Description
SITRANS FMT020 Electromagnetic Flow Transmitter
Overview---SITRANS FMT020
Siemens designed the new magnetic flow meter transmitter model SITRANS FMT020 as a high-performance, robust and intelligent product. It fits perfectly for a wide area of process applications that require accurate and reliable flow measurement of conductive fluids.
The SITRANS FMT020 is the next generation successor for the well-proven MAG 5000 and MAG 6000 transmitter series. The FMT020 retains all the unique features of this transmitter series such as the flexible installation concept with common housing for compact and remote mounting. It also maintains the modular design supporting easy exchangeability of the transmitter as well as the add-on communication modules, or the Sensorprom memory unit for fast commissioning, instant measurement, and data storage.
In addition, the FMT020 features the ability to simultaneously measure volumetric flow, flow velocity and electrical conductivity. It also offers enhanced diagnostics like empty pipe monitoring and device self-check, and comes with multi-functional input/output channels for process control, a unified operating concept and much more:
- High accuracy up to 0.2% of rate
- 3 totalizers for forward, reverse, and net flow
- Multi language, menu-guided operation
- Field bus: HART, PROFINET, EtherNet/IP, MODBUS RTU
- Integrated self-verification via SIMATIC PDM, Webserver and SITRANS mobile IQ
The transmitter can be configured locally via display and remotely over Fieldbus or Webserver. EDDs are available for SIMATIC PDM, AMS Device Manager, and AMS Trex Device Communicator, plus DTMs for FDTs (Field Device Tools).
Benefits---SITRANS FMT020
- Backwards compatible with older (up to 15 years) flow meter sensors (MAG 5100W)
- Fast start-up without zero-point adjustments
- Variety of functions for comprehensive device check, self-diagnosis, and onboard verification
- Verificator compatible - Independently verifies performance of sensor, transmitter, and installation (including cable) without process interruption
- Easy to use HMI display with local four-button programming, menu-driven parameters, and Wizard support for key applications
- Multi-functional outputs for process control, minimum configuration with analog, digital (pulse, frequency, status), and relay output
- SD memory card for data logging, configuration backup, and firmware update
- Seamless field device integration in host systems
Application
Siemens engineered the SITRANS FMT020 transmitter for high performance, easy installation, commissioning, and reduced maintenance.
The device is a truly robust solution and suitable for all-around applications but is also the ideal choice for demanding applications where higher diagnostics capability and functionality are important.
The transmitter can be combined with magnetic flow sensors of type SITRANS FMS500.
A flow meter sensor for all water and wastewater applications. With its coned design, increased low-flow accuracy is achieved making it especially useful for leak detection. It is suitable for direct burial and constant flooding. The SITRANS FMS500 complies with drinking water approvals.
Accuracy: 0,4% of rate, option for: 0,2% of rate
Range: DN 15 … 1200 (½ … 48")
Design
Integral-mount design
For devices with an integral-mount design, the transmitter and the sensor form a single mechanical unit.
Remote mount design
For devices with a remote mount design, the transmitter and sensor are mounted in separate locations. The electrical connection between the transmitter and the sensor is provided by sensor cables.
