DatasheetMode of operation
The flow measuring principle is based on Faraday’s law of electromagnetic
induction according to which the sensor converts
the flow into an electrical voltage proportional to the velocity of
the flow.
Integration
The complete flowmeter consists of a flow sensor and an associated
transmitter SITRANS FM MAG 5000, 6000 or 6000 I. The
flexible communication concept USM II simplifies integration
and update to a variety of fieldbus systems such as HART,
FOUNDATION Fieldbus H1, DeviceNet, PROFIBUS DP and PA,
Modbus RTU/RS 485.
