1 Overview
This guide provides basic guidelines for the installation,
configuration, commissioning, operation and maintenance of the
Rosemount SAM42 Acoustic Particle Monitor. This guide is also
available electronically at Emerson.com/Rosemount.
The SAM42 Acoustic Particle Monitor is a non-intrusive sand
monitoring system that measures in real time the amount of solid
particles in oil, gas or multiphase flow lines.
This device is designed to be installed in hazardous area locations.
The device has options for Explosion proof (Ex-d) protection or
Intrinsically Safe (Ex-ia) protection available. As the operational
temperature of the piping which the device may be mounted on can
vary, there is a Standard Temperature (ST) version which can operate
up to 266 °F (130 °C) and a High Temperature (HT) version which
can operate up to 554 °F (290 °C). Both versions are available in
either Ex-d or Ex-ia protection methods. Figure 1-1 details the main
components of a SAM42 Acoustic Particle Monitor.
