Description
Siemens SITRANS FM TRANSMAG 2 with Sensor SITRANS FM TRANSMAG 911/E
Overview---SITRANS FM TRANSMAG
SITRANS FM TRANSMAG 2 with the SITRANS FM MAG 911/E sensor is a flowmeter using alternating (AC) field technology where the magnetic field strength is much higher than conventional magnetic flowmeters with pulsed DC field technology.
Benefits
- Wide range of sizes DN 15 to DN 1000 (½" to 40")
- Broad range of liner and electrode materials for extreme process medias
- Fully welded construction provides a ruggedness that suits the toughest applications and environments.
- Automatic reading of SmartPLUG for easy commissioning
- Simple menu operation with two-line display
- Comprehensive self-diagnostic with self-monitoring and internal simulation
Application
The main applications of the SITRANS FM transmitter TRANSMAG 2 can be found in the following sectors:
- Pulp and Paper industry
- Mining industry
The patented pulse alternating field technology is ideal for difficult applications like:
- High concentrated paper stock > 3 %
- Heavy mining slurries up to 70 % solid concentration
- Mining slurries with magnetic particles
- Low conductive medias ≥1 μS/cm
Design
- Available for remote mounting
- PROFIBUS PA (profile 2.0) / HART communication
- Analog output and digital outputs for pulses, device status, limits, flow direction, frequency output
Mode of operation
The flow measuring principle is based on Faraday’s law of electromagnetic induction according to which the sensor converts the flow into an electrical voltage proportional to the velocity of the flow.
Function
The TRANSMAG 2 is a microprocessor-based transmitter with a built-in alphanumeric display in several languages. The transmitters evaluate the signals from the associated electromagnetic sensors and also fulfill the task of a power supply unit which provides the magnet coils with a constant current.
The magnetic flux density in the sensor is additionally monitored by reference coils.
Further information on connection, mode of operation and installation can be found in the data sheets for the sensors.
Displays and keypads
Operation of the transmitter can be carried out using:
- Keypad and display unit
- HART communicator
- PC/laptop and SIMATIC PDM software via HART communication
- PC/laptop and SIMATIC PDM software using PROFIBUS PA communication
