Electromagnetic flowmeter ProcessMaster FEP500 for more precision and safety


ABB introduces the ProcessMaster FEP500, its latest electromagnetic flowmeter for the process industry, to enlarge its well-proven product family. In addition to its enhanced diagnostic information, higher measuring accuracy and explosion protection to ATEX, IEC, FM, CSA and NEPSI, the ProcessMaster FEP500 offers various communication protocols: HART, Profibus PA or FOUNDATION Fieldbus. This allows for comfortable access to all device and process status information.

 

Using its advanced diagnostic functions, the ProcessMaster FEP500 monitors its own operability, e.g. by detecting gas bubbles or deposits on its electrodes, and your process. Gradual changes are recorded and stored in the device as trends. The integral conductivity monitoring function further extends these possibilities. Access to the status information and trends is obtained via the easy-touse ScanMaster verification and evaluation software that cyclically monitors the measuring values and functionality of the instruments installed.

 

The determined test results are stored in a database and can be retrieved and printed at any time. Cyclic monitoring of the installed instrumentation is a main customer concern to meet the increasing requirements in terms of quality management and quality auditing. ABB’s ScanMaster is the optimum solution for this challenge.

 

ProcessMaster FEP300 is the flowmeter with basic functionality. In addition to the high-end electromagnetic flowmeter ProcessMaster FEP500, ABB offers the standard model ProcessMaster FEP300 with basic functionality.

 

ABB’s ProcessMaster series of flowmeters is successfully used in the chemical, power, water and waste water, oil and gas, pulp and paper, metal and machine construction industries. The instrument design offers the industry’s widest range of sizes, liners, materials and process connections. The ProcessMaster series provides maximum safety and reliability and very short response times. The especially powerful transmitter can be intuitively operated even by inexperienced users, due to its product-spanning operating concept. Additionally, it has a bright, backlit display.

 

When integrated into an asset management system like the Asset Master from ABB by using the FDT/DTM technology, the ProcessMaster considerably contributes to optimal monitoring of your plant to improve the productivity and profitability and helps you get the most out of your investment over the entire product lifecycle.
