Features

● SENSORPROM
– All SITRANS F M electromagnetic flowmeters feature a unique SENSORPROM
– At commissioning the flowmeter commences measurement without any initial
– The factory settings matching the sensor are stored in the SENSORPROM
● USM II "Plug & Play" add-on communication modules
USM II - the Universal Signal Module with "Plug & Play" simplicity makes it easy to access
and integrate the flow measurement with almost any control system. It ensures the
flowmeter will be easy to upgrade to new communication platforms in the future, too.
● CAN communication
The transmitter operates internally via an internal CAN communication bus. Signals are
transferred through a signal conditioner to the display module and to/from internal/external
option modules and the dialog module.
● Dialog module
The display unit consists of a 3-line display and a 6-key keypad. The display shows a flow
rate or a totalizer value as a primary reading and can be changed from the factory-set
English to ten other languages. In the Operator menu setup it is possible to configure the
display to show various different menus.
● Output module
The output module converts flow data to analog, digital and relay outputs. The outputs are
galvanically isolated and can be individually set to suit a particular application.

Theory of operation

The flow measuring principle is based on Faraday's law of electromagnetic induction.
