  • Page 5: General Safety Instructions

    • Installation of the equipment must comply with national regulations. Example: EN 60079-14 for Denmark. • Repair and service can be done by approved Siemens Flow Instruments personnel only. • The p/T ratings indicate the relation between the maximum allowable pressure PN and the maximum allowable temperature.
  • Page 6: Measures

    The sensor is a fragile piece of equipment. Therefore, during transportation it must be placed in the transportation box originally delivered by Siemens Flow Instruments. If this is not possible, the alternative sensor packaging must be able to withstand the hazards from transportation.
  • Page 7: Description

    Description System configuration Integration The sensor can be connected to all MASS 6000 transmitters for remote installation only. All sensors are delivered with a SENSORPROM memory unit containing information about calibration data, identity, and factory pre-programming of transmitter settings. The SENSORPROM unit must be installed in the MASS 6000 transmitter. SFIDK.PS.028.S2.02...
  • Page 8: Application

    Application The industry today increasingly demands smaller mass flowmeters without loss of performance. The SITRANS FC300 coriolis mass flowmeter is available in several configurations for direct mass flow measurement of all kinds of liquids and gasses. The sensor is a multiparameter device offering accurate measurement of mass flow rate, volume flow rate, density, temperature, and fraction flow rate.
  • Page 9: Device Identification

    Device identification The nameplate located on the sensor housing front contains serial No. and other relevant technical information. Description Notified body for QA supervision: UL International DEMKO A/S, Denmark Explosion protected ATEX Equipment Group and Protection Category Medium temperature EC Approval Numbers and Protection Type Production year Ambient temperature range Interface data...
  • Page 10: Mode Of Operation

    Mode of operation The flow measuring principle is based on coriolis law of movement. The flowmeter consists of a sensor type FC300 and a transmitter MASS 6000. The FC300 sensor is energized by an electromechanical driver circuit which oscillates the pipe at its resonant frequency.
  • Page 11: Installation

    Installation Safety information for installation The SITRANS FC300 sensor can be installed for different areas of use. Depending on area of application and system configuration, there may be differences in the installation. Warning Protection against incorrect use of the measuring device. Take particular care that the selected materials for the sensor pipes and the enclosure in contact with the media are suitable for the process media used.
  • Page 12: Location

    Location The flowmeter can be located both indoors and outdoors, but the following conditions must be observed: Liquid temperature The FC300 DN 4 is available in 2 temperature versions: −40 °C to + 115 °C (−40 °F to + 239 °F) Standard version: −40 °C to + 180 °C (−40 °F to + 356 °F) High temperature version:...
  • Page 13: Orientation

    Orientation For liquid applications, use horizontal mounting. Vertical mounting Horizontal mounting In low flow applications, mount, vertically so air bubbles are easier to remove. To avoid separation of air from the liquid, we recommend a back pressure of minimum 0.1 – 0.2 bar. Mounting Mount the sensor on a wall or a steel frame vibration-free and mechanically stable.
  • Page 14: Vibrations

    Mount the sensor to the bracket using the enclosed Allen key (M8 x 20 mm), and tighten the screws properly (max. 12 Nm). Vibrations Locate the sensor as far away as possible from components that generate mechanical vibration in the pipe. Or separate from vibration generating components using flexible connections so that there is no direct connection to them.
  • Page 15: Process Pipe Connection

    Process pipe connection The process pipes can be mounted directly onto the process connections on the sensor. To obtain a proper scaling, use a wrench on the base of the process connections as counter lock to secure with the optimum torque. Pressure guard When working with operating pressures/media which may cause pipe fractures and possible injuries to people, equipment, or anything else, we recommend that special precautions are...
  • Page 16: Electrical Connection

    Electrical connection Connection safety information Warning Tightness Only when the cable is connected to the sensor, the IP67 protection is achived. Warning Installation in hazardous areas When making electrical connections, observe the national statutes and provisions for hazardous areas valid for the particular country. E.g.

  • Page 19: Commissioning

    Commissioning Commissioning When the sensor is installed and the electrical connection established, the only commissioning necessary is a proper zero-point adjustment. To facilitate zero-point adjustment, a valve with tight shut-off should always be mounted in connection with the sensor. A proper zero-point setting is essential to ensure good accuracy. SFIDK.PS.028.S2.02...
  • Page 20: Troubleshooting

    Troubleshooting Troubleshooting If after correct comissioning you encounter problems with the flowmeter, check both flow meter and application. The most frequent problems and causes are covered below. No mass flow reading Check the electrical wiring according to the wiring diagram Check that the multi-plug is properly connected to the sensor and sufficiently tightened Check that empty pipe is not active Unstable or faulty mass flow reading...
  • Page 21 Inaccurate mass flow reading 1. Make sure that the SENSORPROM unit has been properly installed in the sensor. If not, the display will show error code P40 – no SENSORPROM unit installed. If no SENSORPROM unit has been installed, the transmitter will pick a default value which will not match the sensor in question.
