Rosemount 8700M platform adds Modbus output and scalable power supply

Emerson Process Management has announced the addition of Modbus RS485 and a low power offering to its Rosemount 8700M magnetic flowmeter platform. The platform’s intelligent diagnostics help users across a variety of industries take advantage of improved installation, maintenance and process management practices.

Diagnostic features include SMART meter verification and electrode coating detection, providing users with information about the flowmeter, installation and process. This enables more informed decision-making, easier identification of process issues and simplified flowmeter verification.

The scalable power supply options enable access to the reliability of a magnetic flowmeter, coupled with the large amount of data available through the Modbus protocol to provide a solution especially suited to remote locations where power is limited.

The platform also leverages human-centred design concepts for easier installation. Enhanced terminal compartments offer more space and more robust connections on the sensor and transmitter, making installation and field wiring easier. The ProLink III PC-based configuration tool has been enhanced to provide a simple and intuitive way to configure the Rosemount Modbus magnetic flowmeter transmitters.
