Prosonic M
10 Endress+Hauser
Output
Output signal according to the instrument version ordered:
• 4…20 mA with HART protocol
• PROFIBUS PA
• FOUNDATION Fieldbus
Signal on alarm Error information can be accessed via the following interfaces:
• On-site display (error symbol, error code and plain text description)
• Current output (error current configurable)
• Digital interface
Load HART Minimum load for HART communication: 250 Ω
Output damping Freely selectable, 0 to 255 s
Linearisation The linearisation function of the Prosonic M allows conversion of the measured value into any unit of length
or volume. In open channels or measuring weirs, also a flow linearistion is possible (calculation of the flow from
the measured level). The linearisation table for calculating the volume in an horizontal cylindrical tank is
preprogrammed. You can also enter any number of other tables containing up to 32 value pairs either manually
or semi-automatically (by filling the vessel under controlled conditions).
The supplied FieldCare operating program can automatically calculate the table for any tank, weir or flume and
upload it into the device.
Flow curves for open channels can be calculated and entered into the instrument by the FieldCare as well
(→ ä 28, "Operation with FieldCare").
