New analytical sensors for the Bio-Pharm and Food industries have been introduced by Rosemount Analytical, for measurement of dissolved oxygen, pH and conductivity.
FISCO (Fieldbus Intrinsic Safety Concept) compliance enables more power to be made available in each fieldbus segment, allowing the connection of further devices in the hazardous area.
The advantage to the plant engineer is a simplified installation and less documentation needed to show the safety of the installation.
The Rosemount Analytical 5081 Foundation fieldbus compatibility enables full remote control room based data access with PlantWeb digital plant architecture.
AMS Suite: Intelligent Device Manager software allows commissioning and maintenance engineers to set up and configure the transmitter, and read further process variables using the fieldbus network.
Typically the extra process variables monitored include secondary sensor measurements, such as temperature elements integrated into the primary sensor, and used for automatic corrections on the primary process variable.
AMS Suite further allows remote interrogation of the intelligent sensor predictive diagnostics, such as the impedance measurement of the pH glass electrode membrane and the reference electrode, advising and predicting when sensors need attention or replacement.
The 5081 display features 20mm high digits that present the main process variable, and smaller digits displaying temperature, alarms, output signal and other sensor information.
The unit can be locally interrogated and configured using an infra-red controller, or alternatively by connection of an Emerson 375 handheld communicator.
