Introduction

Transportation and storage
NOTICE
Insufficient protection during storage
CAUTION
1.8 Transportation and storage
In order to protect plants, systems, machines and networks against cyber threats, it is
necessary to implement – and continuously maintain – a holistic, state-of-the-art industrial
security concept. Siemens’ products and solutions only form one element of such a concept.
Customer is responsible to prevent unauthorized access to its plants, systems, machines
and networks. Systems, machines and components should only be connected to the
enterprise network or the internet if and to the extent necessary and with appropriate security
measures (e.g. use of firewalls and network segmentation) in place.
Additionally, Siemens’ guidance on appropriate security measures should be taken into
account. For more information about industrial security, please visit:
http://www.siemens.com/industrialsecurity.
Siemens’ products and solutions undergo continuous development to make them more
secure. Siemens strongly recommends to apply product updates as soon as available and to
always use the latest product versions. Use of product versions that are no longer supported,
and failure to apply latest updates may increase customer’s exposure to cyber threats.
To stay informed about product updates, subscribe to the Siemens Industrial Security RSS
Feed under
http://www.siemens.com/industrialsecurity.
To guarantee sufficient protection during transport and storage, observe the following:
● Keep the original packaging for subsequent transportation.
● Devices/replacement parts should be returned in their original packaging.
● If the original packaging is no longer available, ensure that all shipments are properly
packaged to provide sufficient protection during transport. Siemens cannot assume
liability for any costs associated with transportation damages.
The packaging only provides limited protection against moisture and infiltration.
• Provide additional packaging as necessary.
Special conditions for storage and transportation of the device are listed in Technical data
(Page 115).
Protection of transmitter parts
The styrofoam parts in the transmitter are NOT packaging material.
• Do not remove styrofoam parts.

• Connect the device with type of protection "Intrinsic safety" solely to an intrinsically safe
circuit.
• Observe the specifications for the electrical data on the certificate and/or in Technical
data (Page 115).
In general, it is required that:
● The terminal space may be opened when an explosive gas or dust atmosphere may be
present at any time. Access power terminals by lifting the cover only when de-energized.
● Appropriate cable connectors are used.
● Substitution of components may impair Intrinsic Safety.
● Sensor and transmitter are connected to the potential equalization throughout the
hazardous area.

Features
SITRANS F US ultrasonic flow meter systems consist of a transmitter and a sensor. The
following table lists the available combinations of transmitters and sensors.
FST030 FSS200
The transmitter reads the measured process values from the sensor and calculates derived
values. It provides up to five configurable I/Os, fieldbus communication MODBUS, USB
service channel, and a local display. It also adds functionalities such as totalizers, access
control, diagnostics, and configuration. The local user interface consists of a display and four
buttons for user interaction.
The transmitter has a modular design with discrete, replaceable electronic modules and
connection boards to maintain separation between functions and facilitate field service. All
modules are fully traceable and their provenance is included in the transmitter setup.
The SITRANS FST030 is available as:

This chapter describes how to install the wall mount enclosure transmitter.
The wall mount enclosure version can be mounted either on a wall, on a pipe, or in panels,
see Wall mount housing transmitter (Page 28).
SITRANS F flowmeters with minimum IP67/NEMA 4X enclosure rating are suitable for indoor
and outdoor installations.
If applicable, make sure that specifications for rated process pressure (PS) and medium
temperature (TS) plus ambient temperature that are indicated on the device nameplate /
label will not be exceeded.
Ensure that the device is suitable for the application and that it is installed where there is no
risk of penetration of aggressive vapors.
Prevent the device from overheating or materials becoming brittle due to UV exposure by
protecting it from direct sunlight. Make sure that the maximum permissible ambient
temperature is not exceeded. Refer to the information in Technical data (Page 115).
Risk of explosion. May cause death or serious injury.
Special requirements apply to the location and installation of the device. See Installation in
hazardous areas (Page 20).
