Emerson enables efficient energy production
Emerson Process Management's Smart Wireless technology is being employed by the Laboratory Analysis group (LAPEM) of the Mexican Federal Electrical Commission (CFE).
Diagnostics continuously monitor sensor performance and allow remote warning of potential or imminent failure, thereby optimising predictive maintenance and reducing costs.
The Foundation fieldbus capability now incorporated within the Xmt unit includes hazardous area intrinsic safety approvals, according to ATEX, FM and CSA.
An agency-approved variant of Foundation fieldbus called FISCO (Fieldbus Intrinsically Safe Concept) is also available with Model Xmt.

Emerson Process Management has won a contract to install metering systems for the East Tank Farm being constructed in Suncor Energy's Voyageur Oil Sands Upgrader Operation in Fort McMurray, Alberta.
FISCO compliance enables more power in each fieldbus segment, allowing the connection of additional devices in the hazardous area.
Advantages to the plant engineer include a simplified installation, and less documentation needed to show the safety of the installation.
The low power requirements of the Xmt Foundation fieldbus and FISCO versions also reduce the plant power budget for continuous measurement.
Further simplifying installation and plant documentation, the Model Xmt menu screens can be operated in any of the six languages included in every instrument: English, French, German, Italian, Spanish and Portuguese.
This includes plain language prompts to guide the user through all programming and calibration procedures, reducing the on-site training requirements.
To better secure the device against unwanted reprogramming and calibration which can be disruptive to plant process monitoring, model Xmt implements security code access to limit operation to selected personnel, as needed.
The model Xmt has an IP65 specification and is available in panel or surface mount configurations, or can be installed using a pipe mounting bracket accessory.
Each version of the Xmt analyser can be field configured to suit plant preferences for measurement display (for example pH, ORP or Redox with model Xmt-P).
Rosemount Analytical contacting or toroidal conductivity sensors can also be coupled to the transmitter, enabling complete coverage of water purity and solution concentration measurements. Request a free brochure from Emerson Process Management ...
