Emerson Rosemount 8712EM Wall Mount Magnetic Flow Meter Transmitter

Emerson has introduced the Rosemount 8712EM Wall Mount Magnetic Flow Meter Transmitter with additional protocols, powerful diagnostic capabilities and usability features to help users in the water and wastewater, metals and mining, and other industries gain quick and easy insight into their processes. The meter’s local operator interface was designed using human-centred design concepts, making it quick and easy for technicians to navigate in the field.

The product’s diagnostic suite includes high process noise detection and ground fault detection. The electrode coating diagnostic offers two setpoints to alert users when coating is present and when it is affecting flow measurement, enabling preventive maintenance. Smart Meter Verification continuously monitors the health and performance of the meter for measurement confidence.

Universal transmitter capability allows the device to operate with any existing magnetic flow meter sensor and allows backwards compatibility with all Rosemount magnetic sensors. This feature not only makes the transmitter easy to integrate with older units, it also enables the use of its advanced diagnostic features.

The product supports HART 7 for 32-character-long tag capability for reduced start-up time, as well as options for intrinsically safe HART outputs and Modbus RS485.
