26. Transmitters combine multi-parameter measurement for
Hazardous area applications
Mettmer Toledo – M400 2-Wire Series of Transmitters
On-site or remote sensor diagnostics tools lead to reduced operating costs and increased process
uptime
METTLER TOLEDO Process Analytics, a leading provider
of analytical measurement solutions, announces the
launch of the M400 2-wire, a series of transmitters for
liquid analytics and gas phase applications in the
chemical and chempharma industries. M400 2-wire
transmitters have global approvals for hazardous area
use, and combine multi-parameter measurement with
remote access to predictive sensor diagnostic tools over
HART communication protocol. The transmitter series
covers pH/ORP, dissolved oxygen, gas phase oxygen
and conductivity measurements.
METTLER TOLEDO has increased process reliability and
stability by integrating its proprietary Intelligent Sensor
Management (ISM) concept into the transmitter. ISM is
a digital sensor technology that simplifies sensor maintenance and handling, and reduces sensor
lifecycle costs. Central to the benefits of ISM is the availability of predictive sensor diagnostic tools.
These enable operators to easily determine any sensor maintenance required in advance of
performance being affected.
The possibility of remote access to sensor diagnostics over HART or the transmitter's second analog
output increases the communication capability and helps to avoid unplanned shutdowns. This leads
to improved productivity and a reduction in operating costs. In addition, the M400 2-wire series
includes a mixed-mode input for connection of either conventional analog sensors or METTLER
TOLEDO's digital ISM sensors. "The mixed-mode input offers a unique and smooth technology
transition from analog to digital sensors and provides a future oriented investment in the plant," says
Jürgen Illerhaus, head of product management at METTLER TOLEDO Process Analytics. "In
combination with the M400 2-wire series many other features it means the transmitter provides
operating assurance even in the most challenging conditions."
