Description

The Panametrics XMT868i Ultrasonic Flow Transmitter combines state-of-the-art flow measurement capability with a low-cost transmitter package that can be installed right at the process measurement point. The XMT868i carries appropriate certification for for installation in hazardous (classified) locations commonly found in petrochemical and chemical processing environments.

The all-digital XMT868i has no moving parts, requires minimal maintenance and provides long-term, drift-free operation. An on-board microprocessor provides exclusive digital signal coding and correlation detection routines, automatic adjustment to changing fluid properties, and dynamically-configured operating software to simplify programming.

The DigitalFlow XMT868i introduces an infrared six-button keypad to allow safe programming and diagnostics verification in your hazardous (classified) location. There is no need to open the case to use a PC to program and no need for an additional handheld programmer. Just touch the glass of the XMT868i and the IR buttons will sense your touch. If you prefer your PC interface, the DigitalFlow XMT868i maintains its RS232 capability, providing full access to the meter's diagnostics and programming using PanaView software. PanaView also provides continuous logging capability.

The optional dual-channel/dual-path model can be user configured for a variety of applications. It can be set up to measure flow in two separate pipes with one meter to reduce the cost-per-measurement point.

To minimize the effects of flow profile distortions, flow swirl and cross flow, and for maximum accuracy, you can install the two sets of transducers on the same pipe.
