2 Installation Location and Orientation

This section describes the orientation, location, and alignment limits for installing the Mass ProBar flowmeter. Read it thoroughly before any installation is performed.

SAFETY MESSAGES Instructions and procedures in this section may require special precautions to ensure the safety of the personnel performing the operations. Please refer to the following safety messages before performing any operation in this section.

RECEIVING AND INSPECTION

Mass ProBar flowmeters are available in different models and with different options, so it is important to inspect and know which model you have before beginning installation.

Upon receipt of the shipment, check the packing list against the material received and the purchase order. All items are tagged with a model number, serial number, and customer tag number. Report any damage to the carrier.

MASS PROBAR CONFIGURATIONS

The Mass ProBar is available in a variety of mounting configurations and has two methods of electronic mounting: integral mount (or, direct mount) and remote mount (Figure 2-1 on page 2-2). An integrally-mounted Mass ProBar may be shipped with the electronics already bolted directly to the sensor.

Explosions could result in death or serious injury:

• Do not remove the transmitter cover in explosive atmospheres when the circuit is alive.

• Before connecting a HART-based communicator in an explosive atmosphere, make sure the instruments in the loop are installed in accordance with intrinsically safe or non-incendive field wiring practices.

• Verify that the operating atmosphere of the transmitter is consistent with the appropriate hazardous locations certifications.

• Both transmitter covers must be fully engaged to meet explosion-proof requirements.

Failure to follow these installation guidelines could result in death or serious injury:

• Make sure only qualified personnel perform the installation.

FIGURE 2-1. Mass ProBar Mounting Configuration Examples: A (Integral Mount)and B (Remote Mount).

STRUCTURAL LIMITATIONS

Structural limitations are printed on the Mass ProBar sensor tag.

CAUTIONExceeding the Mass ProBar structural limitations may cause the sensor to fail.

FUNCTIONAL LIMITATIONS

The Mass ProBar best produces accurate and repeatable flow measurement under the following conditions:

• The maximum differential pressure, as printed on the tag attached to the Mass ProBar, is not exceeded.

• The Mass ProBar is not used for two-phase flow or for steam service below saturation temperature.

Install the Mass ProBar in the correct location within the piping branch to prevent measurement inaccuracies caused by flow disturbances.

Mass ProBar installation allows for a maximum misalignment of 3 degrees, as illustrated in Figure 2-2. Misalignment beyond 3 degrees will cause errors in flow measurement.

Installation Location and Orientation

Straight Run Requirements Use Table 2-1 to determine the proper Mass ProBar straightrun requirements.

NOTESFor gas service, multiply values from Table 2-1 by 1.5.

If longer lengths of straight run are available, position the Mass ProBar where 80% of the run is upstream of the Mass ProBar and20% is downstream.

Information contained in this manual applies to circular pipes only. Consult the factory for instructions regarding Mass ProBar use in square or rectangular ducts.

Straightening vanes may be used to reduce the required straight run length and will improve performance.

Row 6 in Table 2-1 applies to gate, globe, plug, and other throttling valves that are partially opened. If a “through-type” valve willremain open, use the values shown in Row 5. Refer to Row 6 for the straight run requirements of a Mass ProBar located downstreamof the control valve.

ENVIRONMENTAL CONSIDERATIONS

Mount the Mass ProBar in a location with minimal ambient temperature changes. Section 17: Specifications and Reference Data lists the Mass ProBar temperature operatinglimits. Mount the Mass ProBar to avoid vibration and mechanical shock, and to avoid external contact with corrosive materials.

Access Requirements When choosing an installation location and position, take into account the need for access to the Mass ProBar.

Process Flange Orientation The process flanges must be oriented so that process connections can be made. In addition, consider the possible need for a testing or calibration input. Drain/vent valves must be oriented so that the process fluid is directed away from technicians when the valves are used.

Housing Rotation The electronics housing may be rotated to improve field access to the two compartments. To rotate the housing less than 90 degrees, release the housing rotation set screw and turn the housing not more than 90 degrees from the orientations shown in Figure 2-3 below. To rotate the housing greater than 90 degrees, consult factory. Rotating the housing greater than 90 degrees without performing the disassembly procedure may damage the Mass ProBar sensor module.

Terminal Side of Electronics Housing

• Wiring connections are made through the conduit openings on the top side of the housing.

• The field terminal side is marked on the electronics housing.• Mount the Mass ProBar so that the terminal side is accessible. A

0.75-in. clearance is required for cover removal.• Install a conduit plug on the unused side of the conduit opening.

Circuit Side of Electronics Housing

The circuit compartment should not routinely need to be opened when the unit is in service; however, provide 0.75-in. clearance if possible to allow access.

MASS PROBAR ORIENTATION

When selecting a Mass ProBar location, proper venting or draining must be considered.

• Liquid or Steam Applications: Locate the mass proBar head below the pipe. See Figures 2-2 and 2-5.

For liquid applications, mount the side drain/vent valveupward to allow the gases to vent. In steam applications, fill the lines with water to prevent contact of the live steam with the electronics. Condensate chambers are not needed because the volumetric displacement of the electronics is negligible.

• Air and Gas Applications: Locate the Mass ProBar head above the pipe. See Figures 2-3 and 2-4.

For air and gas applications, mount the drain/vent valve down to allow any accumulated liquid to drain.

Mass ProBar instrument head connections differ on horizontal and vertical pipes. Consult your specification head code number to confirm the proper pipe orientation of the Mass ProBar.

Horizontal Pipe: Liquid or Steam Application

Due to the possibility of air getting trapped in the probe, the Mass ProBar should be located per the drawing below. The area between 0° and 50° (50° angle) should not be used unless full bleeding of air from the probe is possible. Figure 2-4 illustrates the recommended location of the flowmeter.

3 Hardware Installation for Mass ProBar Regular

MASS PROBAR MODELS: MBR+15S/16SMBR+25S/26SMBR+35S/36SMBR+45S/46S

This section provides hardware installation instructions for the Mass ProBar Regular (Threaded, Pak-Lok) for service in either a horizontal or vertical pipe. Installation procedures are similar for all services. Service-specific instructions are provided where necessary; otherwise, all instructions in this section apply to all services.

If remote mounting of the electronics is required, use this section for hardware installation. Then, see Section 8: Mass ProBar Remote Mounting for electronics installation.

• The direct mount maximum service temperature is 500 °F (260 °C).

• The electronics must be remote mounted when service temperatures exceed 500 °F (260 °C).

• Mass ProBar models with a sensor size of 15 or 16 require remote mounted electronics. After installing the sensor, see Section 8: Mass ProBar Remote Mounting for instructions on installing the electronics.

• Mass ProBar models with a sensor size of 45 or 46 are shipped with a packing guide cover instead of a compression nut.

MASS PROBAR REGULAR COMPONENTS

Figure 3-1 identifies the components of the Mass ProBar Regular. The flowmeter is shown in this position for hardware clarity; see the actual installation instructions for proper positioning of the flowmeter.

STEP 1: DETERMINE THE PROPERMASS PROBAR ORIENTATION

Orientation of the Mass ProBar depends upon two factors: the orientation of the pipe that will receive the flowmeter, and the service that uses the pipe. The following sections provide illustrations of the possible pipe orientations and services. After determining the flowmeter’s orientation, proceed with step 2 on page 3-5.

Liquid Service in a Horizontal Pipe

Install the flowmeter within 40 degrees of the vertical axis to prevent air from becoming entrapped within the probe. Do not position the Mass ProBar within 50 degrees of the horizontal axis unless full bleeding of air from the probe is possible. Figure 3-2 illustrates the recommended location for the Mass ProBar when used with liquid service.

STEP 2: DRILL THE HOLE IN THE PIPE

Follow the steps below to drill the hole in the pipe.

1. Depressurize and drain the pipe.2. Select the location for the hole you are about to drill.

Select a location anywhere around the circumference of the pipe for vertical pipes.

For horizontal pipes, the hole location depends upon the service for which the Mass ProBar is to be used:

• Liquid service: drill the hole along the bottom of the pipe• Gas service: drill the hole along the top of the pipe• Steam service: drill the hole along the bottom of the pipe3. Determine the diameter of the hole to be drilled. Use the chart

in Figure 3-7.4. After the hole is drilled, deburr the hole on the inside of the pipe.

Drill a Hole for Opposite-Side Support

A second hole must be drilled for the opposite-side support weld coupling if opposite-side support is supplied. This hole must be the same diameter as the first hole; place it directly opposite the first hole so that the sensor can pass completely through the pipe. Use the following steps to find the location for the second hole:

1. Wrap a piece of soft wire or string around the pipe to measure the pipe’s circumference.

2. Remove the wire or string and measure half of the circumference length.

3. Re-wrap the half-length around the pipe from the center of the first hole.

4. Mark the center of what will become the second hole, as shown in Figure 3-7.

FIGURE 3-7. Sensor Size/Hole Diameter Chart.

5. Deburr the drilled hole on the inside of the pipe.

STEP 3: TACK WELD THE FITTINGS TO THE PIPE

Follow these steps to tack weld the fittings to the pipe:

1. Insert the Mass ProBar assembly into the factory-supplied weld fitting (with integral support ring), then into the hole.

2. Align the head and electronics so they are parallel with the ground.

3. Tack weld the fitting(s) to the pipe and remove the Mass ProBar. See Figure 3-8 below.

FIGURE 3-8. Tack Weld the Fittings to the Pipe.

NOTEThe larger radius in Figure 3-8 must be parallel to the centerline of the pipe.

To protect the weld fitting threads from weld splatter, wrap the factory-supplied heavy aluminum foil around the threads before welding, or use a thread protector cap, as shown in Figure 3-9. Be sure to allow the mounting to cool or serious burns may occur.

STEP 4: INSERT THE MASS PROBAR INTO THE PIPE

After the mounting hardware has cooled, install the adapter body and support plug (if required), as shown in Figure 3-10. Use a sealant compound rated for use at the process temperature on the threads.

NOTEThe adapter body must be threaded into the weld fitting before the Pak-Lok nut is threaded onto the adapter body.

FIGURE 3-10. Adapter Body and Support Plug Installation: A (Liquid or Steam Service) and B (Gas Service).

1. Mark the tip of the Mass ProBar sensor with a marker. 2. Insert the flowmeter into the adapter body until the sensor tip

contacts the pipe wall (or support plug).3. Remove the flowmeter.4. Verify that the sensor tip touched the pipe wall. If the tip did not

touch the wall, adjust the adapter body until sensor tip touches the wall, and re-install the Mass ProBar.

5. Install the first packing ring on the Mass ProBar between the lock ring and the packing follower; take care not to damage the split packing rings.

6. Push the packing ring into the adapter body and against the weld-lock ring. Repeat this process for the two remaining rings, alternating the location of the packing ring split by 180°. Figure 3-11 illustrates the Mass ProBar insertion process described here.

SHIPPING NOTE All Mass ProBar Flanged models are shipped with the weld fitting and weld-neck flange pre-welded for ease of installation. To prevent injury, remove pressure and drain the pipe before installing or removing the sensor.

STEP 2: DRILL THE HOLE IN THE PIPE

Follow the steps below to drill the hole in the pipe.

1. Depressurize and drain the pipe.2. Select the location for the hole you are about to drill.

Select a location anywhere around the circumference of the pipe for vertical pipes.

For horizontal pipes, the hole location depends upon the service for which the Mass ProBar is to be used:

• Liquid service: drill the hole along the bottom of the pipe• Gas service: drill the hole along the top of the pipe• Steam service: drill the hole along the bottom of the pipe3. Use the chart in Figure 4-7 to determine the diameter of the hole

to be drilled.4. After the hole is drilled, deburr the hole on the inside of the pipe.

Drill a Hole for Opposite-Side Support

A second hole must be drilled for the opposite-side support weld coupling if opposite-side support is supplied. This hole must be the same diameter as the first hole; place it directly opposite the first hole so that the sensor can pass completely through the pipe. Use the following steps to find the location for the second hole:

1. Wrap a piece of soft wire or string around the pipe to measure the pipe’s circumference.

2. Remove the wire or string and measure half of the circumference length.

3. Re-wrap the half-length around the pipe from the center of the first hole.

4. Mark the center of what will become the second hole, as shown in Figure 4-7.

STEP 3: WELD THE WELD-NECK FLANGE

Weld the weld-neck flange and weldolet assembly to the pipe. See Appendix B: Standard ODF Dimensions for the proper ODF.

STEP 4: ASSEMBLE THE MASS PROBAR AND MOUNTING HARDWARE

1. Assemble the Mass ProBar to the mounting hardware with the gasket and bolts.

2. Hand-tighten the bolts just enough to hold the position of the Mass ProBar sensor centered in the mounting hardware.

3. Install the studs and nuts.4. Tighten the studs and nuts in a cross pattern. 5. Attach the Mass ProBar to the mounting hardware as described

below. (The high point of the contoured weld fitting will define the alignment of the Mass ProBar to the pipe. For horizontal pipes, the Mass ProBar head axis will be parallel to the pipe axis. For vertical pipes, the Mass ProBar head will be perpendicular to the pipe axis.)

MASS PROBARFLO-TAP COMPONENTS

Figure 6-1 identifies the components of the Mass ProBar Flo-Tap


The orientation of the Mass ProBar depends upon two factors: the orientation of the pipe that will receive the flowmeter, and the service that uses the pipe. The following sections provide illustrations of the possible pipe orientations and services. After determining the Mass ProBar’s orientation, proceed with step 2 on page 6-4.

Liquid or Steam Service in a Horizontal Pipe

Install the Mass ProBar within 40 degrees of the vertical axis to prevent air from becoming entrapped within the sensor probe. Do not position the Mass ProBar within 50 degrees of the horizontal axis unless full bleeding of air from the probe is possible. Figure 6-2 illustrates the recommended location for the Mass ProBar when used with liquid or steam service.

Mass ProBar Remote Mounting

Impulse Piping A remote mounted electronics is connected to the sensor by means of impulse piping. Temperatures in excess of 250 °F (260 °C) at the electronics will damage electronics components; impulse piping allows service flow temperatures to decrease to a point where the electronics is no longer vulnerable.

Each service uses a different impulse piping arrangement to maintain a single phase of fluid in the piping and Mass ProBar electronics. For example, liquid applications must maintain a liquid state and allow any air or gas formation to travel up and away from the Mass ProBar electronics, and gas applications must maintain a gaseous state and allow the formation of liquids to drain down and away from the Mass ProBar electronics.

The piping used to connect the sensor probe and electronics must be rated for continuous operation at the pipeline-designed pressure and temperature. A minimum of one-half inch (½-in., 12mm) O.D. stainless steel tubing with a wall thickness of at least 0.035-in. is recommended. Threaded pipe fittings are not recommended because they create voids where air can become entrapped and have more possibilities for leakage.

The following restrictions and recommendations apply to impulse piping location.

1. Impulse piping that runs horizontally must slope at least 1 inch per foot (83mm/m).• It must slope downwards (toward the Mass ProBar

electronics) for liquid and steam applications.• It must slope up (away from the Mass ProBar electronics) for

gas applications.2. For applications where the pipeline temperature is below 250 °F

(121 °C), the impulse piping should be as short as possible to minimize flow temperature changes. Insulation may be required.

3. For applications where pipeline temperature is above 250 °F (121 °C), the impulse piping should have a minimum length of 1-ft. (0.3048m) for every 100 °F (38 °C) over 250 °F (260 °C), which is the maximum operating Mass ProBar electronics temperature. Impulse piping must be uninsulated to reduce fluid temperature. All threaded connections should be checked after the system comes up to temperature, because connections may be loosened by the expansion and contraction caused by temperature changes.

4. Outdoor installations for liquid, saturated gas, or steam service may require insulation and heat tracing to prevent freezing.

5. For installations where the Mass ProBar electronics are more than 6-ft. (1.8m) from the sensor probe, the high and low impulse piping must be run together to maintain equal temperature. They must be supported to prevent sagging and vibration.

6. Run impulse piping in protected areas or against walls or ceilings. If the impulse piping is run across the floor, ensure that it is protected with coverings or kick plates. Do not locate the impulse piping near high temperature piping or equipment.

7. Use an appropriate pipe sealing compound rated for the service temperature on all threaded connections. When making threaded connections between stainless steel fittings, Loctite PST Sealant is recommended.

Process Considerations

The Mass ProBar process connections on the transmitter flange are 1/4–18 NPT. Flange adapter unions with 1/2–14 NPT connections are available as options. These are Class 2 threads; use your plant-approved lubricant or sealant when making the process connections. The process connections on the transmitter flange are on 21/8-inch (54-mm) centers to allow direct mounting to a three- or five-valve manifold. By rotating one or both of the flange adapters, connection centers of 2, 21/8, or 21/4 inches (51, 54, or 57 mm) may be obtained.

When compressed, Teflon® O-rings tend to cold flow, which aids in their sealing capabilities. Whenever flanges or adapters are removed, visually inspect the Teflon O-rings. Replace them if there are any signs of damage, such as nicks or cuts. If they are undamaged, they can be reused. If the O-rings are replaced, the flange bolts may need to be retorqued after installation to compensate for cold flow. Refer to the process sensor body reassembly procedure on page 5-15.

Mounting Brackets Optional mounting brackets available with the Mass ProBar facilitate mounting to a panel, wall, or 2-inch pipe. The bracket option for use with the Coplanar flange is 316 SST with 316 SST bolts. Figure 8-6 shows bracket dimensions and mounting configurations for this option.

When installing the transmitter to one of the mounting brackets, torque the bolts to 125 in-lb (169 n-m).

Explosions can cause death or serious injury. Check transmitter materials of construction and fill fluid for compatibility with the intended process fluid.

Failure to install proper flange adapter O-rings can cause process leaks, which can result in death or serious injury.

There are two styles of Rosemount flange adapters, each requiring a unique O-ring, as shown below. Each flange adapter is distinguished by its unique groove.

Use only the O-ring designed to seal with the corresponding flange adapter. Refer to the factory for the correct part numbers of the flange adapters and O-rings designed for the Mass ProBar Flowmeter.

Bolt Installation Guidelines The following guidelines have been established to ensure a tight flange, adapter, or manifold seal. Use only bolts supplied with the Mass ProBar or sold by the factory.

The Mass ProBar is shipped with the Coplanar flange installed with four 1.75-inch flange bolts. The following bolts also are supplied to facilitate other mounting configurations:

• Four 2.25-inch manifold/flange bolts for mounting the Coplanar flange on a three-valve manifold. In this configuration, the 1.75-inch bolts may be used to mount the flange adapters to the process connection side of the manifold.

• (Optional) If flange adapters are ordered, four 2.88-inch flange/adapter bolts for mounting the flange adapters to the Coplanar flange.

Figure 8-6 shows the optional mounting bracket and mounting configurations. Figure 8-7 shows mounting bolts and bolting configuration for the Mass ProBar with the Coplanar flange.

Stainless steel bolts supplied by Rosemount Inc. are coated with a lubricant to ease installation. Carbon steel bolts do not require lubrication. Do not apply additional lubricant when installing either type of bolt. Bolts supplied by Rosemount Inc. are identified by the following head markings:

INSTRUMENT MANIFOLDS An instrument manifold is recommended for all installations. A manifold allows an operator to equalize the pressures prior to the zero calibration of the Mass ProBar electronics as well as to isolate the electronics from the rest of the system without disconnecting the impulse piping. Although a 3-valve manifold can be used, a 5-valve manifold is recommended. Figure 8-8 identifies the valves on a 5-valve and a 3-valve manifold.

5-valve manifolds provide a positive method of indicating a partially closed or faulty equalizer valve. A closed for faulty equalizer valve will block the DP signal and create errors that may not be detectable otherwise. Figure 8-8 shows the DP manifold assembly and identifies the valves on both types of manifolds, and Table 8-1 provides a description of the valves. The labels for each valve will be used to identify the proper valve in the procedures to follow.

NOTESome recently-designed instrument manifolds have a single valve actuator, but cannot perform all of the functions available on standard 5-valve units. Check with the manufacturer to verify the functions that a particular manifold can perform. In place of a manifold, individual valves may be arranged so as to provide the necessary isolation and equalization functions.

NOTEThe Mass ProBar should be shipped with the instrument manifold already bolted to the electronics.

LOCATION FOR THE MASS PROBAR ELECTRONICS

The location for the Mass ProBar electronics depends upon the service to be used.

Liquid Service up to 250 °F (121 °C)

(See page 8-17 for liquid service above 250 °F.) The electronics may be installed in one of two ways, depending on the space limitations of the installation site. Refer to Figures 8-9 and 8-10 to help you determine which installation variation to use.

Recommended Location The recommended installation mounts the Mass ProBar electronics below the primary sensor to ensure that air will not be introduced into the impulse piping or the electronics. Figure 8-9 illustrates the recommended electronics location for use in either a horizontal or vertical pipe.

Steam or Liquid Service above 250 °F (121 °C)

For steam service (at any temperature) or liquid service at temperatures above 250 °F (121 °C), the Mass ProBar electronics must be installed below the process piping.

NOTESteam (or hot water) must not enter the electronics. Fill the system of impulse piping and Mass ProBar electronics with cool water before pressurizing the system.

Horizontal Pipes For horizontal steam process piping, the Mass ProBar flow sensor is mounted through the bottom half of the piping, as shown in Figure 8-13. Route impulse piping down to the Mass ProBar electronics. Fill the system with cool water through the two tee fittings.

SAFETY MESSAGES Procedures and instructions in this section may require special precautions to ensure the safety of the personnel performing the operations. Information that raises potential safety issues is indicated by a warning symbol ( ). Refer to the following safety messages before performing an operation preceded by this symbol.






• The unused conduit opening on the electronics housing must be plugged and sealed to meet explosion-proof requirements.



For explosion-proof installations, wiring connections must be made in accordance with Rosemount drawing 03095-1025 or 03095-1024.

For intrinsically safe installations, wiring connections must be made in accordance with ANSI/ISA-RP12.6, and Rosemount drawings 03095-1020 or 03095-102s1.

For ALL installations, wiring connections must be made in accordance with local or national installation codes such as the NEC NFPA 70.

BENCH CONFIGURATION AND CALIBRATION

The Mass ProBar can be configured on the bench prior to mounting in the field by using a personal computer and the Engineering Assistant (EA) Software. All Mass ProBar models have been configured using the EA software at the factory using the process conditions given at the time that the order was placed.

The EA software provides advanced configuration capabilities, including flow parameters such as AIChE fluid, meter tube bore, differential producer bore, and differential producer material

After bench configuration, the Mass ProBar may be bench calibrated. These procedures include absolute and differential pressure sensor offset (zero) and slope (span) trim.

For information concerning Mass ProBar bench configuration and bench calibration, see Section 10: Using the Mass ProBar Engineering Assistant Software.

WRITE PROTECT AND FAILURE MODE ALARM JUMPERS

Configuration data can be protected by moving the write-protect jumper which, when installed, prevents any changes to the Mass ProBar configuration memory.

The Mass ProBar is designed to automatically check its own operation at timed intervals. If the diagnostic routine detects a failure in the Mass ProBar, the Mass ProBar drives its output either below3.75 mA or above 21.75 mA, depending on the position of thefailure mode jumper.

Both of these jumpers are located on the electronics board just inside the electronics housing cover. (See Figure 9-1.) To avoid exposing the Mass ProBar electronics to the plant environment after installation,set these jumpers during the commissioning stage on the bench.

The Mass ProBar is shipped from the factory with the write-protect jumper set to “OFF,” and the alarm jumper set to “High.”

Mass ProBar Electronic Functions

FAILURE MODE ALARM VS. SATURATIONOUTPUT VALUES

The failure mode alarm output levels differ from the output values that occur when applied pressure is outside the range points. When pressure is outside the range points, the analog output continues to track the input pressure until reaching the saturation value listed below; the output does not exceed the listed saturation value regardless of the applied pressure. For example, for pressures outside the 4–20 range points, the output saturates at 3.9 mA or 20.8 mA. When the transmitter diagnostics detect a failure, the analog output is set to a specific alarm value that differs from the saturation value to allow for proper troubleshooting.

NOTEThe preceding output values can be altered by an analog output trim procedure.

Use the following steps to change the jumper settings:

1. If the transmitter is installed, secure the loop and remove power. 2. Remove the housing cover opposite the field terminal side. 3. Locate the jumper on the output electronics board (see Figure

9-1), then move the jumper to the desired setting. 4. Reattach the transmitter cover. To avoid condensation, metal to

metal contact is preferred. 5. If the transmitter is installed, reapply power.

or DP and Pressure compensated steam measurement (Saturated Steam Only)

NOTEDP, Pressure, and Temperature is the most common option. With this option, the Mass ProBar will compensate for both saturated and superheated steam.

NOTEDP and Pressure should be selected ONLY if the steam being measured is always saturated. With this option, the density of the saturated steam is based on the actual static pressure measurement. This option also requires that the Mass ProBar is set to fixed temperature mode.

With this option, saturated steam density is calculated based on ASME steam tables, and dynamic temperature compensation is not performed. If dynamic temperature compensation is desired, select the DP, Pressure, and Temperature option.

(Natural Gas Configuration)

Gross versus Detail Characterization The Engineering Assistant calculates the natural gas compressibility factor using either gross or detail characterization methods. Gross characterization is a simplified method that is acceptable for anarrow range of pressure, temperature, and gas composition.Detail characterization covers all pressure, temperature, and gas composition ranges for which A.G.A. computes compressibilityfactors. Table 10-4 identifies the acceptable ranges for both of these characterization methods.

NOTEA.G.A. Report No. 8 specifies that it is only valid for the gas phase. The Detail Characterization method allows water, n-Hexane, n-Heptane, n-Octone, n-Nonane, and n-Decane to be present up to the dew point. When entering these component values, be sure that these components have not reached their respective dew points.

10-37



Burst Mode

When the Mass ProBar is configured for burst mode, it provides faster digital communications from the transmitter to the control system by eliminating the time required for the control system to request information from the transmitter.

Burst mode is compatible with use of the analog signal. Because HART

protocol features simultaneous digital and analog data transmission, the analog value can drive other equipment in the loop while the control system is receiving the digital information. Burst mode applies only to the transmission of burst data (see Figure 10-25 on page 10-31), and does not affect the way other transmitter data is accessed.

Access to information other than burst data is obtained through the normal poll/response method of HART communication. The EA or the control system may request any of the information that is normally available while the transmitter is in burst mode. Between each burst message sent by the transmitter, a short pause allows the EA or control system to initiate a request. The transmitter will receive the request, process the response message, and then continue “bursting” the data approximately three times per second.

Burst mode is not compatible with multidropping more than one transmitter because there is no method to discriminate the data communications from multiple field devices.

11 Field Wiring and Electrical Considerations







• The unused conduit opening on the electronics housing must be plugged and sealed to meet explosion-proof requirements.



For explosion-proof installations, wiring connections must be made in accordance with Rosemount drawing 03095-1025 or 03095-1024.

For intrinsically safe installations, wiring connections must be made in accordance with ANSI/ISA-RP12.6, and Rosemount drawings 03095-1020 or 03095-1021.

For ALL installations, wiring connections must be made in accordance with local or national installation codes such as the NEC NFPA 70.


11-2

ELECTRICAL CONSIDERATIONS

The signal terminals are located in a compartment of the electronics housing separate from the electronics. Figure 11-1 illustrates power supply load limitations for the Mass ProBar.

Power Supply The dc power supply should provide power with less than 2% ripple. The total resistance load is the sum of the resistance of the signal leads and the load resistance of the controller, indicator, and related pieces. Note that the resistance of intrinsic safety barriers, if used, must be included.

NOTEA loop resistance between 250-1100 ohms inclusive is required to communicate with a personal computer. With 250 ohms of loop resistance, a power supply voltage of at least 16.5 V dc is required.(1)

If a single power supply is used to power more than one Mass ProBar, the power supply used, and circuitry common to the Mass ProBars, should not have more than 20 ohms of impedance at 1200 Hz.

FIGURE 11-1. Mass ProBar Power Supply Load Limitations.

Load LimitationsLoop resistance is determined by the voltage level of the external power supply, as described below:

HAZARDOUS LOCATIONS The Mass ProBar has an explosion-proof housing and circuitry suitable for intrinsically safe and non-incendive operation. Individual Mass ProBars are clearly marked with a tag indicating the certifications they carry. See Section 17: Specifications and Reference Data for specific approval categories.

Field Wiring and Electrical Considerations

FIELD INSTALLATION EQUIPMENT

The following equipment and tools are not provided with the Mass ProBar. Be sure to review this list before field wiring the Mass ProBar.

• Installation tools• Field wire between the power supply and the Mass ProBar• Barriers or seals required for hazardous locations• Power supply• Tie wraps

Field Wiring (Power and Signal)

Make field wiring connections (see Figure 11-2). These connections provide both power and signal wiring.

NOTES• Do not run field wiring in conduit or open trays with other power

wiring, or near heavy electrical equipment.• Field wiring need not be shielded, but twisted pairs provide the

best results.• To ensure communication, wiring should be 24 AWG or larger and

less than 5,000 feet (1,500 meters) in length.• For connections in ambient temperatures above 140 °F (60 °C),

use wiring rated for at least 194 °F (90 °C).• Incorrect field wiring connections may damage the Mass ProBar

electronics. Do not connect field wiring to the “TEST +” terminals.



11-4

1. Remove the cover on the side marked FIELD TERMINALS on the electronics housing.

2. Connect the lead that originates at the positive side of the power supply to the terminal marked “+ SIG.” Be sure to include loop resistance.

3. Connect the lead that originates at the negative side of the power supply to the terminal marked “-.”

4. Plug and seal unused conduit connections on the electronics housing to avoid moisture accumulation in the terminal side of the housing.

NOTEIf the conduit connections are not sealed, mount the electronics with the electrical housing positioned downward to drainage. Conduit should be installed with a drip loop, and the bottom of the drip loop should be lower than the conduit connections or the electronics housing.

Field Wiring and Electrical Considerations

Install Electrical Grounds Install field wiring ground (optional), and ground the electronics case (required).

Field Wiring Ground 1. Field wiring may be grounded at any one point on the signal loop, or it may be left ungrounded. The negative terminal of the power supply is a recommended grounding point.

Ground the Electronics Case 2. The electronics case should always be grounded in accordance with national and local electrical codes. The most effective electronics case grounding method is a direct connection to the earth ground with minimal impedance. Methods for grounding the electronics case include:Internal Ground Connection: Inside the FIELD TERMINALS side of the electronics housing is the Internal Ground Connection screw. This screw is identified by a ground symbol: .

NOTEThe transient protection terminal block does not provide transient protection unless the electronics case is properly grounded. Use the above guidelines to ground the electronics case.

Do not run the transient protection ground wire with field wiring as the ground wire may carry excessive current if a lightening strike occurs.

Grounding the electronics case using a threaded conduit connection may not provide sufficient ground.

3. Replace the cover.

Commissioning is the process of testing the Mass ProBar to ensure that it operates accurately and safely.

This section provides instructions for commissioning remote mounted Mass ProBar models in horizontal or vertical pipes.

NOTEThe commissioning process differs between direct mounted and remote mounted Mass ProBar models. See Section 12: Direct Mount Mass ProBar Commissioning for instructions.









If the process fluid is caustic or otherwise hazardous, the procedure outlined here must be modified as required to prevent death or serious injury to personnel.

If the line is pressurized, serious injury or death could occur by opening valves.

COMMISSIONING REMOTE MOUNTED FLOWMETERS

This section contains four procedures to follow in preparation for commissioning a remote mounted Mass ProBar:

1. Identify the location and purpose of manifold valves.2. Zero the electronics.3. Check for system leaks.4. Perform a zero calibration.

Mass ProBar Valve Identification

Before beginning the Mass ProBar commissioning process, you should become familiar with the location and purpose of the various valves involved. Figure 13-1 identifies the location of valves for both 5-valve and 3-valve manifolds, and Table 13-1 identifies the purpose of those valves.

Remote Mount Mass ProBar Commissioning

Zero the Electronics Before the Mass ProBar electronics are exposed to line pressure, check the “zero” calibration (or, “dry” zero) by using the following procedure.

1. Open first the equalizer valve(s) MEL and MEH or ME.2. Close valves MH and ML.3. Read the Mass ProBar output. It should read within the range 3.98

mA to 4.02 mA. If the output is outside of this range, trim zero as described in Section 9: Mass ProBar Electronic Functions.

Check for System Leaks Check the system for leaks after installation is complete. A leak in a differential pressure instrument system can produce a difference in pressure that is larger than the signal itself.

Before the system is filled and/or commissioned, it is a simple matter to use compressed air or another inert, compressed gas to check for leaks. The gas pressure must be below the maximum allowed, but at least equal to the normal operating pressure in order to reveal potential leaks. A typical pressure used is 100 psig (690 kPa).

Before pressurizing the system, check for leaks by doing the following:

1. Open equalizer valve(s) MEH, MEL or ME to prevent overpressuring the DP.

2. Close valves PH, PL (unless the piping system is also being pressure-checked), MV, DVH, DVL.• If present, also close valves BH and BL or DH and DL.

3. Open valves MH and ML.4. Install all appropriate tapped plugs.5. Install a current meter to read the signal, if necessary.

Apply pressure at a convenient point on either the high or low side of the system. Use a suitable leak detection solution and apply to all of the impulse piping, valves, manifold, and connections. A leak is indicated by a continuous stream of bubbles.

5-Valve ManifoldsIf a 5-valve manifold is installed, the equalizer valves can be tested by performing the following procedure after system leaks are repaired and the system is stable.

1. Close equalizer valves MEH and MEL.2. Open vent valve MV. There should be no leakage from the

manifold vent.3. Close vent valve MV.4. Open equalizer valves MEH and MEL.5. Bleed off the air and remove the source fitting. 6. Return the system to the original configuration. Use extreme

care when bleeding high temperature fluids. Bleed piping may need to be installed.


13-4

“Calibrate Out” Temperature Effects

NOTEDo not begin this procedure until the system leak check has been completed and all leaks have been fixed.

The Mass ProBar’s proportional output-to-flow ratio makes a true “zero” calibration critical for producing accurate measurements. The “zero” calibration procedure is affected by static pressure and ambient temperature, but these effects can be removed by calibrating them “out.”

The effect of static pressure is calibrated out by exposing the Mass ProBar electronics to the line pressure and performing a “zero” or wet calibration, as described below. In order to calibrate out the effect of ambient temperature, two aspects should be taken into consideration:

1. The electronics should be located in a place where the ambient temperature does not change rapidly or vary by more than 10 to 15 °F (26 to 29 °C).

2. When commissioning the electronics, the flowing fluid (condensate/water for steam service) could bring the sensor to a temperature significantly different than the temperature during normal operations. In this situation, perform another “zero” calibration at least 60 minutes after the Mass ProBar has been commissioned. The sensor temperature can be monitored using a HART-based communicator, as described in the Wet Calibration section below.

Although the above effects are relatively small, they significantly affect the accuracy of the Mass ProBar when used with low flows.

Periodic “zero” calibration and/or commissioning is recommended to maintain the accuracy of Mass ProBar. The frequency of this type of maintenance should be established for each individual application.

Zero or Wet Calibration Follow this procedure to obtain a true zero at static or “pipe” pressure:

1. Open equalizer valves:• For 5-valve manifolds, open valves MEH and MEL• For 3-valve manifolds, open valves ME and high side MH

2. Close low side valve ML to prevent generating differential pressure.

13-5


COMMISSIONING Complete the following tasks before beginning thecommissioning procedure:

1. Power the Mass ProBar, if required.2. Connect an appropriate readout instrument so the differential

pressure signal can be monitored.3. Identify the manifold equalizer valves by their ME prefix.

• 5-valve manifolds have two equalizer valves, MEH and MEL.• 3-valve manifolds have one equalizer valve, ME.

4. Close all valves before commissioning the system. See Figures 8-8 through 8-14 for valve identification while following the procedures given below.

Liquid Service below 250 °F (121 °C)

Refer to Figures 8-9 and 8-10 for electronics location and valve identification for liquid service at temperatures of 250 °F (121 °C) or less. See page 13-7 to commission a remote mounted Mass ProBar for liquid service above 250 °F (121 °C).

1. Ensure that primary instrument valves PH and PL are closed. 2. Open valves ME, ML, and MH.

• For 5-valve manifolds, open valves MEH and MEL.3. Slowly open valve PL and then PH, which are the primary

instrument valves.4. Open drain/vent valves DVL and DVH to bleed air out of system.

Bleed until no air is apparent in the liquid. 5. Close valves DVL and DVH.

NOTEFor the alternate electronics location shown in Figure 8-10, open vent valves VH and VL and bleed until no air is apparent in the liquid.

6. Slowly open vent valve MV to bleed out any entrapped air in manifold. Bleed until no air is apparent in the liquid.

7. Close vent valve MV.8. Gently tap the electronics body, valve manifold, and impulse

piping with a small wrench to dislodge any remaining entrapped air.

9. Repeat steps 2, 2A, and 3.10. Close valve PH.11. Check the Mass ProBar zero by noting the electronics output —

this is called a wet zero. The electronics should indicate a zero DP (Differential Pressure) signal. If the signal reads outside the range 3.98 mA to 4.02 mA, air is probably still in the system; repeat the procedure from step 2. Trim zero if necessary.

12. Close equalizer valve(s).• For 3-valve manifolds, close valve ME.• For 5-valve manifolds, close valves MEH and MEL.

13. Slowly open valve PH. The system is now operational.For 5-valve manifolds only:

14. Open valve MV. If valve MV is leaking, valves MEH and/or MEL are not fully closed or require repair. This must be done before taking any readings.


13-6

Gas Service Follow this procedure for commissioning a remote mounted Mass ProBar for gas service. Refer to Figures 8-11 and 8-12 for electronics location and valve identification.

1. For an impulse piping arrangement as shown in Figure 8-11 (vertical pipe) only, open primary instrument valves PH and PL.

2. Open drain valves DH and DL slowly to allow the condensate to drain.

3. Close valves DH and DL.4. Ensure that primary instrument valves PH and PL closed.5. Open valves ME, ML and MH.

• For 5-valve manifolds, open valves MEH and MEL.6. Slowly open valve PL, the primary high pressure instrument valve.7. Check electronics zero by noting the electronics reading. The

electronics should indicate a “zero” DP signal. If the signal reads outside of the range 3.98 mA to 4.02 mA, condensate may be in the DP electronics or system; repeat the procedure from step 1 to remove any condensate. A signal outside the range 3.98 mA to 4.02 mA can also be caused by system leaks; check for leaks in system.

8. Close equalizer valve(s).• For 3-valve manifolds, close valve ME.• For 5-valve manifolds, close valves MEH and MEL.

9. Slowly open valve PH. The system is now operational.For 5-valve manifolds only:

10. Open valve MV. If valve MV is leaking, valves MEH and/or MEL are not fully closed or require repair. This must be done before taking any readings.

Steam Service or Liquid Service above 250 °F (121 °C)

Follow this procedure for commissioning a remote mounted Mass ProBar for steam service or for liquid service at a temperature above 250 °F (121 °C). Refer to Figures 8-13 and 8-14 for electronics location and valve identification.

1. Ensure that primary instrument valves PH and PL closed; ME, ML and MH are closed; and DVL and DVH are closed.• For 5-valve manifolds, ensure that valves MEH and MEL

are closed.2. Fill tees with water on each side until water overflows.3. Open valves MH, ML and equalizer valve ME.

• For 5-valve manifolds, open equalizer valves MEH and MEL.4. Open valves DVL and DVH.5. Tap manifold until no air bubbles are visible.6. Close both valves DVL and DVH.7. Refill tees with water.8. Gently tap electronics body, valve manifold, and impulse piping

with a small wrench to dislodge any remaining entrapped air.9. Check Mass ProBar zero by noting the electronics output — this

is called a wet zero. The electronics should indicate a “zero” DP signal. If the signal reads outside of the range 3.98 mA to 4.02 mA, air is probably still in the system; repeat this procedure from step 2. Trim zero if necessary.

10. Close equalizer valve ME.• For 5-valve manifolds, close equalizer valves MEH and MEL.

11. Replace plugs in tees.12. Slowly open valves PH and PL. The system is now operational.

For 5-valve manifolds only:13. Open valve MV. If valve MV is leaking, valves MEH and/or MEL

RTD Maintenance

Replacing a Direct Mount RTD

If an RTD needs to be replaced on a direct mounted Mass ProBar, proceed as follows:

1. Close instrument valves to ensure that the pressure is disconnected from the transmitter.

2. Open the bleed valves on the transmitter to remove all pressure.3. Remove the cap and the RTD wiring only from the terminal. See

Figure Figure 15-1 and Figure 15-2.4. Remove the RTD cable as follows:

a. Unscrew the cable adapter.b. Remove the black cable connector.c. Unscrew the cap from the compression fitting.d. Remove the cable.

5. Remove the hex nuts.6. Remove the transmitter.7. Remove the ½–14 NPT plug.8. Pull the RTD wire out of the nipple and remove the RTD. The

RTD is in a thermowell, so no live line pressure will be present.9. Install the new RTD and thread the wires through the nipple.

10. Reinstall the 1/2-in. NPT plug.11. Use the same teflon gaskets to reinstall the transmitter to the

Mass ProBar sensor head. 12. Use a torque wrench to tighten the stainless steel hex nuts in a

cross pattern to 300 in-lbs (650 in-lbs for carbon steel hex nuts).13. Reconnect the RTD wires to the terminal. This diagram is for a

typical RTD transmitter wiring connection.14. Refasten the transmitter hex nut to the transmitter and tighten.15. Open the instrument valves.

Replacing a Remote Mount RTD

If an RTD needs to be replaced on a remote mounted Mass ProBar, proceed as follows:

1. Close instrument valves to ensure that the pressure is disconnected from the transmitter.

2. Open the bleed valves on the transmitter to remove all pressure.3. Remove the cap.4. Remove the RTD wiring only from the terminal.5. Remove the Terminal Housing from the Mass ProBar head.6. Pull the RTD wire out of the nipple and remove the RTD. The

RTD is in a thermowell, so no live line pressure will be present.

16 Troubleshooting and Maintenance

This section describes troubleshooting and maintenance tasks associated with the Mass Probar. These include Mass Probar electronics maintenance procedures, and field replaceable part procedures.

MASS PROBARTROUBLESHOOTING

If a malfunction is suspected, follow the procedures described here to verify that transmitter hardware and process connections are in good working order. Under each major symptom, specific suggestions are offered for solving the problem. Always deal with the most likely and easiest-to-check conditions first.

COMMUNICATION PROBLEMS

Table 5-1 identifies the most likely causes for communication problems between the Engineering Assistant (EA) software and the Mass Probar.

TABLE 16-1. Transmitter Does not Communicate with the Mass Probar EA Software.

Use only the procedures and new parts specifically referenced in this manual. Unauthorized procedures or parts can affect product performance and the output signal used to control a process, and may render the instrument dangerous. Direct any questions concerning these procedures or parts to Rosemount Inc.


No Communication between the EA Software and the Mass Probar

LOOP WIRING • HART protocol communication requires a loop resistance

value between 250–1100 ohms, inclusive.• Check for adequate voltage to the transmitter. (If the computer

is connected and 250 ohms resistance is properly in the loop, a power supply voltage of at least 16.5 V dc is required.)


• Check for capacitance across the load resistor. Capacitance should be less than 0.1 microfarad.

EA INSTALLATION • Verify that the install program modified the CONFIG.SYS file. • Verify computer reboot followed EA installation. • Verify correct COMM port selected (see page 4-2). • Verify laptop computer is not in low energy mode

(certain laptops disable all COMM ports in low energy mode). • Did you install EA software onto Windows NT platform? • Check if HART driver is loaded and installed.


16-2

INTERPRETING MASS PROBAR ALARMS AND ERROR CONDITIONS

The Mass Probar provides both analog and digital alarms. If an alarm or error condition exists in the Mass Probar, it will be displayed during the EA communication with the transmitter. Some non-flow error conditions may take up to 2 seconds to display, while some flow error conditions may take up to 10 seconds to display. View specific alarm conditions using the EA software (see page 4-35).

Table 5-2 explains critical alarms, Table 5-3 lists overrange conditions, Table 5-5 lists flow exceptions, and Table 5-6 identifies sensor limits.

NOTEAlarms are not logged or archived. The alarms and error conditions displayed on the Diagnostics, Error Info screen indicate the alarms present at the time of command invocation.

Critical Alarms Critical alarms are the highest priority Mass Probar alarms, and typically indicate an error that prevents accurate sensor or flow measurements. Regardless of which of these alarms occur, the analog output and the digital output respond as indicated in Table 5-2.

Overrange Conditions Overrange conditions typically indicate an error which indicates that the sensor or flow measurements have reached an overrange condition where substitute values are being used.

Table 5-3 identifies actions to the analog output and digital output during these conditions. Blank table cells indicate no action for that condition. Table 5-4 identifies recommended corrective action, and also identifies affects on the flow calculation during these conditions.

The following performance limitations may inhibit efficient or safe operation. Critical applications should have appropriate diagnostic and backup systems in place.

Pressure transmitters contain an internal fill fluid. It is used to transmit the process pressure through the isolating diaphragms to the pressure sensing element. In rare cases, oil loss paths in oil-filled pressure transmitters can be created. Possible causes include: physical damage to the isolator diaphragms, process fluid freezing, isolator corrosion due to an incompatible process fluid, etc.

A transmitter with oil fill fluid loss may continue to perform normally for a period of time. Sustained oil loss will eventually cause one or more of the operating parameters to exceed published specifications while a small drift in operating point output continues. Symptoms of advanced oil loss and other unrelated problems include:

• Sustained drift rate in true zero and span or operating point output or both

• Sluggish response to increasing or decreasing pressure or both

• Limited output rate or very nonlinear output or both• Change in output process noise• Noticeable drift in operating point output• Abrupt increase in drift rate of true zero or span or both• Unstable output• Output saturated high or low.

DISASSEMBLY PROCEDURES

Read the following information carefully before disassembling a transmitter. General information concerning the process sensor body and electrical housing follow. Figure 2-3 on page 2-3 shows an exploded view of the transmitter.

Process Sensor Body NOTEDo not leave transmitters in service once they have been determined to be inoperable.

Be aware of the following:

• The process flange can be detached by removing the four flange bolts and the two alignment screws that secure it.

• Isolating diaphragms can be cleaned with a soft rag, mild cleaning solution, and clear water rinse.

• The flange adapters and process flange can be rotated or reversed for mounting convenience.

• When removing the process flange or flange adapters, visually inspect the Teflon O-rings. Replace the O-rings if they show any signs of damage, such as nicks or cuts. If they are undamaged, they can be reused.

• If the teflon sensor module O-rings have been replaced, re-torque the flange bolts after installation to compensate for cold flow.

Explosions can result in death or serious injury. Do not remove the instrument cover in explosive environments.

Process should be isolated from the transmitter and vented before the transmitter is removed from service for disassembly.

To prevent damage which may lead to inaccurate measurements, do not scratch, puncture, or depress the isolating diaphragms.

To prevent damage which may lead to inaccurate measurements, do not use any chlorine or acid solutions to clean the diaphragms.

16-11


Electrical Housing Electrical connections are located in a compartment identified as FIELD TERMINALS on the electronics housing. Unscrew the cover on the Field Terminal side to access the signal terminal block.

Remove the signal terminal block by loosening the two small screws located at the 9 o’clock and 4 o’clock positions, then pulling the terminal block straight out to disconnect the block from the post connectors.

Remove the Electronics Board

The transmitter electronics are located behind the cover opposite the terminal side.

1. Remove the housing cover opposite the field terminal side.2. Loosen the two captive screws that anchor the board.

3. Slowly pull the electronics board out of the housing. With the two captive screws free of the transmitter housing, only the sensor module ribbon cable holds the module to the housing.

4. Disconnect the sensor module ribbon cable to release the electronics board from the transmitter.

5. Carefully tuck the cable connector completely inside the internal shroud. The shroud protects the cable from damage that might occur when the housing is rotated.

To prevent damage to the circuit board, remove power from the transmitter before removing the electronics cover.

Explosions can result in death or serious injury. Do not remove the instrument cover in explosive environments.

The circuit board is electrostatically sensitive. To prevent damage to the circuit board, be sure to observe handling precautions for static-sensitive components.

Do not remove the housing until the cable connector has been completely tucked inside the internal shroud. Damage to the sensor module ribbon cable may occur if the connector does not rotate with the sensor module.


16-12

Remove the Sensor Module from the Electronics Housing

6. Loosen the housing rotation set screw with a 5/64-inch hex wrench and back off one full turn.

7. Unscrew the housing from the module, making sure the shroud and sensor cable do not catch on the housing. Damage can occur to the cable if the internal shroud and sensor cable rotate with the housing. Carefully pull the shroud and sensor ribbon cable assembly through the housing opening.

The sensing module is a complete assembly and cannot be further disassembled.

Do not remove the housing until after you tuck the cable connector completely inside of the internal shroud. The shroud protects the cable from damage that can occur when you rotate the housing.

Before removing the sensor module from the electrical housing, disconnect the electronics board power cable from the sensor module. This will prevent damage to the sensor module ribbon cable.

If the Coplanar flange has been removed, take care not to damage the isolating diaphragm after disassembly. Damage to the isolating diaphragm may lead to inaccurate measurements.

16-13


REASSEMBLY PROCEDURES

Follow these procedures carefully to ensure proper reassembly:

Attach the Sensor Module to the Electronics Housing

1. Inspect all cover and housing (non-process-wetted) O-rings and replace if necessary. Lightly lubricate with silicone to ensure a good seal.

2. Carefully tuck the cable connector completely inside the internal shroud. To do this, turn the shroud and cable counterclockwise one rotation to tighten the cable.

3. Lower the electronics housing onto the module, and guide the internal shroud and cable through the housing and into the external shroud.

4. Fasten the housing to the module by turning clockwise.

5. Inspect the threaded connections.

6. Tighten the housing rotation set screw.

Attach the Electronics Board

1. Remove the cable connector from its position inside the internal shroud, and attach the cable to the electronics board.

2. Align the post-receptacle connectors with the posts inside the electronics housing.

NOTEIf the post-receptacle connectors have a black rubber sleeve over them, the sleeve must be removed before installing a new electronics board. Gently grasp the sleeve between thumb and forefinger and slide it off of the connector. Discard sleeve.

3. Insert the electronics board into the housing and tighten the captive mounting screws.

4. Replace the electronics housing cover. Metal-to-metal contact is preferred.

To prevent damage to the cable connector, watch the cable and shroud as you attach the housing to the module. Make sure the cable connector does not slip out of the internal shroud and begin to rotate with the housing. Reinsert the cable connector into the shroud if it escapes before the housing is fully fastened.

Explosions can result in death or serious injury. The bottom of the electronic housing must be within 1/16-in. of the sensor module to maintain explosion-proof requirements.

Explosions can cause death or serious injury. Both transmitter covers must be fully engaged to meet explosion-proof requirements.


16-14

Reassemble the Process Sensor Body

1. Visually inspect the Teflon sensor module O-rings. • If the O-rings are undamaged, they can be re-used. • If the O-rings show signs of damage, such as nicks or cuts, or if

there is any doubt about their sealing ability, replace them with new O-rings. Use the following steps:a. Remove the damaged O-rings by carefully prying them from

the O-ring grooves. Take care not to damage the surface of the isolating diaphragm during this process.

b. Replace the damaged O-rings by fitting new O-rings into the O-ring grooves.

2. Install the process flange on the sensor module. To hold the process flange in place, install the two hex head alignment screws. These screws are not pressure retaining and need only be finger tight. Do not overtighten; this will affect the module/flange alignment.

3. Install the appropriate flange bolts:• For installations requiring a 1/4–18 NPT mounting, install the four

1.75-inch process flange bolts. First finger-tighten the bolts. Then tighten the bolts incrementally in a cross pattern until they are securely tightened to 650 in-lb (300 in-lb for stainless steel bolts). After tightening, the bolts should protrude through the top of the module housing.

• For installations requiring a 1/2–14 NPT mounting, hold the optional flange adapters and flange adapter O-rings in place while finger-tightening the four 2.88-inch process flange/adapter bolts. Tighten the bolts in a cross pattern following the procedure outlined above. (Use two 2.88- inch bolts and two 1.75-inch bolts for gage pressure configurations.) After tightening, the bolts should protrude through the top of the module housing. If the bolts do not extend all the way through the module housing, you have used a bolt of incorrect length. Replace the bolt with one of the correct length, and repeat the procedure.

• For installations with a three-valve manifold, align the process flange with the three-valve manifold. Install the four 2.25-inch manifold flange bolts following the procedure outlined above. After tightening, the bolts should protrude through the top of the module housing. If the bolts do not extend all the way through the module housing, you have used a bolt of incorrect length. Replace the bolt with one of the correct length, and repeat the procedure. Optional flange adapters can be installed on the process end of the three-valve manifold using the 1.75-inch flange bolts supplied with the transmitter.

4. If the Teflon sensor module O-rings have been replaced, the flange bolts should be re-torqued after installation to compensate for cold flow.

5. Follow these steps to install the drain/vent valve:• Apply sealing tape to the threads on the seat. Starting at the base

of the valve with the threaded end pointing toward the installer, apply two clockwise turns of the sealing tape.

• Take care to orient the opening on the valve so that process fluid will drain toward the ground and away from personnel when the valve is opened.

• Tighten the drain/vent valve to 250 in-lb.

Static Pressure Sensor is Shorted The sensor module has undergone a component or software failure. Replace the sensor module as described on page 5-10. Contact your Field Service Center.

Static Pressure Sensor is Open This display means that the transmitter absolute pressure reading exceeds its sensor limits. There are two possible causes. Either the transmitter is overpressured, or it has a sensor malfunction. Check the pressure input to the transmitter. If an overpressure condition exists, correct it. If not, replace the sensor module as described on page 5-10.

Process Temp Sensor is Disconnected (5) Check the transmitter RTD connector and RTD screw terminals to ensure the RTD cable is properly connected.

Configuration incomplete (1) Connect a computer containing the EA software, and resend the configuration to the transmitter.

(1) For Version 4 software, the analog output does not alarm and the digital output is not set to NAN. Error info (page 4-35) does report this error.(2) For Version 4 software, the analog output does not alarm, but the digital output is set to NAN. (3) NAN indicates “Not a Number.” Distributed Control Systems and HART masters will read “7F A0 00 00h.” (4) For Version 4 software, this message is followed by 5 additional non-related errors. The analog output and digital output alarm as designed.(5) This alarm cannot occur if a transmitter is set to fixed RTD mode.

CONNECTIONS AND HARDWARE

The HART Communicator Model 275 can interface with a transmitter from the control room, the instrument site, or any wiring termination point in the loop through the rear connection panel as shown in Figure A-2. To communicate, connect the HART Communicator in parallel with the instrument or load resistor. The connections are non-polarized.

FIGURE A-2. Rear Connection Panel with Optional NiCad Recharger Pack.

NOTEThe HART Communicator needs a minimum of 250 ohms resistance in the loop to function properly. The HART Communicator does not measure loop current directly.

Explosions can result in death or serious injury. Do not make connections to the serial port or NiCad recharger jack in an explosive atmosphere.

Explosions can result in death or serious injury. Before connecting the HART Communicator in an explosive atmosphere, make sure the instruments in the loop are installed in accordance with intrinsically safe or nonincendive field wiring practices.

COMMUNICATOR KEYS The keys of the HART Commuincator include action, function, alphanumeric, and shift keys

FIGURE A-4. The HART Communicator.

Action Keys As shown in Figure A-4, the action keys are the six blue, white, and black keys located above the alphanumeric keys. The function of each key is described as follows:

ON/OFF Key Use this key to power the HART Communicator. When the communicator is turned on, it searches for a transmitter on the 4–20 mA loop. If a device is not found, the communicator displays the message, “No Device Found. Press OK.”

If a HART-compatible device is found, the communicator displays the Online Menu with device ID and tag.

Directional Keys Use these keys to move the cursor up, down, left, or right. The right arrow key also selects menu options, and the left arrow key returns to the previous menu.

HOT KeyUse this key to quickly access important, user-selectable options whenconnected to a HART-compatible device. Pressing the Hot Key turnsthe HART Communicator on and displays the Hot Key Menu. See Customizing the Hot Key Menu in the HART Communicator manual for more information.

Appendix A

Function Keys Use the four software-defined function keys, located below the LCD, to perform software functions. On any given menu, the label appearing above a function key indicates the function of that key for the current menu. As you move among menus, different function key labels appear over the four keys. For example, in menus providing access to on-line help, the label may appear above the F1 key. In menus providing access to the Online Menu, the label may appear above the F3 key. Simply press the key to activate the function. See your HART Communicator manual for details on specific function key definitions.

Alphanumeric and Shift Keys The alphanumeric keys (Figure A-5) perform two functions: the fast selection of menu options and data entry.

FIGURE A-5. HART Communicator Alphanumeric and Shift Keys.

Data EntrySome menus require data entry. Use the alphanumeric and shift keys to enter all alphanumeric information into the HART Communicator. If you press an alphanumeric key alone from within an edit menu, the bold character in the center of the key appears. These large characters include the numbers zero through nine, the decimal point (.), and the dash symbol (—).

To enter an alphabetic character, first press the shift key that corresponds to the position of the letter you want on the alphanumeric key. Then press the alphanumeric key. For example, to enter the letter R, first press the right shift key, then the “6” key (see Figure A-6). Do not press these keys simultaneously, but one after the other.

Fast Key Sequences HART fast key sequences provide quick on-line access to transmitter variables and functions. Instead of stepping your way through the menu structure using the action keys, you can press a HART fast key sequence to move from the Online Menu to the desired variable or function. On-screen instructions guide you through the rest of the screens.

Fast Key Sequence Conventions The fast key sequences for the Model 275 use the following conventions for their identification:

1 through 9–Refer to the keys located directly below the dedicated keypad.Left Arrow–Refers to the left arrow directional key.

Fast Key Sequence Example HART fast key sequences are made up of the series of numbers corresponding to the individual options in each step of the menu structure. For example, from the Online Menu you can change the Date. Following the menu structure, press 1 to reach Device Setup, press 3 for Basic Setup, press 4 for Device Info, press 4 for Date. The corresponding HART fast key sequence is 1, 3, 4, 4.

HART fast keys are operational only from the Online Menu. If you use them consistently, you will need to return to the Online Menu by pressing (F3) when it is available. If you do not start at the Online Menu, the HART fast key sequences will not function properly.

Use Table A-2, an alphabetical listing of every on-line function, to find the corresponding HART fast key sequences. These codes are applicable only to Level Controller and the HART Communicator.

MENUS AND FUNCTIONS The HART Communicator is a menu driven system. Each screen provides a menu of options that can be selected as outlined above, or provides direction for input of data, warnings, messages, or other instructions.

Main Menu When the HART Communicator is turned on, one of two menus will appear. If the HART Communicator is connected to an operating loop, the communicator will find the device and display the Online Menu (see below). If it is not connected to a loop, the communicator will indicate that no device was found. When you press OK (F4), it will display the Main menu.

The Main menu provides the following options:

• Offline–The Offline option provides access to offline configuration data and simulation functions.

• Online–The Online option checks for a device and if it finds one, brings up the Online Menu.

• Transfer–The Transfer option provides access to options for transferring data either from the HART Communicator (memory) to the transmitter (device) or vice versa. Transfer is used to move off-line data from the HART Communicator to the transmitter, or to retrieve data from a transmitter for off-line revision.

NOTEOnline communication with the transmitter automatically loads the current transmitter data to the HART Communicator. Changes in on-line data are made active by pressing SEND (F2). The transfer function is used only for off-line data retrieval and sending.

HOME

A-9

Appendix A

• Frequency Device–The Frequency Device option displays the frequency output and corresponding pressure output of current-to-pressure transmitters.

• Utility–The Utility option provides access to the contrast control for the HART Communicator LCD screen and to the autopoll setting used in multidrop applications.

Once selecting a Main menu option, the HART Communicator provides the information you need to complete the operation. If further details are required, consult the HART Communicator manual.

Online Menu The Online Menu can be selected from the Main menu as outlined above, or it may appear automatically if the HART Communicator is connected to an active loop and can detect an operating transmitter.

NOTEThe Main menu can be accessed from the Online Menu. Press the left arrow action key to deactivate the on-line communication with the transmitter and to activate the Main menu options.

When configuration variables are reset in the on-line mode, the new settings are not activated until the information is sent to the transmitter. Press SEND (F2) when it is activated to update the process variables of the transmitter.

On-line mode is used for direct evaluation of a particular meter, re-configuration, changing parameters, maintenance, and other functions.
