The new hygienic Promass S Coriolis flowmeter
At the forefront in hygienic design, the new Endress+Hauser Promass S Coriolis mass flowmeter meets all possible hygienic requirements for use in the food and beverage industry
The backbone of these compact devices is the TMT 162 HART field transmitter.
Reliable and robust, the TMT 162 offers the maximum in functional safety with EMC immunity to NAMUR NE 21 (insensitive to motors and generators), signal on alarm functions to NAMUR NE 43 and basic requirements to NAMUR NE 89 (providing information on sensor input corrosion and excess ambient temperature).
In addition, the TMT 162 is ATEX certified (Ex ia, Ex d, Ex nA) for hazardous area use and stainless steel housing is available as an option, offering excellent protection in harsh environments.
The TMT 162 features a brilliant rear-illuminated display: measured values can be easily read from a distance or in difficult conditions - day or night.
Set-up is quick and easy and can be done online, so there is no need to disconnect the measuring point when re-programming.
The loop-powered TMT 162 has 2000v galvanic isolation and a dual compartment for simple sensor connection.
The large gold-plated terminals are suitable for cables up to 2.5 mm2, for use in a wide range of applications.
In addition, redundant temperature measurement is possible via the dual sensor input, enabling automatic switching in the event of sensor failure to minimise downtime. Request a free brochure from Endress + Hauser ...
