Product type
Mass-flow meter for liquid and gaseous products
Product name
Sensor type HPC Transmitter type UMC4, suitable for use with Heinrichs Messtechnik Coriolis mass-flow sensors Version no.
1.0, dated January 31, 2019
2. Maintenance
2.1 Transmitter
The transmitter is maintenance-free. We recommend cleaning the sight-glass in regular intervals; check the enclosure for corrosion damages
and the solid seat of the cable glands.
2.2 Coriolis mass flow sensor
The sensor is generally maintenance-free. The function only is influenced by corrosion or by deposits inside the inside of the measuring pipes. Therefore both have to be avoided mandatorily. Deposits have to be removed by suitably washing up or cleaning the internal pipes and splitter. Otherwise the measuring precision cannot be obtained.
Danger
In the case of a loop breakage, e. g. due to corrosion, medium leaks, fills the enclo­sure. Medium can get into the mounted transmitter or terminal box also (particularly at high process pressures)! The transmitter can stand under pressure, too.
Take care if there are:
Visible discolourations or humidity condensation at the sight-glass of the transmitter,  corrosion damages to the enclosure,  deformation of the sensor enclosure.

The HPC sensor is intended for use solely for direct and continuous mass flow measurement of liquids and gases, irrespective of their conductivity, density, temperature, pressure, or viscosity. The sensor is also intended for use for the direct and continuous mass flow measurement of chemical fluids, sus­pensions, molasses, paint, varnish, lacquer, pastes and similar materials.
4.2 Mode of operation
4.2.1 Measuring principle
The Coriolis mass flow meter is based on the principle whereby in a rotating system a force (known as the Coriolis force) is exerted on a mass at a rotation point that is moving towards or away from this point.
4.2.2 System configuration
The flow meter consists of a sensor that is mounted in a pipe, and a transmitter (see Section 6 Application domain of the UMC4 on pp. 27), that can be directly mounted on the sensor or installed separately (e.g. on a wall).
The transmitter oscillates the flow tubes in the sensor over a excitation coil and picks up, via the sen­sor coil, the measuring signal which is proportional to the mass flow. After being temperature compen­sated, the measuring signal is converted into an analog output signal that is consistent with the meas­uring range setting.
4.2.3 Measured variables
Measured variables: mass flow, density, temperature; Calculated: Volume flow is calculated from the mass-flow and density

4.4.3 Pressure surges
Pressure surges in a pipe could be provoked by a sudden decrease in flow caused by rapid closing of a valve or similar factors. This change in pressure can lead to negative pressure downstream from a valve that has been closed rapidly, and to outgassing. If the valve is mounted directly on the inlet sec­tion of the flow meter, a gas bubble can form in the flow tube that can cause a measuring signal dis­turbance which would shift the zero point of the output signal. In extreme cases, a pressure surge could cause mechanical damage to the sensors and/or flow tubes.
Whenever possible, quick-closing valves should be mounted downstream from the sensor. If this is not feasible, such valves are to be mounted a minimum of 10 x DIA (Φ) from the nearest sensor. Alterna­tively, valve closing speed can be reduced.

4.4.4 Using the device with hazardous fluids
The sealing technology used in the standard HPC mass flow meter renders the device unsuitable for use with hazardous fluids. Only sensors that meet the standards for safety instruments are suitable for use with hazardous fluids.
The pathway between the sensor and transmitter must be pressure-tight so as to prevent fluid from leaking out of a sensor in the event a sensor develops a defect.
In the case of welded components, a colored liquid penetration test may be performed on the welds, or one joint (only the foremost seam) may be x-rayed. Alternatively, an internal pressure monitoring de­vice can be used to detect any defect.
4.4.5 Vibration stability
The sensors are insensitive to vibration; vibration stability has been validated in accordance with DIN IEC 68-2-6, for up to 1 g at 10 to 150 Hz.
If pipe vibration is greater than 1 g in the 5-2000 Hz range, additional mounting supports are to be installed as shown in the following drawing. These supports will prevent vibration from affecting the device’s mechanical configuration and/or measurement readings.

The above example represents a pipeline installation. The table and wall variant, with their accesso­ries, are not affected by the representation.

4.5 Process conditions
4.5.1 Process temperature
− 40 °C to 180 °C (-40 °F to 356 °F); rating plate specifications are to be observed
4.5.2 Physical state
Liquid product (maximum density 2 kg/l) Gaseous product (minimum density 0.002 kg/l in operating state)
4.5.3 Viscosity
0.3 to 2,000 mPas (0.3 to 2,000 cP)
4.5.4 Gas content
The use of products containing gas will increase the measurement error. To have any chance of achieving an acceptable measurement of a gaseous liquid, it is essential that the gas bubbles are as small as possible and that they are homogeneously distributed in the fluid. Large gas bubbles will pro­voke grave measurement errors, and may also shift the zero point. Thus, the process conditions gravely influence the measurement accuracy of the meter. With this in mind, a rule of thumb is: 1 % gas component will increase false readings by 1 %. The gas component to exceed 5 %.
4.5.5 Process temperature range
+ 180 °C (356 °F)
4.5.6 Process pressure range
According to PN100 pressure rating = 100 bar / PN 320 320bar / PN400 = 400 bar
4.5.7 Outlet pressure
Outlet pressure must be greater than the vapor pressure ps of the measured product.
4.6 Connection to the transmitter
In consideration of its small dimensions, the transmitter cannot be mounted directly onto the HPC sensor. The connection to the sensor is achieved by means of a detachable cable connector. During installation, regulations and applicable legal standards are to be adhered to. The maximum cable length is 300 m (1000ft). See Section 12.5.1.2 “Connection of the sensor” on page 37 for information regarding the connection and cable specifications.

5. Commissioning
5.1 Zero point calibration
In order to ensure that precise measurements are obtained, zero point calibration is to be Performed the first time the device is put into operation and before any regular operations are carried out. Zero point calibration is to be performed using a fluid.
The zero calibration procedure is as follows:
Install the sensor as described in the manufacturer’s instructions. Check to ensure that the sensor is completely filled with fluid and that there are no gas bub-
bles in the flow tubes.
Define the process conditions such as pressure, temperature and density.
Close a potential shut-off device behind the sensor.  Operate the transmitter in accordance with the instructions in Section 14.4.4 Zero point cal-
ibration on page 57.
Make sure that sufficient time is allowed for the electronics to warm up.  Allowing fluid to flow through the sensor during the zero calibration procedure will skew the
zero point and result in false readings, especially during low flow conditions.
5.2 Startup conditions
The device is not subject to specific startup conditions. However, pressure surges should be avoided.
OPERATING MANUAL HPC & UMC4
Page 27 of 105
Warning
Only sensors and transmitters marked as Ex-proofed on their rating plates may be used in Ex hazardous areas! Standard equipment is prohibited for use in Ex hazardous areas.
6. Application domain of the UMC4 transmitter
The microprocessor controlled UMC4 transmitter (hereinafter referred to as UMC4) for use with TM, TME TMR, TMU and HPC sensors is a programmable transmitter which processes measurement data and displays and transmits various types of measurement results.
The UMC4 is capable of communication and supports the HART® protocol. The device can be custom­ized using the standard installed control unit BE4. Although basic configuration settings such as transmit­ter calibration are carried out at the factory, other settings such as those for measurement data pro­cessing, analysis, display and output are user definable.
User settings are protected by a user definable password. The user password can be changed by the customer.
Settings that are essential for proper operation of the transmitter in conjunction with the sensor (e.g. cali­bration and initialization values) are accessible only to service technicians via a password that is not pro­vided to customers.
7. UMC4 transmitter: mode of operation and configuration
7.1 Measuring principle
The Coriolis mass flow meter is based on the principle that in a rotating system a force (known as Coriolis force) is exerted on a mass at a rotation point that is moving towards or away from this point. By configur­ing the sensor in a specific fashion, this force can be used to measure mass flow directly. The UMC4 transmitter evaluates the sensor signal (see Section 4.2.1 Measuring principle on page 14).
7.2 System configuration
Transmitter: The UMC4 transmitter regulates the excitation of the sensor vibration system and processes the sensor signals. The standard model is equipped with two analog, passive 4 to 20 mA outputs, an impulse or fre­quency output and a status output, and is enabled for digital data transfer via the HART® protocol.
Sensor: The sensors measure mass-flow, density and temperature of fluids or gases. The device can be used to perform measurements with any liquid or gaseous product providing that the sensor material is suitable for the product being used.

OPERATING MANUAL HPC & UMC4
Warning
Make sure that you abide by the applicable standards and regulations pertain­ing to electrical devices, device installation and process technology when re­placing the transmitter electronics. The highly integrated electronic components in the device carry the risk of ESD hazards and are only protected when in­stalled in the device pursuant to EMC standards.
7.2.1 DSB data memory module
The replaceable plug and play memory device is integrated on the PCB of the control unit where all sen­sor data such as sensor constants, model numbers, serial numbers, and so on are stored. Consequently, the memory module is linked to the sensor. If the transmitter’s electronics are exchanged for any reason, the control unit BE4 must be removed from the old and placed onto the new electronic stack.
The removal and insertion of the control unit is performed as can be seen in the following sketch. After removing 4 screws, the control unit with the display can be detached.
If the transmitter is replaced, the control unit should be transferred to the new transmitters electronic stack. When the flow meter is powered up, the device continues using the values stored in the memory device. Thus, the DSB memory device provides maximum safety and comfort when device components are replaced.
The control units are not interchangeable arbitrarily between identically constructed transmitters due to the memory device. Replaceable circuit boards must be ordered from Heinrichs using the trans-
mitter’s serial number specification. The calibration data of the sensor are programmed into the delivered BE4 control panel directly by the manufacturer.

9.5 Low flow cutoff
The low flow cutoff can be set to values between 0 and 20% using the software. The set value refers to the upper-range value. If the measured value is lower than the set volume, the flow rate will set to 0.0 (kg/h). This results in the analog output being set to 0/4 mA, and the pulse output will stop generating pulses.
