About this manual
This instruction manual explains how to install the Micro Motion
®
Model
RFT9709 transmitter for use with Micro Motion Coriolis flow sensors. For
more information about the sensor, see the appropriate sensor
instruction manual.
About the transmitter
The Model RFT9709 transmitter is a microprocessor-based transmitter
for fluid process measurement. The transmitter works with Micro Motion
sensors to measure mass or volume flow, density, and temperature.
Components of the transmitter are illustrated on the following page.
Configuration and calibration
An RFT9709 transmitter and a sensor are ordered together as a Coriolis
flowmeter. The factory can provide any of three standard configuration
options:
• Gross volume, API table 5A
• Gross standard volume, API table 5A
• Not configured
For specific configuration details, see the calibration certificate that is
shipped with the sensor. To meet API requirements, the user must
supply an external RTD that is accurate to ±0.1°F. The external RTD
calibration must be configured in the transmitter. The factory can
configure the transmitter if the RTD calibration is provided.
Changes to the configuration are possible with a custom version of
Micro Motion’s ProLink
®
software program, designed specifically for the
RFT9709.
• The standard ProLink software cannot be used with the RFT9709.
Contact the factory for additional ProLink information.
• The Rosemount
®
hand-held HART
®
Communicator cannot be used
with the RFT9709.
CAUTION
Improper installation could cause measurement error
or transmitter failure.
For personal and system safety, follow all instructions to
ensure transmitter will operate correctly.
