Bristol® ControlWave® XFC
Explosion-proof Flow Computer Integrates
Automation and Measurement
Features
For users who expect more from their ow computers than simply chart replacement functionality,
Bristol® ControlWave® XFC, from Emerson Process
Management, comes through with synergy of automation and measurement. Now, you can install a single
instrument without the hassles you face when you try
to use separate equipment for automation and measurement operations at remote sites.
The ControlWave XFC package features the following:
ControlWave family platform that is pre-pro-
•
grammed to meet API 21.1 requirements for a
two-run metering and regulating station
High performance, smart multivariable transducer
•
assembly is a separate component that can be removed and replaced independently of the electronics platform
Optional, pre-installed RTD assembly
•
Extremely low power consumption keeps power
•
systems costs under control
Open communication with 3 serial ports stan-
•
dard—includes modem/radio control and RS 485
BSAP/Modbus for external, single- or multi-variable
transmitters such as the Bristol Babcock 3808 MVT
I/O complements with up to 3 AI, 1 AO, 2 DI, 2
•
High-speed Counter Inputs and 4 DO interface with
external, process equipment
Unlike a ow computer, ControlWave XFC employs
a hardware/rmware platform that readily handles
automation tasks:
Ample processing horsepower and memory
•
subsystem means that users need not worry about
running out of resources for demanding applications.
ControlWave XFC provides automation and ow
computing in a compact, transmitter-style hous-
ing that is quickly installed and started-up.
Multitasking kernel securely manages multiple
•
automation, communication and measurement
operations.
For users wishing to write their own programs, or
•
modify ours, we offer a complete, IEC 61131-3
programming environment and full support from
Emerson Process management is available, every
step of the way.
After more than 90 years in process control and 115
years in measurement, Emerson remains committed to
delivering superior life cycle economics to automation
and measurement systems, today and tomorrow. We
are proud to offer ControlWave XFC, a product that
stands up to the tradition.
