Specifications: The document includes pressure/temperature ratings, capacity tables, and specifications for 4-20mA with HART transmitters. It details the design features such as analog output for flow rate, digital communication, and alarm outputs.
Design Features: The transmitter offers flexible units of measure, two flow totalizers, and user-configurable pulse output. It supports HART digital communication and is powered by a 2-wire connection.
Electrical Specifications: The document specifies power supply voltage, current consumption, and alarm output characteristics. It also includes details on temperature and voltage influence on performance.
Optional Features: Optional valves, flow controllers, and electronic features like inductive alarms and Foundation Fieldbus transmitters are available. The document provides model code nomenclature for these options.
Approval Certificates: The document lists various product approvals and certifications, including SIL, NAMUR, and IP ratings. It also mentions compliance with ATEX and IECEx standards.
Safety and Standards: The document highlights explosion safety features, flameproof standards, and special conditions for safe use. It specifies the standards used for evaluation and conditions for electrical connections.
Specifications and Standards: The document outlines various certifications and standards for explosion safety, including ATEX, IECEx, and others. It specifies the temperature classes and ambient temperature limits for different equipment types, such as Ex db IIC and Ex tb IIIC, with temperature ranges from T6 to T1 and T85°C to T450°C.
Special Conditions for Safe Use: Equipment must be installed to prevent ignition sources from electrostatic discharge sparks. The actual maximum surface temperature depends on the operating conditions of the process fluid/gas. Installation instructions specify the need for gradual pressure increase to avoid damage.
Approval Certificates: The document lists various approval certificates for meters, transmitters, and alarms, including DEKRA, NEPSI, and others. It details the standards used for evaluation, such as EN 60079 and IEC 60079 series.
Temperature Limits: Tables provide detailed ambient and process temperature limits for different housing types and alarm configurations. Specific temperature classes are associated with each configuration.
Electrical Data - Intrinsic Safety: Details on electronics configuration, including function/signal, voltage, current, and recommended barriers, are provided for various circuits.
Model Code: Sample standard model codes are provided, with notes on compliance with ASME and ASTM standards.
Service and Support: Brooks Instrument offers global repair facilities, start-up services, in-situ calibration, and customer training seminars to ensure optimal performance and compliance with international standards.

MT3809 Series-1

DATA SHEET Variable Area MT3809G Series Metal Tube Variable Area Flow Meters MT3809G General Purpose Housing Brooks ® MT3809 meter operation is based on the variable area principle. The all metal meter is ideal for a variety of gas, liquid and steam applications. These meters are indispensable where high pressure and/or high temperature operating conditions exist. The primary meter is available in 316/316L stainless steel as well as with a PTFE liner. But a wide range of corrosion resistant materials of construction are available which makes it a perfect fit for metering of aggressive applications. A broad range of connection sizes and types such as ASME, DIN and JIS flange choices along with several threaded options provide for flexible installations. The very popular mechanical indicator option does not require power which reduces installation costs and is a cost-effective solution for flow measurement in hazardous areas. Optional accessories available includes transmitter with 4-20 mA analog output with HART ® communications or Foundation TM Fieldbus communications with or without configurable alarms and pulse output for totalization. Also available are front adjustable inductive alarms, high temperature or stainless steel indicator housings, valves, flow controllers and certifications. Product Description The Brooks Model MT3809 has been the “go to” meter for several years and the choice of Engineering & Procurement Contractors (EPC) and major industrial customers. Brooks is proud to raise the performance of the standard meter by adding these new features and options: • Transmitter with 4-20mA/HART-7, or transmitter with FoundationTM Fieldbus Communications • Local Operator Interface with LCD display without removing the cover which means changes can be made even in hazardous areas • 316SS flameproof housing that meets IIC/Class 1 Div 1 to handle the toughest hazardous applications • The broadest range of operating temperatures in the industry, the perfect meter for difficult applications • Lower flow rates with the current lay lengths which means one meter style can be used for very low to high flow rates • The new meter is designed to ASME B31.3 and the gasket sealing surface is per ASME, a rugged design that does not require special gaskets at installation • Weldneck flanges are standard for MT3809 and MT3810 which means full penetration welds that can easily be tested for integrity • Mechanical and alarm design that meets SIL 2 requirements View MT3809G Series Product Page
