2Introduction
2.1System description
The flowmeter consists of a sensor and a transmitter. The sensor is installed in-line with
the process piping; the transmitter is remotely mounted away from the sensor.
Figure 2-1: 8782 transmitter
Figure 2-2: MS sensor
The flow sensor contains two magnetic coils located on opposite sides of the sensor. Two
electrodes, located perpendicular to the coils and opposite each other, make contact with
the liquid. The transmitter energizes the coils and creates a magnetic field. A conductive
liquid moving through the magnetic field generates an induced voltage at the electrodes.
This voltage is proportional to the flow velocity. The transmitter converts the voltage
detected by the electrodes into a flow reading. A cross-sectional view is show in Figure 2-3.

3.1Handling and Lifting Safety
CAUTION
To reduce the risk of personal injury or damage to equipment, follow all lifting and
handling instructions.
• Handle all parts carefully to prevent damage. Whenever possible, transport the
system to the installation site in the original shipping container.
• PTFE-lined sensors are shipped with end covers that protect flange sealing surfaces
from both mechanical damage and normal unrestrained distortion. Remove the end
covers just before installation.
• Keep the shipping plugs in the conduit ports until you are ready to connect and seal
them. Appropriate care should be taken to prevent water ingress.
• The sensor should be supported by the pipeline. Pipe supports are recommended on
both the inlet and outlet sides of the sensor pipeline. There should be no additional
support attached to the sensor.
• Use proper PPE (Personal Protection Equipment) including safety glasses and safety
shoes.
• Do not lift the meter by holding the electronics housing or junction box.
• The sensor liner is vulnerable to handling damage. Never place anything through the
sensor for the purpose of lifting or gaining leverage. Liner damage can render the
sensor useless.
• Do not drop the device from any height.

3.1.1Lifting lugs
CAUTION
If provided, use the lifting lugs on each flange to handle the flow meter when it is
transported and lowered into place at the installation site. If lifting lugs are not
provided, the flow meter must be supported with a lifting sling on each side of the
housing.
• Standard pressure 3 inch through 36 inch flanged magnetic flowmeters come with
lifting lugs.
• High pressure (above 600#) 3 inch through 24 inch flanged magnetic flow meters
come with lifting lugs.

3.2Location and Position
3.2.1Environmental considerations
To ensure maximum transmitter life, avoid extreme temperatures and excessive vibration.
Typical problem areas include the following:
• Tropical/desert installations in direct sunlight
• Outdoor installations in arctic climates
3.2.2
Upstream and downstream piping
To ensure specified accuracy over widely varying process conditions, it is recommended to
install the sensor with a minimum of five straight pipe diameters upstream and two pipe
diameters downstream from the electrode plane.

Reference Manual15
Sensor piping location and orientation
The sensor should be installed in a location that ensures it remains full during operation.
Depending on where it is installed, orientation must also be considered.
• Vertical installation with upward process fluid flow keeps the cross-sectional area full,
regardless of flow rate.
• Horizontal installation should be restricted to low piping sections that are normally full.

The sensor may require a specific orientation to comply with Hazardous Area T-code
rating. Refer to the appropriate reference manual for any potential restrictions.
3.3Sensor Installation
3.3.1Flanged sensors
Gaskets
The sensor requires a gasket at each process connection. The gasket material must be
compatible with the process fluid and operating conditions. Gaskets are required on each
side of a grounding ring (see Figure 3-6). All other applications (including sensors with
lining protectors or a grounding electrode) require only one gasket on each process
connection.
Note
Metallic or spiral-wound gaskets should not be used as they will damage the liner face of
the sensor. If spiral wound or metallic gaskets are required for the application, lining
protectors must be used.

Bolts
Note
Do not bolt one side at a time. Tighten both sides simultaneously. Example:
1. Snug upstream
2. Snug downstream
3. Tighten upstream
4. Tighten downstream
Do not snug and tighten the upstream side and then snug and tighten the downstream
side. Failure to alternate between the upstream and downstream flanges when tightening
bolts may result in liner damage.
Suggested torque values by sensor line size and liner type are listed in Table 3-2 for ASME
B16.5 flanges and Table 3-3 or Table 3-4 for EN flanges. Consult the factory if the flange
rating of the sensor is not listed. Tighten flange bolts on the upstream side of the sensor in
the incremental sequence shown in Figure 3-7 to 20% of the suggested torque values.
Repeat the process on the downstream side of the sensor. For sensors with greater or
fewer flange bolts, tighten the bolts in a similar crosswise sequence. Repeat this entire
tightening sequence at 40%, 60%, 80%, and 100% of the suggested torque values.
If leakage occurs at the suggested torque values, the bolts can be tightened in additional
10% increments until the joint stops leaking, or until the measured torque value reaches
the maximum torque value of the bolts. Practical consideration for the integrity of the
liner often leads to distinct torque values to stop leakage due to the unique combinations
of flanges, bolts, gaskets, and sensor liner material.
Check for leaks at the flanges after tightening the bolts. Failure to use the correct
tightening methods can result in severe damage. While under pressure, sensor materials
may deform over time and require a second tightening 24 hours after the initial
installation.

3.4Process reference connection
The figures shown in this section illustrate best practice installations for process reference
connections only. For installations in conductive, unlined pipe it may be acceptable to use
one ground ring or one lining protector to establish a process reference connection. Earth
safety ground is also required as part of this installation, but is not shown in the figures.
Follow national, local, and plant electrical codes for safety ground.
Use Table 3-5 to determine which process reference option to follow for proper
installation.

Sensor Installation
4.1Pre-installation
Before installing the transmitter, there are several pre-installation steps that should be
completed to make the installation process easier:
• Identify options and configurations that apply to your application
• Set the hardware switches if necessary
• Consider mechanical, electrical, and environmental requirements
Note
Refer to Product Specifications for more detailed requirements.
Identify options and configurations
The typical transmitter installation includes a device power connection, a 4-20mA output
connection, and sensor coil and electrode connections. Other applications may require
one or more of the following configurations or options:
• Pulse output
• Discrete input/discrete output
• HART multidrop configuration
The transmitter may have up to four user-selectable hardware switches. These switches
set the alarm mode, internal/external analog power, internal/external pulse power, and
transmitter security. The standard configuration for these switches when shipped from the
factory is as follows:
Table 4-1: Hardware switch default settings
SettingFactory configuration
Alarm modeHigh
Internal/external analog powerInternal
Internal/external pulse powerExternal
Transmitter securityOff
The analog power switch and pulse power switches are not available when ordered with
intrinsically safe output, ordering code B.
In most cases, it is not necessary to change the setting of the hardware switches. If the
switch settings need to be changed, refer to Hardware switches.

the transmitter or 44lbs (20kgs).
4.4Wiring
4.4.1Conduit entries and connections
Transmitter conduit entries ports are ½"-14NPT as standard, M20 conduit connections will
use an adapter. Conduit connections should be made in accordance with national, local,
and plant electrical codes. Unused conduit entries should be sealed with the appropriate
certified plugs. The plastic shipping plugs do not provide ingress protection.
4.4.2
Conduit requirements
• For installations with an intrinsically safe electrode circuit, a separate conduit for the
coil cable and the electrode cable may be required. Refer to Product
Certifications.Refer to the product reference manual.
• For installations with non-intrinsically safe electrode circuit, a single dedicated conduit
run for the coil drive and electrode cable between the sensor and the remote
transmitter may be acceptable. Removal of the barriers for intrinsic safety isolation is
permitted for non-intrinsically safe electrode installations.
• Bundled cables from other equipment in a single conduit are likely to create
interference and noise in the system. See Figure 4-3.
• Electrode cables should not be run together in the same cable tray with power cables.
• Output cables should not be run together with power cables.
• Select conduit size appropriate to feed cables through to the flowmeter.

Cable preparation
Prepare the ends of the coil drive and electrode cables as shown in Figure 4-5. Remove
only enough insulation so that the exposed conductor fits completely under the terminal
connection. Best practice is to limit the unshielded length (D) of each conductor to less
than one inch. Excessive removal of insulation may result in an unwanted electrical short
to the transmitter housing or other terminal connections. Excessive unshielded length, or

Reference ManualBasic Configuration
00809-0100-8782November 2019
5Basic Configuration
Once the flow meter is installed and power has been supplied, the transmitter must be
configured using the LOI, if equipped, or a configuration tool, such as ProLink III Software.
Descriptions of more advanced functions are included in Advanced Configuration
Functionality.
5.1Basic Setup
Tag
Tag is the quickest and shortest way of identifying and distinguishing between
transmitters. Transmitters can be tagged according to the requirements of your
application. The transmitter supports the 8 character Tag and the 32 character Long Tag.
Both parameters are available for configuration.
Calibration number
The sensor calibration number is a 16-digit number generated at the factory during flow
calibration, is unique to each sensor, and is located on the sensor nameplate.
Flow units (PV)
The flow units variable specifies the format in which the flow rate will be displayed. Units
should be selected to meet your particular metering needs. See Measurement units.
Line size
The line size (sensor size) must be set to match the actual sensor connected to the
transmitter. The size must be specified in inches.
Upper range value (URV)
The URV sets the 20 mA point for the analog output. This value is typically set to full-scale
flow. The units that appear will be the same as those selected under the flow units
parameter. The URV may be set between –39.3 ft/s to 39.3 ft/s (–12 m/s to 12m/s). There
must be at least 1 ft/s (0.3 m/s) span between the URV and LRV.
Note
If entering a negative number, the minus sign must be entered in the furthest left position
on the LOI.
Lower range value (LRV)
The LRV sets the 4 mA point for the analog output. This value is typically set to zero flow.
The units that appear will be the same as those selected under the flow units parameter.
The LRV may be set between –39.3 ft/s to 39.3 ft/s (–12 m/s to 12m/s). There must be at
least 1 ft/s (0.3 m/s) span between the URV and LRV.
Note
If entering a negative number, the minus sign must be entered in the furthest left position
on the LOI.
Reference Manual41
Basic ConfigurationReference Manual
November 201900809-0100-8782
Auto zero
The Auto zero is recommended for optimum performance when a flow meter is initially
installed, and it typically does not need to be performed again. However, if process
conditions drastically change, a new Auto zero is recommended. The sensor must be filled
completely with process fluid at zero flow. For more information, see Auto zero.
5.2Local operator interface (LOI)
To access the transmitter menu, press the XMTR MENU key. Use the UP, DOWN, LEFT(E),
and RIGHT arrows to navigate the menu structure.
A complete map of the LOI menu structure is shown in LOI Menu trees.
The display can be locked to prevent unintentional configuration changes. The display lock
can be activated through a HART communication device, or by holding the UP arrow for
three seconds and then following the on-screen instructions.

6.1Hardware switches
The electronics are equipped with four user-selectable hardware switches. These switches
set the Alarm Mode, Internal/External Analog Power, Transmitter Security, and Internal/
External Pulse Power.
Definitions of these switches and their functions are provided below. To change the
settings, see below.
6.1.1Alarm mode
If an event occurs that would trigger an alarm in the electronics, the analog output will be
driven high or low, depending on the switch position. The switch is set in the HIGH
position when shipped from the factory. Refer to Table 8-1 and Table 8-2 for analog
output values of the alarm.
6.1.2
6.1.3
Transmitter security
The SECURITY switch allows the user to lock out any configuration changes attempted on
the transmitter.
• When the security switch is in the ON position, the configuration can be viewed but no
changes can be made.
• When the security switch is in the OFF position, the configuration can be viewed and
changes can be made.
The switch is in the OFF position when the transmitter is shipped from the factory.
Note
The flow rate indication and totalizer functions remain active when the SECURITY switch is
in either position.
Internal/external analog power
Note
With output option code B, the analog output can only be externally powered and there is
no ANALOG switch.
The 4–20 mA loop can be powered internally by the transmitter or externally by an
external power supply. The ANALOG switch determines the source of the 4–20 mA loop
power.
• When the switch is in the INTERNAL position, the 4–20 mA loop is powered internally
by the transmitter.
• When the switch is in the EXTERNAL position, a 10-30 VDC external power supply is
required. For more information about 4–20 mA external power, see Analog output.
Reference Manual45
Advanced installation detailsReference Manual
November 201900809-0100-8782
The switch is in the INTERNAL position when the transmitter is shipped from the factory.
Note
External power is required for multidrop configurations.
6.1.4Internal/external pulse power
Note
With output option code B, the pulse output can only be externally powered and there is
no PULSE switch.
The pulse loop can be powered internally by the transmitter or externally or by an external
power supply. The PULSE switch determines the source of the pulse loop power.
• When the switch is in the INTERNAL position, the pulse loop is powered internally by
the transmitter.
• When the switch is in the EXTERNAL position, a 5–28 VDC external supply is required.
For more information about pulse external power, see Connect pulse output.
The switch is in the EXTERNAL position when the transmitter is shipped from the factory.
6.1.5

6.3Coil housing configuration
The coil housing provides physical protection of the coils and other internal components
from contamination and physical damage that might occur in an industrial environment.
The coil housing is an all-welded and gasket-free design.
The MS sensor model is available in four coil housing configurations. Configurations are
identified by the M0, M1, M2, or M4 options codes found in the model number.
6.3.1Standard coil housing configuration
The standard coil housing configuration is a factory sealed all-welded enclosure and is
available for the following models (see Figure 6-12):
• MS with option code M0 - MSxxxxxxxxxxxxM0

B
A. Conduit connection
B. No relief port (welded shut or absent)
Process leak protection (option M1)
The sensor is available with process leak detection through the use of a threaded
connection and pressure relief valve (PRV). This coil housing configuration is a factory
sealed all-welded enclosure.
• MS with option code M1 - MSxxxxxxxxxxxxM1
A PRV can be installed in the threaded connection to prevent possible over-pressuring of
the coil housing caused by a primary seal failure. The PRV is capable of venting fugitive
emissions when pressure inside the coil housing exceeds five psi. Additional piping may be
connected to the PRV to drain any process leakage to a safe location (see Figure 6-13).
In the event of a primary seal failure, this configuration will not protect the coils or other
internal components of the sensor from exposure to the process fluid.

Process leak containment (Option M2 or M4)
The sensor is available with process leak containment. The coil housing configuration is a
factory sealed all-welded enclosure with the addition of sealed electrode compartments.
• MS with option code M2/M4 - MSxxxxxxxxxxxxM2/M4
This configuration divides the coil housing into separate compartments, one for each
electrode and one for the coils. In the event of a primary seal failure, the fluid is contained
in the electrode compartment. The sealed electrode compartment prevents the process
fluid from entering the coil compartment where it may damage the coils and other
internal components. The electrode compartments are designed to contain the process
fluid up to a maximum pressure of 740 psig.
• Code M2 - sealed, welded coil housing with separate sealed and welded electrode
compartments (see Figure 6-14).
• Code M4 - sealed, welded coil housing with separate sealed and welded electrode
compartments with a threaded port on the electrode tunnel cap, capable of venting
fugitive emissions (see Figure 6-15).
Note
To properly vent process fluid from the electrode compartment to a safe location,
additional piping is required and must be installed by the user. Installation of any
associated piping must be performed in accordance with environmental and hazardous

6.3.4Higher temperature applications and sensor insulation
best practices
Insulation of the magnetic flowmeter sensor is not typically recommended. However, in
applications with higher temperature process fluids (above 150°F / 65°C), plant safety,
sensor reliability, and sensor longevity can be improved with careful attention to proper
insulation.
1. In applications where process fluid permeation of the liner has been observed or
may be expected, the rate of permeation can be reduced by decreasing the
temperature gradient between the process fluid and the outside of the meter body.
In these applications only the space between the process flanges and the coil
housing should be insulated (see Figure 6-16).

A. Process piping
B. Coil housing
C. Insulation
2. When insulation of the magnetic flowmeter sensor is required due to plant safety
standards designed to protect personnel from contact burns, extend the insulation
up to the coil housing, covering both ends of the sensor and flanges (Figure 6-17).
The insulation should NOT cover the coil housing or the terminal junction box.
Insulating the coil housing and the terminal junction box can result in overheating
of the coil compartment and terminals, resulting in erratic/erroneous flow readings
and potential damage or failure of the meter.

68 Rosemount® 8782 Slurry Magnetic Flow Meter Transmitter with HART Protocol
This section contains information for advanced configuration parameters.
The software configuration settings for the transmitter can be accessed through a HART®based communicator, Local Operator Interface (LOI), or through a control system. Before
operating the transmitter in an actual installation, you should review all of the factory set
configuration data to ensure that they reflect the current application.
8.2Configure outputs
LOI menu pathDetailed Setup →Output Config
8.2.1
The configure outputs functionality is used to configure advanced features that control
the pulse, auxiliary, and totalizer outputs of the transmitter.
Analog output
LOI menu pathDetailed Setup→Output Config→Analog
The analog output function is used to configure all of the features of the 4-20 mA output.
Upper range value
LOI menu path
The upper range value (URV) sets the 20 mA point for the analog output. This value is
typically set to full-scale flow. The units that appear will be the same as those selected
under the units parameter. The URV may be set between –39.3 ft/s to 39.3 ft/s (–12 m/s
to 12 m/s) or the equivalent range based on the selected flow units. There must be at least
1 ft/s (0.3 m/s) span or equivalent between the URV and LRV.
Note
If entering a negative number, the minus sign must be entered in the furthest left position
on the LOI.
LOI menu pathDetailed Setup→Output Config,→Analog→PV LRV
The lower range value (LRV) sets the 4 mA point for the analog output. This value is
typically set to zero flow. The units that appear will be the same as those selected under
the units parameter. The LRV may be set between –39.3 ft/s to 39.3 ft/s (–12 m/s to 12
m/s) or the equivalent range based on the selected flow units. There must be at least 1 ft/s
(0.3 m/s) span or equivalent between the URV and LRV.
Note
If entering a negative number, the minus sign must be entered in the furthest left position
on the LOI.

There are diagnostics that, when under active conditions, do not drive the analog output
to alarm level. The AO diagnostic alarm menu enables selection of these diagnostics to be
associated with an analog alarm. If any of the selected diagnostics are active, it will cause
the analog output to go to the configured alarm level. For a list of diagnostic alarms that
can be configured to drive an analog alarm, see Table 8-3.

Pulse output
LOI menu pathDetailed Setup→Output Config→Pulse
Under this function the pulse output of the transmitter can be configured.
Line size, special units, and density must be selected prior to configuration of the pulse
scaling factor.
The pulse output scaling equates one transistor switch closure pulse to a selectable
number of volume units. The volume unit used for scaling pulse output is taken from the
numerator of the configured flow units. For example, if gal/min had been chosen when
selecting the flow unit, the volume unit displayed would be gallons.
Note
The pulse output scaling is designed to operate between 0 and 10,000 Hz. The minimum
conversion factor value is found by dividing the minimum span (in units of volume per
second) by 10,000 Hz.
The best choice for this parameter depends upon the required resolution, the number of
digits in the totalizer, the extent of range required, and the maximum frequency limit of
the external counter.
Pulse factor units
LOI menu pathDetailed Setup→Output Config→Pulse→Units
The pulse factor unit assigns the unit of measure to the pulse scaling factor. The default
read-only value is the unit of measure from the configured flow units. For example, if
gal/min is selected when configuring the flow units, the pulse factor unit will be gallons.
Pulse width
LOI menu pathDetailed Setup→Output Config→Pulse→Pulse Width
The factory default pulse width is 0.5
ms.
The width, or duration, of the pulse can be adjusted to match the requirements of
different counters or controllers (see
Figure 8-1). These are typically lower frequency
applications (< 1000Hz). The transmitter will accept values from 0.1 ms to 650 ms.
For frequencies higher than 1000Hz, it is recommended to set the pulse mode to 50% duty
cycle by setting the pulse mode to frequency output.
The pulse width will limit the maximum frequency output, If the pulse width is set too wide
(more than 1/2 the period of the pulse) the transmitter will limit the pulse output. See
example below.
72 Rosemount® 8782 Slurry Magnetic Flow Meter Transmitter with HART Protocol
If pulse width is set to 100 ms, the maximum output is 5Hz; for a pulse width of 0.5 ms, the
maximum output would be 1000Hz (at the maximum frequency output there is a 50%
duty cycle).

To achieve the greatest maximum frequency output, set the pulse width to the lowest
value that is consistent with the requirements of the pulse output power source, pulse
driven external totalizer, or other peripheral equipment.
The maximum flow rate is 10,000 gpm. Set the pulse output scaling such that the
transmitter outputs 10,000 Hz at 10,000 gpm.
Pulse Scaling =

Note
Changes to pulse width are only required when there is a minimum pulse width required
for external counters, relays, etc.
The external counter is ranged for 350 gpm and pulse is set for one gallon. Assuming the
pulse width is 0.5 ms, the maximum frequency output is 5.833Hz.
The upper range value (20mA) is 3000 gpm. To obtain the highest resolution of the pulse
output, 10,000 Hz is scaled to the full scale analog reading.

8.2.3Totalizer
The totalizer provides the total amount of fluid that has passed through the meter. There
are three available totalizers: Total A, Total B, and Total C. They can be independently
configured for one of the following options:
• Net - increments with forward flow and decrements with reverse flow (reverse flow
must be enabled).
• Reverse total - will only increment with reverse flow if reverse flow is enabled
• Forward total - will only increment with forward flow
All totalizer values will be reset if line size is changed. This will happen even if the totalizer
reset control is set to non-resettable.
The totalizers have the capability to increment the total to a maximum value of 50 feet per
second of flow (or the volumetric equivalent) for a period of 20 years before roll-over
occurs.

8.2.4Discrete input/output
This configuration option is only available if the auxiliary output suite (option code AX) was
ordered. The auxiliary output suite provides two channels for control.
• The discrete input can provide positive zero return (PZR) or reset totalizer (A, B, C, or all
totals).
Note
If a particular totalizer is configured to be not resettable, the totalizer will not be reset
with this function.
• The discrete output control function can be configured to drive an external signal to
indicate zero flow, reverse flow, empty pipe, diagnostic status, flow limit, or
transmitter status.
A complete list and description of the available auxiliary functions is provided below.
Discrete input options (Channel 1 only)
PZR (Positive Zero
Return)
Net Total Reset
When conditions are met to activate the input, the transmitter
will force the output to zero flow.
When conditions are met to activate the input, the transmitter
will reset the net total value to zero.
76 Rosemount® 8782 Slurry Magnetic Flow Meter Transmitter with HART Protocol
This parameter configures the auxiliary output channel 1. It controls whether channel 1
will be a discrete input or discrete output on terminals 11(-) and 12(+).
Note
The transmitter must have been ordered with the auxiliary output suite (option code AX)
to have access to this functionality.
LOI menu pathDetailed Setup→Output Config→DI/DO Config→DO 2
This parameter displays the configuration for channel 2.
Flow limit (1 and 2)
There are two configurable flow limits. Configure the parameters that will determine the
criteria for activation of a HART alert if the measured flow rate falls within a set of
configured criteria. This functionality can be used for operating simple batching
operations or generating alerts when certain flow conditions are met. This parameter can
be configured as a discrete output if the transmitter was ordered with the auxiliary output
suite (option code AX) and the outputs are enabled. If a discrete output is configured for
flow limit, the discrete output will activate when the conditions defined under mode
configuration are met. See Mode below.
This parameter turns the flow limit HART alert ON or OFF.
ON
The transmitter will generate a HART alert when the defined conditions are met. If a
discrete output is configured for flow limit, the discrete output will activate when
the conditions for mode are met.
OFF
The transmitter will not generate an alert for the flow limit.
78 Rosemount® 8782 Slurry Magnetic Flow Meter Transmitter with HART Protocol
The mode parameter sets the conditions under which the flow limit alert will activate.
High and low limits exist for each channel and can be configured independently.
> High limit
The HART alert will activate when the measured flow rate exceeds the

< Low limit
The HART alert will activate when the measured flow rate falls below the
low limit set point.
In range
The HART alert will activate when the measured flow rate is between the
high limit and low limit set points.
Out of range
The HART alert will activate when the measured flow rate exceeds the
high limit set point or falls below the low limit set point.
Set the hysteresis band for the flow limit to determine how quickly the transmitter comes
out of alert status. The hysteresis value is used for both flow limit 1 and flow limit 2.
Changing this parameter under the configuration parameters for one channel will cause it
to also change in the other channel.
Configure the parameters that will determine the criteria for activating a alert if Totalizer A
falls within a set of configured criteria. This functionality can be used for operating simple
batching operations or generating alerts when certain localized values are met. This
parameter can be configured as a discrete output if the transmitter was ordered with
auxiliary outputs enabled (option code AX). If a digital output is configured for total limit,
the digital output will activate when the conditions for total mode are met.

only variable and can be read from the HART signal with a HART enabled input card, or can
be burst for use with a HART Tri-Loop to convert the HART signal to an analog output.
Options available for mapping to this variable can be found in Available Variables.
The tertiary variable maps the third variable of the transmitter. This variable is a HART only
variable and can be read from the HART signal with a HART enabled input card, or can be
burst for use with a HART Tri-Loop to convert the HART signal to an analog output.
Options available for mapping to this variable can be found in Available Variables.
The quaternary variable maps the fourth variable of the transmitter. This variable is a HART
only variable and can be read from the HART signal with a HART enabled input card, or can
be burst for use with a HART Tri-Loop™ to convert the HART signal to an analog output.
Options available for mapping to this variable can be found in Available Variables.
82 Rosemount® 8782 Slurry Magnetic Flow Meter Transmitter with HART Protocol
LOI menu pathDetailed Setup→Output Config→HART→Poll Address
Poll address enables the transmitter to be used in point-to-point mode or multi-drop
mode. When in multi-drop mode, the poll address is used to identify each meter on the
multi-drop line.
The transmitter poll address is set to zero at the factory, allowing standard operation in a
point-to-point manner with a 4–20 mA output signal. To activate multi-drop
communication:
• Empty Pipe Value
• Transmitter Velocity Deviation
• Electrode Coating Value (DS1 Option)
• Electrode Resistance
• Coil Resistance Value (MV Option)
• Coil Inductance Value (MV Option)
• Coil Baseline Deviation (MV Option)
• Analog Output Feedback Deviation
• Coil Current
8.3.3
8.3.4
• The transmitter poll address must be changed to a non-zero integer (1-63).
• The Loop Current Mode may need to be set to ON to fix the output current to 4 mA, or
it can be set to OFF if a 4–20 mA output is desired. See Loop current mode.
Loop current mode
LOI menu pathDetailed Setup→Output Config→HART→Loop Curr Mode
Available through the LOI only.
When loop current mode is set to ON, the analog output current tracks with changes in
PV. When loop current mode is OFF, the analog output current is fixed at 4 mA.
Burst mode
LOI menu pathDetailed Setup→Output Config→HART→Burst Mode
The transmitter includes a burst mode function that can be enabled to broadcast the
primary variable or all dynamic variables approximately three to four times per second.
Burst mode is a specialized function used in very specific applications. The burst mode
function enables you to select the variables that are broadcast while in the burst mode.

8.5Additional parameters
The following parameters may be required for detailed configuration settings based on
your application.
8.5.1
Reference Manual85
Coil drive frequency
LOI menu pathDetailed Setup→Additional Params→Coil Drive Freq
This parameter changes the drive frequency of the magnetic coils.
The standard coil drive frequency is Low. This is the recommended coil drive frequency
setting for most applications.
High
If the process fluid causes a noisy or unstable flow reading, increase the coil drive
frequency to High. If the coil drive frequency is set to High, the auto zero trim is highly
recommended for optimal performance. Not performing the auto zero trim can lead to
degraded accuracy, especially at low flow rates.
8.5.2Process density
LOI menu pathDetailed Setup→More Params→Proc Density
Use the process density value to convert from a volumetric flow rate to a mass flow rate
using the following equation:
Qm = Qv x p
8.5.3
8.5.4
Where:
Qm is the mass flow rate
Qv is the volumetric flow rate, and
p is the fluid density
Reverse flow
LOI menu pathDetailed Setup→Output Config →Reverse Flow
Use reverse flow to enable or disable the transmitter's ability to read flow in the opposite
direction of the flow direction arrow (see Flow direction). This may occur when the process
has bi-directional flow, or when either the electrode wires or the coil wires are reversed
(see Troubleshooting Remote wiring). This also enables the totalizer to count in the
reverse direction.
Low flow cutoff
LOI menu pathDetailed Setup→Sig Processing→Lo-Flow Cutoff
Low flow cutoff allows the user to set a low flow limit to be specified. The low flow cutoff
units are the same as the PV units and cannot be changed. The low flow cutoff value
applies to both forward and reverse flows.

LOI menu pathDetailed Setup→Sig Processing→Damping
Primary variable damping allows selection of a response time, in seconds, to a step change
in flow rate. It is most often used to smooth fluctuations in output.
8.6Configure special units
Special units are used when the application requires units that are not included in the flow
units available from the device. Refer to for a complete list of the available units.
8.6.1
8.6.2
8.6.3
Base volume unit
LOI menu pathBasic Setup→Flow Units→Special Units→Base Vol Units
Base volume unit is the unit from which the conversion is being made. Set this variable to
the appropriate option.
Conversion factor
LOI menu pathBasic Setup→Flow Units→Special Units→Conv Factor
The special units conversion factor is used to convert base units to special units. For a
straight conversion of units from one unit of measure to a different unit of measure, the
conversion factor is the number of base units in the new unit.
Example: If you are converting from gallons to barrels and there are 31 gallons in a barrel,
the conversion factor is 31.
Base time unit
LOI menu pathBasic Setup→Flow Units→Special Units→Base Time Unit
Base time unit provides the time unit from which to calculate the special units.For
example, if your special units is a volume per minute, select minutes.
8.6.4
Reference Manual87
Special volume unit
LOI menu pathBasic Setup→Flow Units→Special Units→Volume Unit
Special volume unit enables you to display the volume unit format to which you have
converted the base volume units.
Example: If the special units are abc/min, the special volume variable is abc. The volume
units variable is also used in totalizing the special units flow.
LOI menu pathBasic Setup→Flow Units→Special Units→Rate Unit
Flow rate unit is a format variable that provides a record of the units to which you are
converting. The Handheld Communicator will display a special units designator as the
units format for your primary variable. The actual special units setting you define will not
appear. Four characters are available to store the new units designation. The LOI will
display the four character designation as configured.
Example: To display flow in acre-feet per day, and acre-foot is equal to 43560 cubic feet,
the procedure would be:
1. Set the volume unit to ACFT.
2. Set the base volume unit to ft3.
3. Set the conversion factor to 43560.
4. Set the time base unit to Day.
5. Set the flow rate unit to AF/D.
88 Rosemount® 8782 Slurry Magnetic Flow Meter Transmitter with HART Protocol
Rosemount magnetic flowmeters provide device diagnostics that detect and warn of
abnormal situations throughout the life of the meter—from installation to maintenance
and meter verification. With Rosemount magnetic flowmeter diagnostics enabled, plant
availability and throughput can be improved, and costs through simplified installation,
maintenance and troubleshooting can be reduced.
Meter Factor is a gain adjustment that may be needed to adjust for installation effects
caused by less than ideal straight run piping or if pairing the 8782 with an 8707 instead of
with a MS sensor.
The procedure is very similar to Vortex and Coriolis and is entered as a flow multiplication
factor of the range 0.2 to 1.8. Not all installations will require a Meter Factor and the 8782
will have a stable flow rate without a Meter Factor. If replacing an existing legacy
transmitter, a Meter Factor will enable the 8782 to match the legacy transmitter flow
reading if there is a discrepancy.
Performing an auto zero trim is recommended for best performance on the 8782. If an
auto zero trim is performed at any time after entering a meter factor adjustment, the
meter factor will need to be re-calculated and re-entered post auto zero trim or else
accuracy could be impacted.
Meter Factor = Actual Flow Rate (from 8712H) / Current Flow Rate (From 8782)
Example:
• The known actual flow rate is 100 GPM.
• A newly installed transmitter reads a flow rate of 1150 GPM after auto zero.
Remedy:
1. Perform a Meter Factor calculation of 100/115 = 0.8696.
2. Enter a Meter Factor of 0.8696 into the transmitter.
Note
Four decimal places are available to avoid rounding errors.
Result:
• The transmitter now reads 100 GPM
9.3Licensing and enabling
All advanced diagnostics are licensed by ordering option code MV or DS1. In the event that
a diagnostic option is not ordered, advanced diagnostics can be licensed in the field
through the use of a license key. Each transmitter has a unique license key specific to the
diagnostic option code. A trial license is also available to enable the advanced diagnostics.
This temporary functionality will be automatically disabled after 30-days or when power to
the transmitter is cycled, whichever occurs first. This trial code can be used a maximum of
three times per transmitter. See the detailed procedures below for entering the license
key and enabling the advanced diagnostics. To obtain a permanent or trial license key,
contact an Emerson representative.

9.4Tunable empty pipe detection
The tunable empty pipe detection provides a means of minimizing issues and false
readings when the pipe is empty. This is most important in batching applications where
the pipe may run empty with some regularity. If the pipe is empty, this diagnostic will
activate, set the flow rate to 0, and deliver an alert.
9.4.1
Turning empty pipe on/off
LOI menu path
The tunable empty pipe detection diagnostic can be turned on or off as required by the
application. The empty pipe diagnostic is shipped turned “On” by default.
Diagnostics → Diag Controls → Empty Pipe
Tunable empty pipe parameters
The tunable empty pipe diagnostic has one read-only parameter, and two parameters that
can be custom configured to optimize the diagnostic performance.
Empty pipe (EP) value
LOI menu path
This parameter shows the current empty pipe value. This is a read-only value. This number
is a unit-less number and is calculated based on multiple installation and process variables
such as sensor type, line size, process fluid properties, and wiring. If the empty pipe value
exceeds the empty pipe trigger level for a specified number of updates, then the empty
pipe diagnostic alert will activate.
Empty pipe trigger level is the threshold limit that the empty pipe value must exceed
before the empty pipe diagnostic alert activates. The default setting from the factory is
100.
Empty pipe (EP) counts
LOI menu pathDiagnostics→Basic Diag→Empty Pipe→EP Counts
Limits: 2 to 50
Empty pipe counts is the number of consecutive updates that the transmitter must receive
where the empty pipe value exceeds the empty pipe trigger level before the empty pipe
diagnostic alert activates. The default setting from the factory is 5.
9.4.2Optimizing tunable empty pipe
The tunable empty pipe diagnostic is set at the factory to properly diagnose most
applications. If this diagnostic activates, the following procedure can be followed to
optimize the empty pipe diagnostic for the application.
1. Record the empty pipe value with a full pipe condition.
Full reading = 0.2
2. Record the empty pipe value with an empty pipe condition.
Empty reading = 80.0
3. Set the empty pipe trigger level to a value between the full and empty readings.
For increased sensitivity to empty pipe conditions, set the trigger level to a value
closer to the full pipe value.
Set the trigger level to 25.0
4. Set the empty pipe counts to a value corresponding to the desired sensitivity level
for the diagnostic.
For applications with entrained air or potential air slugs, less sensitivity may be
desired.
Set the counts to 10
9.5Electronics temperature
The transmitter continuously monitors the temperature of the internal electronics. If the
measured electronics temperature exceeds the operating limits of –40 to 140 °F (–40 to
60 °C) the transmitter will go into alarm and generate an alert.
92 Rosemount® 8782 Slurry Magnetic Flow Meter Transmitter with HART Protocol
The electronics temperature diagnostic can be turned on or off as required by the
application.The electronics temperature diagnostic will be turned on by default.
9.5.2Electronics temperature parameters
The electronics temperature diagnostic has one read-only parameter. It does not have any
configurable parameters.
LOI menu path
This parameter shows the current temperature of the electronics. This is a read-only value.
Diagnostics → Variables → Elect Temp
9.6Ground/wiring fault detection
The transmitter continuously monitors signal amplitudes over a wide range of frequencies.
For the ground/wiring fault detection diagnostic, the transmitter specifically looks at the
signal amplitude at frequencies of 50 Hz and 60 Hz which are the common AC cycle
frequencies found throughout the world. If the amplitude of the signal at either of these
frequencies exceeds 5 mV, that is an indication that there is a ground or wiring issue and
that stray electrical signals are getting into the transmitter. The diagnostic alert will
activate indicating that the ground and wiring of the installation should be carefully
reviewed.
The ground/wiring fault detection diagnostic provides a means of verifying installations
are done correctly. If the installation is not wired or grounded properly, this diagnostic will
activate and deliver an alert. This diagnostic can also detect if the grounding is lost overtime due to corrosion or another root cause.
9.6.1
Turning ground/wiring fault on/off
LOI menu pathDiagnostics→Diag Controls→Ground/Wiring
The ground/wiring fault detection diagnostic can be turned on or off as required by the
application.
9.6.2
Reference Manual93
Ground/wiring fault parameters
The ground/wiring fault detection diagnostic has one read-only parameter. It does not
have any configurable parameters.
The line noise parameter shows the amplitude of the line noise. This is a read-only value.
This number is a measure of the signal strength at 50/60 Hz. If the line noise value exceeds
5 mV, then the ground/wiring fault diagnostic alert will activate.
9.7High process noise detection
The high process noise diagnostic detects if there is a process condition causing an
unstable or noisy reading that is not an actual flow variation. A common cause of high
process noise is slurry flow, like pulp stock or mining slurries. Other conditions that cause
this diagnostic to activate are high levels of chemical reaction or entrained gas in the
liquid. If unusual noise or flow variation is seen, this diagnostic will activate and deliver an
alert. If this situation exists and is left without remedy, it will add additional uncertainty
and noise to the flow reading.
9.7.1
9.7.2
Turning high process noise on/off
LOI menu pathDiagnostics→Diag Controls→Process Noise
The high process noise diagnostic can be turned on or off as required by the application. If
the advanced diagnostics suite 1 (DS1 Option) was ordered, then the high process noise
diagnostic will be turned on. If DS1 was not ordered or licensed, this diagnostic is not
available.
High process noise parameters
The high process noise diagnostic has two read-only parameters. It does not have any
configurable parameters. This diagnostic requires that flow be present in the pipe and the
velocity be greater than1 ft/s (0.3 m/s). The low and high frequency signal values depend
on the line size.
Low frequency signal to noise ratio (SNR)
LOI menu path
This parameter shows the value of the signal to noise ratio at the coil drive low frequency.
This is a read-only value. This number is a measure of the signal strength at low frequency
relative to the amount of process noise. If the transmitter is operating in low frequency
mode, and the signal to noise ratio remains below [25] for one minute, then the high
process noise diagnostic alert will activate.
LOI menu pathDiagnostics→Variables→Noise Analysis→High Freq Noise
This parameter shows the current value of the signal to noise ratio at the coil drive high
frequency. This is a read-only value. This number is a measure of the signal strength at
high frequency relative to the amount of process noise. If the transmitter is operating in
high frequency mode, and the signal to noise ratio remains below [25] for one minute,
then the high process noise diagnostic alert will activate.
9.8Coated electrode detection
The coated electrode detection diagnostic provides a means of monitoring insulating
coating buildup on the measurement electrodes. If coating is not detected, buildup over
time can lead to a compromised flow measurement. This diagnostic can detect if the
electrode is coated and if the amount of coating is affecting the flow measurement. There
are two levels of electrode coating.
• Limit 1 indicates when coating is starting to occur, but has not compromised the flow
measurement.
9.8.1
9.8.2
• Limit 2 indicates when coating is affecting the flow measurement and the meter should
be serviced immediately.
Turning coated electrode detection on/off
LOI menu pathDiagnostics→Diag Controls→Elec Coating
The coated electrode detection diagnostic can be turned on or off as required by the
application. If the advanced diagnostics suite 1 (DS1 option) was ordered, then the coated
electrode detection diagnostic will be turned on. If DS1 was not ordered or licensed, this
diagnostic is not available.
Coated electrode parameters
The coated electrode detection diagnostic has four parameters. Two are read-only and
two are configurable parameters. The electrode coating parameters need to be initially
monitored to accurately set the electrode coating limit levels for each application.

9.94-20 mA loop verification
The 4-20 mA loop verification diagnostic provides a means of verifying the analog output
loop is functioning properly. This is a manually initiated diagnostic test. This diagnostic
checks the integrity of the analog loop and provides a health status of the circuit. If the
verification does not pass, this will be highlighted in the results given at the end of the
check.
The 4-20 mA loop verification diagnostic is useful for testing the analog output when
errors are suspected. The diagnostic tests the analog loop at five different mA output
levels:
• 4 mA
• 12 mA
• 20 mA
• Low alarm level
• High alarm level

The 4–20 mA loop verification diagnostic can be initiated as required by the application. If
Smart Meter Verification Professional (MV Option) was ordered, then the 4–20 mA loop
verification diagnostic will be available. If MV was not ordered or licensed, this diagnostic is
not available.
9.9.24-20 mA loop verification parameters
The 4-20 mA loop verification diagnostic has five read-only parameters plus an overall test
result. It does not have any configurable parameters.
The Smart Meter Verification diagnostic provides a means of verifying the flowmeter is
within calibration without removing the sensor from the process. This diagnostic test
provides a review of the transmitter and sensor's critical parameters as a means to
document verification of calibration. The results of this diagnostic provide the deviation
amount from expected values and a pass/fail summary against user-defined criteria for the
application and conditions. The Smart Meter Verification diagnostic can be configured to
run continuously in the background during normal operation, or it can be manually
initiated as required by the application.
9.10.1Sensor baseline parameters
The Smart Meter Verification diagnostic functions by taking a baseline sensor signature
and then comparing measurements taken during the verification test to these baseline
results.
The sensor signature describes the magnetic behavior of the sensor. Based on Faraday's
law, the induced voltage measured on the electrodes is proportional to the magnetic field
strength. Thus, any changes in the magnetic field will result in a calibration shift of the
sensor. Having the transmitter take an initial sensor signature when first installed will
provide the baseline for the verification tests that are done in the future. There are three
specific measurements that are stored in the transmitter's non-volatile memory that are
used when performing the calibration verification.
Coil circuit resistance
LOI menu path
The coil resistance is a measurement of the coil circuit health. This value is used as a
baseline to determine if the coil circuit is still operating correctly.
Coil inductance (signature)
LOI menu path
The coil inductance is a measurement of the magnetic field strength. This value is used as
a baseline to determine if a sensor calibration shift has occurred.
Electrode circuit resistance
LOI menu path
The electrode circuit resistance is a measurement of the electrode circuit health. This
value is used as a baseline to determine if the electrode circuit is still operating correctly.
The first step in running the Smart Meter Verification test is establishing the reference
baseline that the test will use as the baseline for comparison. This is accomplished by
having the transmitter take a baseline of the sensor.
Reset baseline (re-signature meter)
LOI menu pathDiagnostics → Advanced Diag → Meter Verif → Sensr Baseline
→ Reset Baseline
Having the transmitter take an initial sensor baseline when first installed will provide the
comparison point for the verification tests that are done in the future. The sensor baseline
should be taken during the start-up process when the transmitter is first connected to the
sensor, with a full line, and ideally with no flow in the line. Running the sensor baseline
procedure when there is flow in the line is permissible, but this may introduce some noise
into the electrode circuit resistance measurement. If an empty pipe condition exists, then
the sensor baseline should only be run for the coils.
Note
For high temperature applications, it is a best practice to take the sensor baseline when
the process fluid and sensor have reached their normal operating temperature if that will
be operating condition during test measurements.
9.10.3
Once the sensor baseline process is complete, the measurements taken during this
procedure are stored in non-volatile memory to prevent loss in the event of a power
interruption to the meter. This initial sensor signature is required for both manual and
continuous Smart Meter Verification.
Recall values (recall last saved)
LOI menu path
In the event that the sensor baseline was reset accidentally or incorrectly, this function will
restore the previously saved sensor baseline values.
The Smart Meter Verification diagnostic provides the ability to customize the test criteria
to which the verification must be tested. The test criteria can be set for each of the flow
conditions discussed above.
No flow limit
