Two-Wire Coriolis Meter Provides a Solution for Loop-powered Flow Points Throughout the Plant

Sept. 3, 2008

Emerson Process Management announces the first two-wire Micro Motion Coriolis meter, expanding the value of Coriolis to a wide range of applications that require loop-powered flow devices. The Coriolis meters are especially valuable for upgrading older loop-powered technologies to Elite Coriolis meters without adding more power or installing new cabling.

Having benefited from Coriolis technology in the past, process engineers and managers have wanted a meter they could use more broadly. The two-wire Micro Motion Coriolis is an ideal solution for loop-powered flow points throughout the plant where the process can benefit from increased accuracy and reliability.

The two-wire meter delivers measurement accuracy, repeatability and operational savings on a level not previously possible for flow loops with older flow measurement technologies. The meter delivers +0.10% liquid flow and +0.0005 g/cm3 liquid density accuracy in continuous process and mass balance applications. It has no moving parts and requires no maintenance.

The two-wire Micro Motion 2200S transmitter can be used with a range of Micro Motion Elite Coriolis sensor sizes and materials of construction to deliver measurement performance for continuous process applications. Suitable for integral or extended mount, the loop powered design makes for seamless integration into existing control systems and is ideal for long wiring runs and applications in hazardous areas.

Equipped with MVD digital processing technology, the Micro Motion 2200S transmitter delivers multivariable and diagnostic information via HART communications for reduced costs through improved process consistency and maximized uptime. Front-end digital processing dramatically reduces signal noise and gives you a faster response time compared to analog devices. Micro Motion two-wire Coriolis is suited for use in the chemical, petrochemical and refining industries and for continuous process and mass balance applications.

The Model 2200S transmitter is suitable for a range of process conditions and has CSA Class1 Division 1 or 2 approvals and ATEX, IECEx, NEPSI Zone 1 and Zone 2 approvals. To facilitate installation in hazardous areas, Micro Motion offers an adapter barrier and is compatible with a range of third-party barrier devices. The Micro Motion Model 2200S is also available with an optional 316L stainless steel enclosure suited for harsh environments, such as applications in the offshore and marine industries.
