3.1 System components
A SITRANS F M MAG 5000/6000 flowmeter system includes:
Transmitter (type SITRANS F M MAG 5000/6000)
Sensor (types: SITRANS F MAG 1100/1100F/3100/3100 P/5100 W)
Communication module (optional) (types: HART, PROFIBUS PA/DP, MODBUS RTU RS
485, Foundation Fieldbus H1, Devicenet)
SENSORPROM memory unit
Communication solutions
The SITRANS F USM II range of add on modules, presently including HART, Foundation
Fieldbus. MODBUS RTU RS 485, PROFIBUS PA / DP and Devicenet, are all applicable with
the SITRANS F M MAG 6000 transmitter.
3.2 Operating principle
The transmitters are microprocessor-based with a built-in alphanumeric display in several
languages. The flow measuring principle is based on Faraday's law of electromagnetic
induction. Magnet coils mounted diametrically on the measuring pipe generate a pulsed
electromagnetic field. The liquid flowing through this electromagnetic field induces a voltage.
The transmitters evaluate the signals from the associated electromagnetic sensors, convert
the signals into appropriate standard signals such as 4 ... 20 mA, and also fulfil the task of a
power supply unit providing the magnet coils with a constant current.
The transmitter consists of a number of function blocks which convert the sensor voltage into
flow readings.
3.3 Applications
The pulsed DC-powered magnetic flowmeters are suitable for measuring the flow of almost
all electrically conductive liquids, pastes, and slurries with max. 40% solids.
The main applications can be found in the following sectors:
Water and waste water
Chemical and pharmaceutical industries
Food & beverage industry
Mining and cements industries
