Cut Monitor with HART® Communication

The CM-3 Cut Monitor can be used to indicate the effectiveness of your well testers, freewater knockouts, heater treaters and other separation vessels with a precise digital readout of water percentage from 0 to 50%.

This information can also be used on a "LACT" unit to divert "wet " oil for additional processing/ separation, with ranges as low as one percent.

The transmitter is factory-calibrated for each application and can be adjusted for seasonal product and temperature changes using proprietary One-Shot calibration trim. The sensing element is designed for easy installation through a tee in a vertical section of pipe, which allows for simple removal without having to drain the lines.

For higher utility and reliability at a lower installed cost, look to the CM-3 Cut Monitor for indication of the water content (or "B.S.&W.") in crude oil or refined products.

The Drexelbrook CM-3 transmitter is a two-wire instrument that employs the HART® protocol for communication and calibration. The unique PC interface features Realtyme-Vue™ for diagnosis and One-Shot™ calibration. Highly conductive water cannot cause a "low water"(unsafe failure) indication.

• Digital, local indication

No insulation on 316 S.S. sensor to blister, peel, or abrade. Measurement not affected by ambient temperature changes. All solid-state design reduces repair, recalibration and downtime.

Transmitter design minimizes the effect of paraffin build-up on the sensing element. Simplifies and reduces cleaning requirements. No need to drain lines to remove or clean the sensing element. Simple mounting requirements results in a low installation cost. Full-Flo™ geometry includes the entire volume in the measurement.

Transmitter combines the basic capacitance principles used in this application for the past 50 years, with modern RF technology that has been proven successful at major industrial facilities for over three decades. The addition of digital processing and memory allows for linear ranges of 0-30%and 0-50%water-in-oil.
