Transmitter
The transmitter reads the measured process values from the sensor and calculates derived
values. It provides up to five configurable I/Os, fieldbus communication MODBUS, USB
service channel, and a local display. It also adds functionalities such as totalizers, access
control, diagnostics, and configuration. The local user interface consists of a display and four
buttons for user interaction.
The transmitter has a modular design with discrete, replaceable electronic modules and
connection boards to maintain separation between functions and facilitate field service. All
modules are fully traceable and their provenance is included in the transmitter setup.
The SITRANS FST030 is available as:
Wall mount enclosure with internal DSL
