Rosemount 8800D
Wetted Material
Wetted Material is a factory set configuration variable that reflects the
construction of your flowmeter.
• 316 SST
• Nickel Alloy
• Carbon Steel
•Spcl
Meter Body Number
Meter Body Number is a factory set configuration variable that stores the
body number of your particular flowmeter and the type of construction. The
meter body number is found to the right of the body number on the meter
body tag, which is attached to the support tube of the meter body.
The format of this variable is a number followed by an alpha character. The
number designates the body number. The alpha character designates the
meter body type. There are three options for the alpha character:
1. None – Indicates welded meter construction
2. A – Indicates welded meter construction
3. B – Indicates cast construction
Installation Effect
Installation Effect enables you to compensate the flowmeter for installation
effects caused by less than ideal straight run piping . See reference graphs
located in Technical Data Sheet 00816-0100-3250 for the percent of K-factor
shift based on entrance effects of upstream disturbances. This value is
entered as a percentage of the range of -1.5% to +1.5%.
Configure Outputs The Rosemount 8800D is digitally adjusted at the factory using precision
equipment to ensure accuracy. You should be able to install and operate the
flowmeter without a D/A Trim.
Analog Output
For maximum accuracy, calibrate the analog output and, if necessary, trim for
your system loop. The D/A Trim procedure alters the conversion of the digital
signal into an analog 4–20 mA output.
Range Values
Range Values enables you to maximize resolution of analog output. The
meter is most accurate when operated within the expected flow ranges for
your application. Setting the range to the limits of expected readings will
maximize flowmeter performance.
