Emerson Process Management’s Rosemount 8800 vortex flowmeters now offer HART Protocol Revision 7, which allows for easier identification in the field, commissioning and configuration.
Properly identifying devices both in the field and in the control room takes the guesswork out of whether or not the correct device is being configured or commissioned. The Locate Device feature of HART 7 displays a visible code on the device’s LCD screen, which allows for quick field identification.
Once connected to the device, or while viewing from the control room, Long Tag allows for a detailed device name to be viewed or loaded into the flowmeter. Long Tag support increases the character limit from the current 8-character tag to 32 characters, allowing the user to create the descriptions necessary to track down each device.
HART 7 also offers greater flexibility for device configuration. For the most up-to-date process information, HART 7 delivers expanded burst mode capabilities to allow the vortex meter to burst up to eight variables and to trigger messages based on process events.
The vortex flowmeter also provides Sensor Signal Strength as a display and output variable. This allows for continuous health monitoring of the flow sensor both at the device and remotely as a HART variable.
