(1) Instrument Overview

The new SITRANS FMT020 electromagnetic flow transmitter is a high-performance, rugged, and durable intelligent product designed to meet various process applications requiring precise and reliable measurement of conductive medium flow. The SITRANS FMT020 is the new generation product in the proven MAG 5000 and MAG 6000 transmitter series. The FMT020 retains all the unique features of this transmitter series, such as a flexible installation concept, with a universal housing suitable for both integrated and split installations. It also retains a modular design, allowing easy replacement of transmitters, additional communication modules, or Sensorprom storage units for fast communication, real-time measurement, and data storage. Additionally, the FMT020 can simultaneously measure volumetric flow rate, medium flow rate, and conductivity. It also offers enhanced diagnostic functions such as air tube monitoring and equipment self-inspection, and is equipped with multifunctional input/output channels for process control and a unified operating concept:

(2) Product Features

• Backward compatibility with older (up to 15 years old) electromagnetic flowmeter sensors (MAG5100W)

• Quick startup without zero adjustment

• Multiple functions are available for comprehensive equipment inspection, self-diagnosis, and onboard verification
