Commissioning; Operating Transmag 2 - Siemens SITRANS F M TRANSMAG 2 Operating Instructions Manual

Commissioning

Certain parts inside the device carry dangerous high voltage. The housing must be closed
and grounded before switching the device on.
The sensor connected to this device can be operated with high pressure and corrosive
media. Therefore improper handling of the device can lead to serious injuries and/or
considerable material damage.
Commisioning the device
● Switch on the power supply. The device runs a self-test which lasts about 30 seconds.
If the sensor has a SmartPLUG, the factory data of the sensor as well as essential customer-
specific tag data (range, units for flow and totalizers, flow limit values, medium density,
operating language) are transferred to the transmitter the first time you switch it on.
The tag data can then be changed permanently in the transmitter. These data are not read in
again until a new sensor is connected.
Note
Gas/air in the line
If there is gas/air in the measuring tube or in the pipeline after assembly, a flashing "F"
appears at the top of the first line in the display. The flowing medium removes the gas/air
occlusions from the tag and the flow can be measured without interference after a few
minutes.
