Rosemount 8712EM wall-mount magnetic flow meter transmitter

Emerson has introduced the Rosemount 8712EM wall-mount magnetic flow meter transmitter with additional protocols, more 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 easier and faster for technicians to navigate in the field.

The Rosemount 8712EM’s diagnostic suite includes high process noise detection and ground fault detection. The electrode coating diagnostic offers two setpoints to alert 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 greater measurement confidence.

Universal transmitter capability allows the 8712EM 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 easier to integrate with older units, but it also adds the 8712EM’s advanced diagnostic features to those existing meters.

The Rosemount 8712EM supports HART 7 with 32-character tag capability for reduced start-up time, as well as options for intrinsically safe HART outputs and Modbus RS485.
