Rosemount 8600 Vortex Flow Meter
3.2.4
Wetted material selection
Ensure the process fluid is compatible with the meter body wetted materials when
specifying the Rosemount 8600D. Corrosion will shorten the life of the meter body. Consult
recognized sources of corrosion data or contact your Rosemount Sales Representative for
more information.
Note
For accurate results perform a Positive Material Identification (PMI) test on a machined
surface.
3.2.5
Environmental considerations
Avoid excessive heat and vibration to ensure maximum flowmeter life. Typical problem
areas include high-vibration lines with integrally mounted electronics, warm-climate
installations in direct sunlight, and outdoor installations in cold climates.
Although the signal conditioning functions reduce susceptibility to extraneous noise, some
environments are more suitable than others. Avoid placing the flowmeter or its wiring close to
devices that produce high intensity electromagnetic and electrostatic fields. Such devices
include electric welding equipment, large electric motors and transformers, and
communication transmitters.
3.3
Hazardous locations
The Rosemount 8600D has an explosion-proof housing and circuitry suitable for
intrinsically safe and non-incendive operation. Individual transmitters are clearly marked
with a tag indicating the certifications they carry.
3.4
Hardware configuration
The hardware jumpers on the Rosemount 8600D enable you to set the alarm and security.
(See
.) To access the jumpers, remove the electronics housing cover from the
electronics end of the Rosemount 8600D. If your Rosemount 8600D includes an LCD
option, the alarm and security jumpers are found on the face of the LCD indicator. (See
.)
Note
If you will be changing configuration variables frequently, it may be useful to leave the
security lockout jumper in the OFF position to avoid exposing the flowmeter electronics to
the plant environment.
