Recently, the 1700 Series single-variable field-mounted flow transmitters from Emerson's Micro Motion brand have continued to be a popular choice for mass flow measurement in the process industry, thanks to their stable and reliable performance and flexible application adaptability. As a core component of Coriolis flowmeters, this series of transmitters is powered by MVD digital processing technology, providing precise flow, density, and concentration measurement solutions for industries such as petrochemicals, food and beverage, and pharmaceuticals.
Core Performance and Technical Highlights.
1. Precise Direct Measurement, Unaffected by Process Fluctuations
Based on the Coriolis measurement principle, the 1700 transmitter directly measures mass flow without relying on temperature or pressure compensation. It achieves a measurement accuracy of ±0.15% of flow rate and zero-point stability as high as ±0.05%. Unaffected by changes in medium viscosity or density, it ensures data reliability even under complex conditions such as gas-entrained fluids or empty-to-full batch operations, thanks to MVD technology that enables performance diagnostics and stable output.
2. Flexible Installation, Suitable for Diverse Applications
Supports both integrated and split-type installations. Field-installable models feature a polyurethane-coated cast aluminum housing (stainless steel available as an option), certified to ATEX and IECEx explosion-proof standards, with an IP66/IP67 protection rating to withstand harsh industrial environments. The standard 2-line LCD local interface, paired with dual optical buttons, allows for commissioning without complex programming, significantly lowering the barrier to on-site operation.
3. Efficient Operation and Maintenance, Reducing Total Cost of Ownership
Supports intelligent self-calibration, allowing online assessment of sensor health without interrupting production, thereby extending calibration intervals and reducing downtime. Additionally, the transmitter features a 4-wire interface, simplifying wiring design and lowering installation costs. It can simultaneously output multiple parameters-including mass flow, volumetric flow, density, and temperature-eliminating the need for additional measurement instruments and enhancing system integration efficiency.
Application Scenarios and Industry Value
The 1700 Series transmitters are widely applicable to various industrial fluid measurement scenarios: in the chemical industry, they enable precise measurement of high-viscosity media and corrosive fluids; in the food and pharmaceutical sectors, they meet the requirements for batch control and formula blending in sanitary-grade production processes; in energy trading scenarios, they facilitate trade handover certification, providing authoritative data support for metering and settlement.
The model arriving this shipment is 1700R15ABFMZZZ. The sensor's serial number is traceable, and the device comes with an original factory pairing label to ensure compatibility between the transmitter and sensor, avoiding on-site commissioning delays and providing users with reliable, out-of-the-box performance.
