Rosemount Model 8732C Integral Mount Magnetic Flowmeter System
5-2
TABLE 5-1. Basic Troubleshooting–Model 8732C.
Symptom
Potential Cause
Corrective Action
Output at 0 mA.
No power to transmitter.
Check power source and connections to the transmitter.
Analog output improperly
configured.
Check the analog power switch. See Hardware Switches on page 2-2 for
proper settings.
Electronics failure.
Replace the electronics boards.
Output at 4 mA.
Transmitter in multidrop mode.
Configure Poll Address to 0 to take transmitter out of multidrop mode.
Low Flow Cutoff set too high.
Configure Low Flow Cutoff to a lower setting or increase flow to a value
above the low flow cutoff.
Flow is in reverse direction.
Enable Reverse Flow function.
Shorted coil.
Coil check. Perform flowtube test A and B on page 5-5.
Empty pipe.
Fill pipe.
Electronics failure.
Replace the electronics boards.
Output at 21.6 mA.
Transmitter not ranged properly.
Reset the transmitter range values. See Lower Range Value (LRV) and
Upper Range Value (URV) on page 4-6.
Check tube size setting in transmitter and make sure it matches your
actual tube size. See Line Size on page 4-4.
Output at alarm level.
Electronics failure.
Cycle power. If alarm is still present, replace the electronics boards.
Pulse output at zero,
regardless of flow.
No power to transmitter.
Check power source and connection to the transmitter.
Wiring error.
Check pulse output wiring at digital output terminals. Refer to wiring
diagram for pulse output.
Reverse flow.
Enable Reverse Flow function.
Pulse width too wide or too narrow.
Reset Pulse Width. See Pulse Width on page 4-9.
Electronics failure.
Replace the electronics boards.
Communication problems with
the HART Communicator.
4–20 mA output configuration.
Check analog power switch (internal/external). HART Communicator
requires a 4–20 mA output to function.
Communication interface wiring
problems.
Incorrect load resistance (250
V
minimum).
Check appropriate wiring diagram in Appendix A.
Low batteries in the HART
Communicator.
Replace the batteries in the HART Communicator. See the communicator
manual for instructions.
Old revision of software in the
HART Communicator.
Consult your local sales office about updating to the latest
revision of software.
Error Messages on LOI
or HART Communicator
Many possible causes depending
upon the message.
See the Error Messages Table for the LOI (Table 3-3) or the Diagnostic
Messages for the HART Communicator (Table A-2).
