max-flux M1
__
Application domain
The
mag-flux M1
is a microprocessor controlled and program-
mable transmitter that can be customized using control unit
(option). Although basic configuration settings such as trans-
mitter calibration are realized at the factory, other settings such
as those for measurement data processing, analysis, display and
output are user definable.
Measurement data from sensors of series
mag-flux are p
rocessed
by the transmitter (hereinafter referred to as
mag-flux M1
)
.
It
can be installed directly on the sensor (compact version) or be
mounted separately (remote version) and it is designed for flow
velocities up to 10 m/s.
A remote version is available for sensor
mag-flux
A,
mag-flux
S,
mag-flux
F5 and also for probes
mag-flux
MIS 1/D and
mag-flux
MIS 2/15.
A compact version is only available for sensor
mag-flux
A.
The transmitter
mag-flux M1
is communication enabled and
supports optional the HART
®
protocol.

III. Repair
It is important that you do the following before shipping your
flowmeter to MECON GmbH for repair:
•
Enclose a description of the problem with your device.
Describe in as much detail as possible the application and
the physical and chemical properties of the fluid.
•
Remove any residues from the device and be sure to clean
the seal grooves and recesses thoroughly. This is
particularly important if the fluid is corrosive, toxic,
carcinogenic, radioactive or otherwise hazardous.
•
The operator is liable for any substance removal or personal
damage costs arising from inadequate cleaning of a device
that is sent for repair.
IV. Using HART
®
hand-held terminal
For information regarding operation of the transmitter using the
HART
hand-held terminal, see “Operation of the
mag-flux M1
transmitter using the HART
hand-held terminal.”

Steps prior to operation
It is essential that you read these operating
instructions before installing and operating
the device. The device is to be installed and
serviced by a qualified technician only. The
mag-flux M1
transmitter is to be used exclu-
sively to measure volume flow of liquids in
conjunction with a sensor of series
mag-flux
.
