  • Page 23: Description

    Description Measurement of liquids and gases SITRANS F C Coriolis mass flowmeters are designed for measurement of a variety of liquids and gases. The flowmeters are multi-parameter devices offering accurate measurement of massflow, volumeflow, density, temperature and, depending on product variants, fraction, including industry-specific fractions.

  • Page 24: Design

    Description 3.1 Design Design The SITRANS FC410 flowmeter uses the Coriolis principle to measure flow. The device is a one channel flowmeter with Modbus RTU RS 485 output. Image 3-1 Flowmeter - M12 connection Image 3-2 Flowmeter – terminated cable...

  • Page 26 Description 3.3 Modbus RTU technology Features The SITRANS F Modbus RTU communication complies with the Modbus Serial Line Protocol. Among other things this implies a master / slave protocol at level 2 of the OSI model. A node (the master) issues explicit commands to one of the slave nodes and processes responses.

    Description 3.4 Features Features ● The SITRANS FC410 can be used as Modbus slave in stand-alone or parallel operation on Modbus or third party automation systems ● Compact sensor design ● NAMUR conforming sensor built-in lengths (on request) ● High immunity against process noise ●...
  • Page 28 Description 3.5 Theory of operation When the media flows through the sensor, Coriolis force will act on the measuring tubes and cause deflection which can be measured as a phase shift between Pickup 1 and Pickup 2. The phase shift is proportional to the mass flowrate. The frequency (or period) of the vibration is a direct function of the process media density.

  • Page 29: Installing/Mounting

    Installing/Mounting SITRANS F flowmeters with minimum IP67/NEMA 4X enclosure rating are suitable for indoor and outdoor installations. ● Make sure that specifications for rated process pressure (PS) and media temperature (TS) plus ambient temperature that are indicated on the device nameplate / label will not be exceeded.

    Pressure guard selection Siemens does not supply the components of the pressure guard solution because the arrangement and components are closely related to individual safety and protection practices in each place.
  • Page 37 Installing/Mounting 4.1 Flowmeter installation The selection of pressure guard solution is the responsibility of the user, however Siemens recommends the following forms of pressure guard: ● A pressure switch screwed directly or piped into one of the purge ports and connected to an automatic shut-off valve will disable pressurized supply to the meter.
  • Page 38 Installing/Mounting 4.1 Flowmeter installation 4. Make sure that the pressure guard does NOT touch any of the parts inside the sensor. Maximum of 20 mm (0.79") insertion can be accommodated. 5. Check that the pressure guard has been correctly mounted and thoroughly tightened (torque: 80 Nm).

  • Page 39: Connecting

    It is recommended to use cables supplied by Siemens A/S, Flow Instruments. ● Siemens supplied cables can be ordered with M12 plug on both ends or without plug. ● To guarantee the IP67 degree of protection, ensure that both ends of the cables are given equivalent protection from ingress of moisture.

  • Page 89 Troubleshooting/FAQs 10.2 Troubleshooting Calculating the measurement error Given the Zero Point Standard Deviation, the error expected for different flow rates can be calculated, without performing time-consuming measurements. So using this formula, one can assess if the application can be used as–is, or whether to use more time improving the installation.
  • Page 90 Troubleshooting/FAQs 10.2 Troubleshooting As can be seen, in this case it is not so important that the standard deviation is 1 kg/h. The error due to the zero point is only 0.1% for a flowrate of 1000 kg/h, and even less for a higher flowrate.
  • Page 91 Troubleshooting/FAQs 10.2 Troubleshooting installation should be improved or the pump should be exchanged, for example to another type. 2. Check for cross talk. Turn off the power to the other flow meter(s) and wait approximately 2 minutes, so the vibrating tubes in the sensor have stopped vibrating. Then check if the zero point stability has improved, that is that the fluctuation in kg/h has been reduced.

    CRC calculation The Cyclical Redundancy Checking (CRC) field is two bytes, containing a 16–bit binary value. The CRC value is first generated by the transmitting device, which appends the CRC to the message. The receiving device recalculates a CRC during receipt of the message, and compares the calculated value to the actual value it received in the CRC field.

    Glossary Coriolis The Coriolis effect is an apparent deflection of moving objects from a straight path when they are viewed from a rotating frame of reference. The effect is named after Gaspard-Gustave Coriolis, a French scientist who described it in 1835. The Coriolis effect is caused by the Coriolis force, which appears in the equation of motion of an object in a rotating frame of reference.
