12.1 General Description
The Converter Model S4 converts the flowrate proportional flow signals from an electromagnetic flowmeter
primary into the conventional output signals. These measurement values are shown on a full-graphic 4 line
lighted display. In addition, the measurement values are also transmitted to a scaled pulse output, current
output and using HART-Protocol communication. In the variant PROFIBUS PA, the measurement values are
transmitted over the PROFIBUS and are also available at a contact output. The flow range end value of the
converter can be set within the range from 0.5 m/s to 10 m/s. This metering system is especially suited for
applications with fast changing or two phase flows.
The incorporation of a digital signal processing assures a high system reliability especially in interference
environments, noise intensive fluids and for fast changing flows. Furthermore, standard are a pulsation free
current output, pulse output (active or passive), fast response times, automatic empty pipe detection and
much more. Therefore this EMF is especially suited for demanding applications and two phase flows.
