On receipt of the goods, check the following points:
• Check the packaging and the contents for damage.
• Check the shipment, make sure nothing is missing and that the scope of supply matches your
order.
3.1.2Transport
Please note the following when unpacking or transporting to the measuring point:
• The devices must be transported in the container supplied.
• The covers or caps fitted to the process connections prevent mechanical damage to the sealing
faces and the ingress of foreign matter to the measuring tube during transportation and storage.
Consequently, do not remove these covers or caps until immediately before installation.
• Devices with nominal diameters > DN 40 (> 1½") may not be lifted at the transmitter housing or
at the connection housing of the remote version when transporting. Use carrier slings when
transporting and put the slings around both process connections. Avoid chains as these could
damage the housing.
#
Warning!
Risk of injury if the measuring device slips. The center of gravity of the entire measuring device
might be higher than the points around which the slings are slung.
Therefore, when transporting, make sure that the device does not unintentionally turn or slip.
a0005765
Fig. 4: Instructions for transporting sensors with a nominal diameter > DN 40 (> 1½")
3.1.3Storage
Note the following points:
• Pack the measuring device in such a way as to protect it reliably against impact for storage (and
transportation). The original packaging provides optimum protection.
• The permissible storage temperature is –40 to +80 °C (–40 °F to 176 °F),
preferably +20 °C (68 °F).
• Do not remove the protective covers or caps on the process connections until you are ready to
install the device.
• The measuring device must be protected against direct sunlight during storage in order to avoid
unacceptably high surface temperatures.

3.2Installation conditions
Note the following points:
• No special measures such as supports are necessary. External forces are absorbed by the
construction of the instrument.
• The flowmeter flanges must be coplanar with connecting flanges and free from tension.
• The maximum permitted ambient temperatures (→ ä 63) and fluid temperatures (→ ä 63)
must be observed.
• Pay particular attention to the notes on orientation and piping insulation on the following pages.
• The correct operation of the measuring system is not influenced by pipe vibrations.
3.2.1Dimensions
All the dimensions and lengths of the sensor and transmitter are provided in the separate
documentation "Technical Information". → ä 67
3.2.2Mounting location
Accumulated gas bubbles in the measuring tube can result in measuring errors.
Avoid the following locations:
• Highest point of a pipeline. Risk of gas accumulating.
• Directly upstream of a free pipe outlet in a vertical pipeline.
a0006081
Fig. 5: Mounting location
The proposed configuration in the following diagram, however, permits installation in a vertical
pipeline. Pipe restrictors or the use of an orifice plate with a smaller cross section than the nominal
diameter prevent the sensor from running empty during measurement.
Fig. 6: Installation in a vertical pipe (e.g. for batching applications)
No additional pressure loss results from installing the device. It is important to ensure that cavitation
or degassing does not occur at fittings upstream from the measuring device as this can affect sound
transmission in the fluid.
No special measures need to be taken for fluids which have properties similar to water under normal
conditions.
In the case of liquids with a low boiling point (hydrocarbons, solvents, liquefied gases) or in suction
lines, it is important to ensure that pressure does not drop below the vapor pressure and that the
liquid does not start to boil. It is also important to ensure that the gases that occur naturally in many
liquids do not outgas. Such effects can be prevented when system pressure is sufficiently high.
For this reason, preference should be given to the following mounting locations:
• Downstream from pumps (no danger of vacuum)
• At the lowest point in a vertical pipe
3.2.3Orientation
Make sure that the direction of the arrow on the nameplate of the sensor matches the direction of
flow (direction in which the fluid flows through the pipe).
Fig. 7: Orientations A, B and C recommended, orientation D only recommended under certain circumstances
3.2.4Heating
Some fluids require heat to be transfered at the sensor. Heating can be electric, e.g. with heated
elements, or by hot water or steam.
Caution!
"
• Danger of electronics overheating!
Make sure that the adapter between the sensor and transmitter and the connection housing of
the remote version always remain free of insulating material.
• When using electrical heat tracing whose heat is regulated using phase control or by pulse packs,
it cannot be ruled out that the measured values are influenced by magnetic fields which may
occur, (i.e. at values greater than those permitted by the EC standard (Sinus 30 A/m)). In such
cases, the sensor must be magnetically shielded.

3.2.5Thermal insulation
Some fluids require suitable measures to avoid loss of heat at the sensor. A wide range of materials
can be used to provide the required thermal insulation.
a0005763-ae
Fig. 8: A maximum insulation thickness of 20 mm (0.8 inch) must be observed in the area of the electronics/neck.
If the device is installed horizontally (with transmitter head pointing upwards), an insulation
thickness of min. 10 mm (0.4") is recommended to reduce convection. The maximum insulation
thickness of 20 mm (0.8") must not be exceeded.
3.2.6Inlet and outlet run
If possible, install the sensor well clear of fittings such as valves, T-pieces, elbows, etc. As a
minimum, the inlet and outlet runs shown below must be observed to achieve the specified
accuracy of the device. The longest inlet run shown must be observed if two or more flow
disturbances are present.

3.3Installation instructions
3.3.1Mounting the sensor
• Prior to installing the measuring device in the piping, remove all traces of transport packaging and
any protective covers from the sensor.
• Make sure that the internal diameters of seals are the same as, or greater than, those of the
measuring device and piping. If seals with a smaller internal diameter are used, this affects the
flow and results in inaccurate measurement.
• Ensure that the arrow on the measuring tube matches the direction of flow in the piping.
• For Carbon steel option remove transport protection coating using mineral spirit (optional).
3.3.2Turning the transmitter housing
1.Loosen the safety screw.
2.Turn the transmitter housing to the desired position (max. 180° in each direction to the stop).
Note!

4.3Degree of protection
The devices fulfill all the requirements for IP 67 (optional IP 68) degree of protection. Compliance
with the following points is mandatory following installation in the field or servicing in order to
ensure that IP 67 protection is maintained:
• The housing seals must be clean and undamaged when inserted into their grooves. The seals must
be dried, cleaned or replaced if necessary.
• All housing screws and screw caps must be firmly tightened.
• The cables used for connection must be of the specified outside diameter.
• Firmly tighten the cable entries.
• The cables must loop down before they enter the cable entries ("water trap").
This arrangement prevents moisture penetrating the entry. Always install the measuring device
in such a way that the cable entries do not point up.
• Replace all unused cable entries with dummy plugs.
• Do not remove the grommet from the cable entry.

5.1Display and operating elements
The local display enables you to read important parameters directly at the measuring point and
configure the device using the "Quick Setup" or the function matrix.
The display consists of two lines; this is where measured values and/or status variables (e.g. bar
graph) are displayed.
By means of local operation, you can change the assignment of the display lines to different variables
to suit your needs and preferences. See Device Functions in the Appendix → ä 68

5.2.1General notes
The Quick Setup menu is adequate for commissioning with the necessary standard settings.
Complex measuring operations on the other hand necessitate additional functions that you can
configure as necessary and customize to suit your process conditions. The function matrix,
therefore, comprises a multiplicity of additional functions which, for the sake of clarity, are arranged
in a number of function groups.
Comply with the following instructions when configuring functions:
• You select functions as described already.
• You can switch off certain functions (OFF). If you do so, related functions in other function groups
will no longer be displayed.
• Certain functions prompt you to confirm your data entries. Press P to select "SURE [ YES ]" and
press F to confirm. This saves your setting or starts a function, as applicable.
• Return to the HOME position is automatic if no key is pressed for 5 minutes.
• Programming mode is automatically disabled if you do not press a key within 60 seconds
following return to the HOME position.
!
!
"
Note!
A detailed description of all the functions required for commissioning is provided in Section 11.1
"Description of device functions".
Note!
• The transmitter continues to measure while data entry is in progress, i.e. the current measured
values are output via the signal outputs in the normal way.
• If the power supply fails, all preset and configured values remain safely stored in the EEPROM.
5.2.2Enabling the programming mode
The function matrix can be disabled. Disabling the function matrix rules out the possibility of
inadvertent changes to device functions, numerical values or factory settings. A numerical code
(factory setting = 92) has to be entered before settings can be changed.
If you use a code number of your choice, you exclude the possibility of unauthorized persons
accessing data ( → see "Description of Device Functions" manual).
Comply with the following instructions when entering codes:
• If programming is disabled and the P operating elements are pressed in any function, a prompt
for the code automatically appears on the display.
• If "0" is entered as the private code, programming is always enabled.
• Your Endress+Hauser service organization can be of assistance if you are locked out of the device.
Caution!
Changing certain parameters influences numerous functions of the entire measuring device, and
may effect measuring accuracy!
There is no need to change these parameters under normal circumstances and consequently, they
are protected by a special service code known only to the Endress+Hauser service organization.
Please contact Endress+Hauser if you have any questions.
5.2.3Disabling the programming mode
Programming mode is disabled if you do not press an operating element within 60 seconds following
automatic return to the HOME position.
You can also disable programming by entering any number (other than the private code) in the
ACCESS CODE function.

5.3Communication
In addition to via local operation, the measuring device can also be configured and measured values
obtained by means of the HART protocol. Digital communication takes place using the 4–20 mA
current output HART.
The HART protocol allows the transfer of measuring and device data between the HART master and
the field devices for configuration and diagnostics purposes. HART masters, such as a handheld
terminal or PC-based operating programs (such as FieldCare), require device description (DD) files.
They are used to access all the information in a HART device. Such information is transferred solely
via "commands". There are three different command classes:
There are three different command classes:
• Universal commands
All HART devices support and use universal commands. The following functionalities are linked
to them:
– Recognizing HART devices
– Reading off digital measured values (volume flow, totalizer, etc.)
• Common practice commands:
Common practice commands offer functions which are supported and can be executed by many
but not all field devices.
• Device-specific commands:
These commands allow access to device-specific functions which are not HART standard. Such
commands access individual field device information, (among other things), such as empty-pipe/
full-pipe adjustment values, low flow cutoff settings etc.
!
Note!
The measuring device has all three command classes.

5.3.1Operating options
For the complete operation of the measuring device, including device-specific commands, there are
device description (DD) files available to the user to provide the following operating aids and
programs:

Note!
• The HART protocol requires the "4 to 20 mA HART" setting (individual options see device
function) in the CURRENT SPAN function (current output 1).
HART Field Communicator Field Xpert
Selecting device functions with a HART Communicator is a process involving a number of menu
levels and a special HART function matrix.

detailed information on the device.

FieldCare is Endress+Hauser’s FDT-based plant asset management tool and allows the configuration
and diagnosis of intelligent field devices. By using status information, you also have a simple but
effective tool for monitoring devices.

6.4Adjust
6.4.1Zero point adjustment
All measuring devices are calibrated with state-of-the-art technology. The zero point obtained in
this way is printed on the nameplate.
Calibration takes place under reference operating conditions. → ä 63
Consequently, the zero point adjustment is generally not necessary!
Experience shows that the zero point adjustment is advisable only in special cases:
• To achieve highest measuring accuracy with very small flow rates
• Under extreme process or operating conditions (e.g. very high process temperatures or very high
viscosity fluids)
Preconditions for a zero point adjustment
Note the following before you perform a zero point adjustment:
• A zero point adjustment can be performed only with fluids that contain no gas or solid contents.
• Zero point adjustment is performed with the measuring tubes completely filled and at zero flow
(v = 0 m/s). This can be achieved, for example, with shutoff valves upstream and/or downstream
of the sensor or by using existing valves and gates.
– Normal operation → valves 1 and 2 open
– Zero point adjustment with pump pressure → valve 1 open / valve 2 closed
– Zero point adjustment without pump pressure → valve 1 closed / valve 2 open
Fig. 24: Zero point adjustment and shutoff valves
Caution!
"
If the fluid is very difficult to measure (e.g. containing entrained solids or gas) it may prove
impossible to obtain a stable zero point despite repeated zero point adjustments. In instances of this
nature, please contact your Endress+Hauser service center.
Performing a zero point adjustment
1.Operate the system until operating conditions have settled.
2.Stop the flow (v = 0 m/s).
3.Check the shutoff valves for leaks.
4.Check that operating pressure is correct.

6.5Data storage device (HistoROM)
At Endress+Hauser, the term HistoROM refers to various types of data storage modules on which
process and measuring device data are stored. By plugging and unplugging such modules, device
configurations can be duplicated onto other measuring devices to cite just one example.
6.5.1HistoROM/T-DAT (transmitter–DAT)
The T-DAT is an exchangeable data storage device in which all transmitter parameters and settings
are stored.
Storing of specific parameter settings from the EEPROM to the T-DAT and vice versa has to be
carried out by the user (= manual save function). Please refer to → ä 41 for a description of the
related function (T-DAT SAVE/LOAD) and the exact procedure for managing data.

9.1Troubleshooting instructions
Always start troubleshooting with the following checklist if faults occur after commissioning or
during operation. This takes you directly (via various queries) to the cause of the problem and the
appropriate remedial measures.
Check the display
No display visible and no
output signals present
No display visible but
output signals are present
Display texts are in a
foreign language.

but no signal output at the
current or pulse output
▼
Diagnosis code on the display
The measuring device is monitored during commissioning and operation. The results are shown on the display in the
form of diagnosis code messages. Diagnosis code messages help the user to detect current conditions and faults and
errors. In accordance with the diagnosis code displayed, it is then possible to maintain the measuring device.
Depending on the diagnosis code, the behavior of the device can also be affected. Where permitted, the user then has the
option of deactivating alarms and defining them as notice messages.
There are 4 categories of diagnosis code messages: F, C, S, and M:
Category F (failure):
The device does not function as it should such that the measured values cannot be used. This also includes some process
errors.
Category C (function check):
The device is being serviced, assembled, configured or is in the simulation mode. The output signals do not correspond to
the actual process values and thus cannot be used.
Category S (outside specification):
One or more measured values (e.g. flow etc.) are outside the specified limit values that were specified at the factory or by
the users themselves. Diagnosis messages of this category are also displayed during measuring device startup or during
cleaning processes.
Category M (maintenance):
The measuring signals are still valid but are affected by factors such as wear, corrosion or fouling.
The diagnosis code messages are grouped as follows within the F, C, S and M categories.
1. Check whether the ribbon-cable connector of the display module is correctly plugged
into the amplifier board
2. Display module defective → order spare part
3. Electronics defective → order spare part
Switch off power supply. Press and hold down both the P keys and switch on the
measuring device. The display text will appear in English (default) and is displayed at
maximum contrast.

Do not return a measuring device if you are not absolutely certain that all traces of hazardous
substances have been removed, e.g. substances which have penetrated crevices or diffused through
plastic.
Costs incurred for waste disposal and injury (burns, etc.) due to inadequate cleaning will be charged
to the owner-operator.
The following steps must be taken before returning a flow measuring device to Endress+Hauser,
e.g. for repair or calibration:
• Always enclose a duly completed "Declaration of contamination" form. Only then can
Endress+Hauser transport, examine and repair a returned device.
• Enclose special handling instructions if necessary, for example a safety data sheet as per
EC REACH Regulation No. 1907/2006.
• Remove all residues. Pay special attention to the grooves for seals and crevices which could
contain residues. This is particularly important if the substance is hazardous to health, e.g.
flammable, toxic, caustic, carcinogenic, etc..
!

Note!
You will find a preprinted "Declaration of contamination" form at the back of these Operating
ructions.

Pressure equipment Directive
The measuring devices can be ordered with or without PED (Pressure Equipment Directive). If a
device with PED is required, this must be ordered explicitly. For devices with nominal diameters
less than or equal to DN 25 (1"), this is neither possible nor necessary.
• With the identification PED/G1/III on the sensor nameplate, Endress+Hauser confirms
conformity with the "Basic safety requirements" of Appendix I of the Pressure Equipment
Directive 97/23/EC.
• Devices with this identification (with PED) are suitable for the following types of fluid:
- Fluids of Group 1 and 2 with a steam pressure of greater or less than 0.5 bar (7.3 psi)
- Unstable gases
r
• .Devices without this identification (without PED) a
good engineering practice. They correspond to the requirements of Art. 3, Section 3 of the
Pressure Equipment Directive 97/23/EC. Their application is illustrated in Diagrams 6 to 9 in
Appendix II of the Pressure Equipment Directive 97/23/EC.

MEASURING UNITSDescription
Use this function to select the desired type of unit which the measuring device should use
to output the flow.
Unit types:
• Volumetric flow (volume flow)
Is measured by the measuring device. No other calculation takes place.
• Calculated mass flow
Is calculated using the measured volume flow and the value entered in the FIXED
OPERATION DENSITY function (→ ä 102).
Note!
!
The "calculated mass flow" unit types are calculated with fixed values for FIXED
OPERATION DENSITY.
• If the process conditions are known and do not change, select these two types of unit.
• If the process conditions are not known or if the process conditions could change, we
recommend you use a flow computer (e.g. Compart DXF351 or RMC621). Even when
the process conditions change, these flow computers can calculate the flow correctly
by means of pressure and temperature compensation.

Use this function to select the polarity of the frequency.
Options:
PASSIVE - POSITIVE
PASSIVE-NEGATIVE
Factory setting:
PASSIVE - POSITIVE
Explanation:
PASSIVE = power is supplied to the frequency output by means of an external power
supply
Configuring the output signal level (POSITIVE or NEGATIVE) determines the quiescent
behavior (at zero flow) of the frequency output. The internal transistor is activated as
follows:
• If POSITIVE is selected, the internal transistor is activated with a positive signal level
• If NEGATIVE is selected, the internal transistor is activated with a negative signal level
(0 V)
Note!
!
With the passive output configuration, the output signal levels of the frequency output
depend on the external wiring (see examples).
Example for passive output wiring (PASSIVE):
If PASSIVE is selected, the frequency output is configured as an open collector.
1 = Open collector
2 = External power supply
Note!
!
For continuous currents up to 25 mA (Imax = 250 mA / 20 ms).
Example for output configuration PASSIVE-POSITIVE:
Output configuration with an external pull-up resistor. In the quiescent state (at zero
flow), the output signal level at the terminals is 0 V.
1 = Open collector
2 = Pull-up resistor
3 = Transistor activation in "POSITIVE" quiescent state (at zero flow)
4 = Output signal level in quiescent state (at zero flow)
In the operating status (flow present), the output signal level switches from 0 V to a
positive voltage level.

Note!
!
This function is not available unless the PULSE option was selected in the OPERATION
MODE function.
The dictates of safety render it advisable to ensure that the pulse output assumes a
predefined state in the event of a fault. Use this function to define this state. The setting
you select here affects only the pulse output. It has no effect on other outputs or the
display (e.g. totalizers).

Pulses are continuously output with the pulse width specified in the PULSE WIDTH
function. Simulation is started once the CONTINUOUSLY option is confirmed with the
F key.
Note!
!
Simulation is started by confirming the CONTINUOUSLY option with the F key. If the
F key is pressed again afterwards, the prompt "End simulation" (NO/YES) appears.
If you choose "NO", simulation remains active and the group selection is called up. The
simulation can be switched off again via the SIMULATION PULSE function.
If you choose "YES", you end the simulation and the group selection is called up.
Factory setting:

Note!
!
• The diagnosis code message "C 482– 3 Simulation Outpt" indicates that simulation is
active. → Page 49
• The on/off ratio is for both types of simulation
• The measuring device continues to measure while simulation is in progress, i.e. the
measured values are output correctly via the other outputs.

This function is not available unless a limit value (apart from LIMIT TOTALIZER 1 or 2)
was selected in the ASSIGN STATUS function.
Use this function to select a time constant defining how the measuring signal reacts to
severely fluctuating measured variables, either very quickly (low time constant) or with
damping (high time constant).
The purpose of damping, therefore, is to prevent the status output changing state
continuously in response to fluctuations in flow.
User input:

11.10Information on the response of the status output
General information
If you have configured the status output for "LIMIT VALUE", you can specify the required switch
points in the ON VALUE and OFF VALUE functions.
When the measured variable in question reaches these predefined values, the status output switches
as shown in the illustrations below.
Status output configured for limit value
The status output switches as soon as the current measured variable undershoots or overshoots a
defined switch point.
Application: monitoring flow or process-related boundary conditions.
Measured variable
1 = ON ≤ OFF VALUE (maximum safety)
2 = ON > OFF VALUE (minimum safety)
3 = Status output switched off (not conductive)
