ProcessMaster FEP630 Electromagnetic flowmeter

Product catalog summary
Overview
The ABB ProcessMaster FEP630 is an electromagnetic flowmeter designed for industrial applications, offering advanced diagnostics and remote configuration capabilities. It supports communication protocols like EtherNet/IP and ProfiNet, facilitating easy integration and monitoring.
Specifications
The FEP630 series is suitable for various industries, including chemical, power, mining, pulp & paper, oil & gas, and food & beverage. It handles a wide range of media with minimum conductivity of 5 μS/cm and temperatures up to 180°C. The flowmeter offers high accuracy (0.4% with options for 0.2%) and supports nominal diameters from DN 3 to 2000.
Features
  • Diagnostics: Includes gas bubble detection, partial filling detection, and electrode impedance monitoring.
  • Health Check: On-board fingerprint technology for sensor and transmitter integrity verification.
  • Noise/Grounding Check: Ensures proper installation and grounding.
  • Service Monitoring: Provides notifications for service intervals.
  • Backwards Compatibility: Allows seamless upgrades without changing existing setups.
Optional Functions
  • Filling Function: Configurable filling processes with digital input/output for precise control.
  • Extended Diagnostics: Includes conductivity monitoring and gas bubble alarms.
Design and Approvals
The flowmeter is available in integral and remote mount designs, with various housing options for different environmental conditions. It complies with multiple international standards, including ATEX, IECEx, and FM for hazardous areas.
Installation and Operation
The flowmeter requires specific installation conditions, including upstream and downstream straight sections. It supports a maximum signal cable length of 200 meters for remote installations. The device's accuracy and repeatability are highlighted, with detailed error margins provided for different configurations.
Additional Features
The document notes the availability of an Ethernet card for certain zones, affecting temperature ratings. It also specifies the IP degree of protection and permitted pipe vibration levels, ensuring robust performance in various industrial settings.
Inlet and Outlet Sections
The document discusses the importance of maintaining a proper flow profile for accurate measurements with the electromagnetic flowmeter. Recommendations include not installing fittings or valves directly before the sensor and ensuring straight inlet and outlet sections of 3 × DN and 2 × DN respectively.
Free Inlet or Outlet
For free outflow, the flowmeter should not be installed at the highest point of the piping to prevent the measuring tube from running empty and creating air bubbles.
Mounting with Contaminated Media
In cases of heavily contaminated measuring media, a bypass line is recommended to allow continuous operation during mechanical cleaning.
Grounding
The flowmeter sensor must be grounded to the same potential as the measuring medium. For plastic or insulated pipelines, ground plates should be installed.
Mounting with Pipe Vibration
Flexible damping devices should be used to dampen strong vibrations in the pipeline.
Device Design and Dimensions
The dimensions of the device vary based on the design and explosion protection requirements. For standard sensor designs without explosion protection, dimensions F and F1 are 0, while high-temperature designs add 127 mm (5 in) to both dimensions.
Flowmeter Specifications
The ProcessMaster FEP630 Electromagnetic Flowmeter is available in flange sizes DN 25 to 400 with aluminum sensor housing. It supports both integral and remote mount designs.
Transmitter Features
Includes a 4 to 20 mA current output, configurable alarm current output, and a configurable measuring range. Supports programmable digital outputs and optional plug-in cards for additional inputs/outputs.
Environmental and Physical Specifications
IP protection is rated at IP 65 / IP 67, NEMA 4X, with vibration resistance according to EN 60068-2-6.
Electrical Connections
Includes connections for power supply, inputs, and outputs, with detailed grounding instructions provided in the commissioning or operating instructions.
Digital Communication
The flowmeter supports PROFIBUS DP and PA communication with specific guidelines on bus topology, cable lengths, and node configurations. EtherNet/IP and ProfiNet protocols are also supported.
System Integration
Users can download necessary GSD files from ABB's website. The integration process involves selecting the appropriate functions using the 'Ident Nr. Selector' parameter.
Operation in Hazardous Zones
The flowmeter is suitable for use in Zone 1 and 21, with specific electrical data provided for devices with HART protocol.
Ordering Information
The document provides detailed ordering information for the ProcessMaster FEP632 and the remote transmitter FET632. It includes specifications for pressure bearing parts, sensor housing materials, configuration types, transmitter software function packages, calibration types, signal cable lengths, and device identification plates.
