Coriolis flow transmitter with measurement ­insight

November 2014 Mass Measurement

Emerson Process Management has introduced the Micro Motion Model 5700 transmitter, a Coriolis flow transmitter designed to translate measurement data into meaningful insight and instruction. The instrument is applicable for a broad range of applications, from liquid and gas custody transfer to simple process control.

“The Model 5700 transmitter was developed using Emerson’s human centred design approach to technology innovation,” says product manager Jason Leapley. “We performed usability testing to understand user information demands and real-world application requirements. Every feature of the new transmitter was designed to reduce the time and expertise needed to install and operate the meter.”

“The Model 5700 moves beyond just providing more data and instead focuses on delivering useable information to provide even deeper process insight from Micro Motion Coriolis measurement,” says Bill Graber, Emerson’s vice president of marketing for the Micro Motion business. “The result empowers customers to leverage rich Coriolis measurement data in order to understand and improve their operating environments and achieve new levels of productivity.”

The Model 5700 provides users access to detailed measurement history for troubleshooting or optimising the process. The graphical user interface was designed for intuitive operation, with simplified installation, configuration, maintenance and troubleshooting. The new transmitter translates Coriolis measurement data into useful operating insight through robust, time-stamped history files for process and meter health data, and logs for configuration changes and alarms.

The digital signal processing architecture provides fast flow response time, making it optimal for custody transfer proving and short batching applications. The historian feature also improves Micro Motion Smart Meter Verification, which provides measurement of the full meter health without process interruption – improving measurement confidence and easing regulation compliance.

Compatible with new and previously installed Micro Motion ELITE Coriolis sensors, the Model 5700 has a field-mount design that is suitable with most hazardous area installation practices and with both integral and remote installation options. It currently includes options for analogue, pulse, discrete and Modbus outputs and an analogue or HART input.
