specific
instrument.
3.5.6
ATEX Installation Safety Requirements
When an aluminum enclosure is used for the sensor electronics (puck) and it is installed in a Zone 0
environment, all exposed aluminum surfaces are covered with a durable coating and the apparatus
must be mounted in such a manner as to remove the risk of sparks caused by friction or impact.
Please refer to EN60079-0:2006 clause 8.1.2.
A single run of Type B intrinsically-safe cable connecting the sensor electronics and the DAS must
be effectively protected from damage, for example, by running the cable in conduit. Please refer to
EN60079-14:2003 clause 12.2.2.8.
The medium around the probe must not be potentially explosive or outside the pressure,
temperature and oxygen limits listed in EN60079-0:2006 clause 1.

Electrical Installation
WARNING MESSAGE!!!
CAUTION! Opening the DAS or barrier explosion-proof enclosures in hazardous areas may
cause an explosion. Follow local codes and regulations for maintenance work of electrical
equipment in hazardous areas. Do not remove enclosure covers in explosive atmospheres
when the circuit is live.
Electrical connections should be made according to the local code of practice, for example; BS5345 in
Europe or article 500 of the NEC (NFPA 70) in USA. Connections to explosion-proof enclosures should be
made through rigid conduit or approved cable glands. Available entries are equipped with close-up plugs;
these can be removed to allow attachment of the conduit/cable system.
3.6.1
System Interconnection
The OW-300 consists of three main sub-systems: the DAS, the sensor probe with the sensor
transmitter (MEB), and a safety barrier box. The DAS is electrically connected to the MEB via safety
barriers that are installed inside an explosion-proof (EXD) enclosure (barrier box). The barriers are
connected to the sensor transmitter via an intrinsically safe cable that provides the power and
RS-232 communication between the DAS and the sensor transmitter. The DAS is connected to the
barrier box through an EXD cable. The maximum cable length allowed between the DAS and the
barrier box is 50 ft, and between the barrier box and the sensor is 50 ft. -- totaling 100 ft. See
“Cabling for the OW-300 Series Meters” in APPENDIX A. Since the cable between the barrier box
and the sensor is providing intrinsically safe signals, the cable parameters must follow the OW-300
ATEX certification. Follow the supplied customer-wiring diagram for the interconnection between the
DAS and sensor. See the Communication/Power Terminal Enclosure drawing in APPENDIX B for
location of the terminals.
3.6.2
Power Connection
Prior to connecting power to the OWM DAS, verify the instrument nameplate to ensure the supplied
voltage matches instrument requirements. Connect power to the power supply terminal TB2 as
shown in the Customer Wiring Diagram in APPENDIX B (refer to Figure 3-7 and Figure 4-1). The
cable can be 12 to 18 AWG.
Figure 3-7. TB2 Terminal Legend

Analog Outputs
Six (6) 4-20 mA output channels are available on the DAS (see Figure 3-12 #2). The outputs can be
configured as any of the following options: % water cut, temperature, oil flow rate, water flow rate

and total liquid flow rate. The flow rates are only available when a flow meter is connected to the
OW-300. A twisted pair, 18 AWG cable should be used to connect to the equipment. All the analog
output channels provided are active which means that no power is required. See the Customer
Wiring Diagram in APPENDIX B for the analog output connections.

3.6.4
Pulse Outputs
Three isolated pulse output channels are available from the DAS (see Figure 3-12 #5). The outputs
are configured to provide pulse outputs for Total Liquid, Total Water, and Total Oil Volumes. If
DO2+/- output channels are wired, contact an Agar service technician to access them. See the
Customer Wiring Diagram in APPENDIX B for more information.
Figure 3-9. Pulse Outputs
3.6.5
Data Communication
The OW-300 instrument provides a port for data communications between the instrument and a
PLC or DCS via MODBUS or HART protocols. Please note: MODBUS is a serial communications
protocol published by Modicon in 1979 for use with its programmable logic controllers (PLCs). It
has become a default standard communications protocol in industry, and is now the most
commonly available means of connecting industrial electronic devices.
The main reasons for the extensive use of MODBUS over other communications protocols are:
• It is openly published and royalty-free
• Relatively easy industrial network to deploy
• It moves raw bits or words without placing many restrictions on vendors
MODBUS allows for communication between many devices connected to the same network, for
example, a system that measures temperature and humidity, and then communicates the results to
a computer. MODBUS is often used to connect a supervisory computer with a remote terminal unit
(RTU) in supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA, LabVIEW) systems. Versions of the
MODBUS protocol exist for serial port and Ethernet.
For serial connections, two variants exist, with different representations of numerical data and
slightly different protocol details. MODBUS RTU is a compact, binary representation of the data.

configured for the RTU variant will not communicate with nodes set for ASCII, nor the reverse.
The HART Communications Protocol (Highway-Addressable Remote Transducer Protocol) is an
early implementation of Fieldbus, a digital industrial automation protocol. Its claim to fame is that it
can communicate over legacy 4-20 mA analog instrumentation wiring, sharing the pair of wires
used by the older system. According to some, due to the huge installed base of 4-20 mA systems
throughout the world, the HART Protocol is one of the most popular industrial protocols today. For
this reason, RS-232 and RS422/485 serial channels are provided for communication between the
SBC and customer equipment (see Figure 3-12 #1). RS-232 communication can generally be
transmitted up to ~ 50 feet/15m and RS422/485 until 4000 feet/1200m. See the MODBUS Register
Map in APPENDIX A and the Customer Wiring Diagram in APPENDIX B.
3.6.6
Flow Meter Input
A flow meter can be connected to the OW-300 using an analog input channel or a pulse input
channel.
3.6.6.1
Analog Flow Input
When connecting a flow meter to the OWM through an analog input channel, connect to the analog
input terminal block on channel 3 (see Figure 3-13 #4). It will accept a 4 to 20 mA analog signal.
See Customer Wiring Diagram for flow meter input connections in APPENDIX B.
3.6.6.2
Pulse Flow Input
When connecting a flow meter to the OWM through the pulse input channel, it will accept a 0.1 to
24 volts pulse input. The pulse input is capable of measuring input frequencies up to 2,000 Hz (see
Figure 3-12 #3).

SECTION 5:
5.1
Configuration and Operation
Overview
The OW-300 series water cut meter represents a new generation of embedded Windows-based meter from
Agar Corporation Inc. The meters consist of a probe with a sensor (often referred to as a “puck” for its
resemblance to a hockey puck) mounted on top and a cable leading to a Data Acquisition System (DAS).
The probe is inserted into the process fluid and the sensor takes basic raw measurements and sends them
back to the DAS for processing. The DAS takes data from the sensor and uses it to calculate very accurate
water cut (WC). The DAS can also take inputs from flow meters and can calculate flow information.
Figure 5-1. OW-300 Enclosure Closed
Figure 5-2. OW-300 Enclosure Open
Standard outputs from the DAS include water cut, stream temperature, oil flow rate, water flow rate, total
flow rate, oil total volume, water total volume and total liquid volume. The outputs are available via industry
standard 4-20mA analog output, HART and MODBUS. In addition, the system provides an alarm relay and
three relays for additional alarms or flow output.

Operation
5.2.1
Connecting to the DAS
All operation and configuration is conducted via OWM300Win®.software running on the DAS.
There are two ways to access the software. One is by opening the DAS enclosure and attaching a
keyboard and monitor directly to the Single Board Computer (SBC). The other is by connecting an
external computer to the DAS via a standard network and using a VNC software client.
5.2.2
Network Connection
In order to connect to the DAS via the network, a network connection must be established. A
standard RJ-45 network socket is located inside the communication enclosure on the side of the
DAS enclosure (see Figure 5-4).

There is a DHCP server running on the DAS that will provide a proper network address. Connect a
standard network cable from the PC to the RJ-45 connector on the DAS and wait for the PC to
establish a connection. Once the connection is established, an IP address on the 192.168.239.xxx
network will appear. Verify this by looking at the current network settings as shown in Figure 5-6.
Figure 5-6. Local Area Connection Status Screen
For advanced troubleshooting situations, there is also a second network port available on the DAS.
It is located on the SBC inside of the DAS enclosure. The second connection can be used to
connect the DAS to a customer’s network. This port is configured to obtain an IP address
automatically FROM THE CUSTOMER. Once the DAS is established on the customer’s network, it
may be possible to access the DAS via the VNC Viewer from any workstation on the customer’s
network or even from the Internet. This enables Agar’s home office to provide direct support
through the Internet. See Detailed Instructions for Connecting to the DAS via VNC, form ACI-A7.5.1-PRO-070 in APPENDIX A or check with your network administrator for connection of a DAS
to the Internet. For further information on networking and network configuration, please contact
Agar tech support or your network administrator.
5.2.3
Using VNC
VNC is software that is used to remotely access the desktop (display, keyboard and mouse) of
another computer on a network. It is similar to other remote-access programs: PCAnywhere® or
GoToMyPC®. The VNC server is installed on the DAS and a VNC viewer is required to connect to
the DAS. VNC Viewer may be downloaded for free from the Agar website:
http://www.Agarcorp.com/ or the UltraVNC website: http://www.uvnc.com/. VNC is an open
standard and there are a number of free viewers available on the Internet. There are viewers
available for Windows, MAC, Linux, and others. Agar recommends the use of UltraVNC Viewer.
Once the network connection has been established, VNC Viewer can be started by clicking on the
UltraVNC Viewer Icon (Figure 5-7).

calculated for the dry oil. If it seems like a reasonable number (1.7 to 2.8), then click OK; if not,
then click CANCEL and try again.
Setting the Zero Method 2:
If the water cut of the fluid being measured is NOT known, take a sample of the process fluid. The
sample should be taken from a sample port as close to the OW sensor as possible.
NOTE: Do not use the drain valve on the seal housing to take samples.
While the sample is being taken, go to the diagnostic screen and write down the External
Temperature and the High Frequency Corrected Oil Continuous Value. Have the sample analyzed
for water content only; disregard any sediment.
Figure 5-21. External Temperature
Figure 5-22. High Frequency Oil Continuous Corrected Value (In KHz)
When the water cut sample information comes back, go to the calibration screen and make sure
the Use Manual Calibration is checked. Fill in the Oil Calibration field with the water cut from the lab
and fill in the recorded External Temperature and Frequency Value.
NOTE: make sure to enter the frequency in Hz.

Click the Oil Calibration button. This will cause the meter to calculate the epsilon of the dry oil at
the time the sample was taken. A typical epsilon for dry oil is around 2.0 to 2.4. A dialog popup will
appear that shows the epsilon calculated for the dry oil. If it seems like a reasonable number (1.7
to 2.8), then click OK; if not, then click CANCEL and try again.
Setting the span can be done in one of two ways. Both methods require the probe is set in the
flowing process with water cut near the top limit of the process.
Setting the Span Method 1:
If the water cut of the fluid being measured is known, then simply fill in the known water cut in the
Span Calibration blank and click the Span Calibration button. A dialog box will be presented
showing the span calibration number. Ideally it would be 1.0. If the number looks reasonable (0.9 to
1.1), then click OK: otherwise, click CANCEL and try again.
Setting the Span Method 2:
If the water cut of the fluid being measured is NOT known, make sure the number in the Span
Correction Oil Continuous Low Cut blank is 1.0. Then write down the meter’s water cut value. Then
take a sample of the process fluid and send it to the lab for analysis. Once the lab returns the water
cut percentage in the sample, use the formula below to calculate the correction factor:
Enter the calculated correction factor into the Span Correction Oil Continuous Low Cut blank. Then
click the Save Span Correction button. A dialog will pop up confirming the new value. Click OK to
save the new value.
5.2.11 OWM300Win® Analog Output Test
The analog output test box is used to output a known value on the 4-20mA analog outputs. This is
often used to test the meter connection to the control system.
To activate the analog output test place a check in the Analog Out Test check box on the
Calibration Screen, and then simply select the current level to output from the list. Once the analog
output test is done, make sure to uncheck the Analog Out Test check box.

Troubleshooting “OWM Communication Error”
On an OW-300 water cut meter, the operator may receive an error message: “OWM Communication Error”.
Most of the time, this error can be traced to wiring problems. To troubleshoot, the operator must trace and
verify the wiring from the DAS through the barrier enclosure to the OW-300 sensor. A step-by-step
procedure has been developed to aid in troubleshooting this error message. The procedure should be
followed with power applied to the DAS and all of the wiring from DAS to barrier to sensor connected. See
“OWM Communication Error” Troubleshooting Procedures, ACI-A-PRO-058 in APPENDIX A. See wiring
diagrams DASO4076-CD (for the DAS1000 style interface board) or DASO4088-CD (for the new DAS1019
style interface board) in APPENDIX B.
