Rosemount Model 8732C Integral Mount Magnetic Flowmeter System
4-4
BASIC CONFIGURATION
The basic configuration functions of the Model 8732C must be set for all
applications of the transmitter in a magnetic flowmeter system. If your
application requires the advanced functionality features of the Model
8732C, see Special Units Configuration on page 4-5.
Units Units variable specifies the format in which the flow rate will be
displayed. Units should be selected to meet your particular metering
needs. The choices are shown below:
The maximum flow rate information is not updated as the available
units appear, but only after the data are entered. The maximum flow
rate on the second line of the display is for informational purposes, and
cannot be changed directly by the user.
If the transmitter is totalizing, the numerator of the unit of measure is
used by the transmitter as the volumetric unit for totalization and
pulse output scaling. For example, if gal/min is selected, the Model
8732C totalizes and provides a pulse output in gallons.
Line Size Line Size (tube size) must be set to match the actual flowtube
connected to the transmitter. The size is set at the factory before the
flowtube is shipped. If a value is entered from a control system or
HART Communicator that does not match one of these figures, the
value will be rounded to match the nearest choice.
The tube size choices available are as follows:
0.15, 0.30, 0.50, 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, 18, 20, 24,
30, 36, 42, 48, 54, 60 (inches).
NOTE
The second line on the LOI screen, MAX FLOW, is strictly for
informational purposes and indicates the maximum flow rate for a
given line size.
Tube Cal. Number The tube calibration number is a 16-digit number used to identify
flowtubes calibrated at the Rosemount factory. It provides detailed
calibration information to the Model 8732C. This number is set at the
factory before the flowmeter is shipped.
Upper Range Value Upper Range Value (URV) is preset to 30 ft/s at the factory. The units that
appear will be the same as those selected under the units parameter.
The URV (20 mA point) can be set for any forward or reverse flow rate.
Flow in the forward direction is represented by positive values; flow in
the reverse direction is represented by negative values. The URV can be
any value from –30 ft/s to +30 ft/s, as long as it is at least 1 ft/s from the
Lower Range Value (LRV)(4 mA point). The URV can also be set to a
value less than the LRV, which would cause the transmitter analog
output to operate in reverse, with the electrical current increasing for
lower (or more negative) flow rates.
