Measurement support Prerequisites Before performing a field zero, execute the Zero Verification procedure to see whether or not a field zero can improve measurement accuracy. See Section 2.6. Important Do not verify the zero or zero the flowmeter if a high-severity alarm is active. Correct the problem, then verify the zero or zero the flowmeter. You may verify the zero or zero the flowmeter if a lowseverity alarm is active. 9.2.
Measurement support The display reports CAL PASS if the zero was successful, or CAL FAIL if it was not. Postrequisites Restore normal flow through the sensor by opening the valves. Need help? If the zero fails: • Ensure that there is no flow through the sensor, then retry. • Remove or reduce sources of electromechanical noise, then retry. • Set Zero Time to a lower value, then retry. • If the zero continues to fail, contact Micro Motion.
Measurement support Zero Time controls the amount of time the transmitter takes to determine its zeroflow reference point. The default Zero Time is 20 seconds. For most applications, the default Zero Time is appropriate. 5. Click Perform Auto Zero. The Calibration in Progress light will turn red during the zero procedure. At the end of the procedure: • If the zero procedure was successful, the Calibration in Progress light returns to green and a new zero value is displayed.
Measurement support e. Observe the drive gain, temperature, and density readings. If they are stable, check the Live Zero or Field Verification Zero value. If the average value is close to 0, you should not need to zero the flowmeter. 2. Press Service Tools > Maintenance > Zero Calibration > Perform Auto Zero. 3. Modify Zero Time, if desired. Zero Time controls the amount of time the transmitter takes to determine its zeroflow reference point. The default Zero Time is 20 seconds.
Measurement support Overview Meter validation compares flowmeter measurements reported by the transmitter to an external measurement standard. If the transmitter value for mass flow, volume flow, or density measurement is significantly different from the external measurement standard, you may want to adjust the corresponding meter factor. The flowmeter’s actual measurement is multiplied by the meter factor, and the resulting value is reported and used in further processing.
Measurement support 3. Configure the meter factor in the transmitter. Example: Calculating the meter factor for mass flow The flowmeter is installed and validated for the first time. The mass flow measurement from the transmitter is 250.27 lb. The mass flow measurement from the reference device is 250 lb. The mass flow meter factor is calculated as follows: MeterFactorMassFlow = 1 x 250 = 0.9989 250.27 The first meter factor for mass flow is 0.9989. One year later, the flowmeter is validated again.
Measurement support 9.4 3. Ensure that the calculated meter factor is between 0.8 and 1.2, inclusive. If the meter factor is outside these limits, contact Micro Motion customer service. 4. Configure the meter factor for volume flow in the transmitter. Perform a (standard) D1 and D2 density calibration Density calibration establishes the relationship between the density of the calibration fluids and the signal produced at the sensor.

If you want to change its behavior, consider the following options: • Change the setting of mA Output Fault Action. • For the relevant status alarms, change the setting of Alarm Severity to Ignore. 3. 10.19 If there are no active fault conditions, continue troubleshooting.
Troubleshooting 2. 10.22 If you changed the setting of Frequency Output Scaling Method, check the settings of all other frequency output parameters. Check Frequency Output Fault Action The Frequency Output Fault Action controls the behavior of the frequency output if the transmitter encounters an internal fault condition. If the frequency output is reporting a constant value, the transmitter may be in a fault condition. 1. Check the status alarms for active fault conditons. 2.
Troubleshooting Tip For typical applications, Micro Motion recommends setting Mass Flow Cutoff to the zero stability value for your sensor, multiplied by 10. Zero stabiliy values can be found in the Product Data Sheet for your sensor. 10.25 Check for slug flow (two-phase flow) Slug flow (two-phase flow, entrained gas) can cause spikes in the drive gain. This may cause the transmitter to report zero flow, or to post several different alarms. 1. Check for slug flow alarms.

Consult the installation manual for your sensor for recommended orientations.
Troubleshooting Overview Drive gain data can be used to diagnose a variety of process and equipment conditions. Collect drive gain data from a period of normal operation, and use this data as a baseline for troubleshooting. Procedure 10.27 1. Navigate to the drive gain data. 2. Observe and record drive gain data over an appropriate period of time, under a variety of process conditions.
Troubleshooting 10.27.1 Collect pickoff voltage data ProLink II ProLink > Diagnostic Information Field Communicator Service Tools > Maintenance > Diagnostic Variables Overview Pickoff voltage data can be used to diagnose a variety of process and equipment conditions. Collect pickoff voltage data from a period of normal operation, and use this data as a baseline for troubleshooting. Procedure 10.28 1. Navigate to the pickoff voltage data. 2.
Troubleshooting Procedure 1. Disconnect power to the transmitter. CAUTION! If the transmitter is in a hazardous area, wait 5 minutes before continuing. 2. Remove the transmitter housing cover. 3. Unplug the terminal blocks from the terminal board on the core processor. 4. Using a digital multimeter (DMM), check the pickoff coils by placing the DMM leads on the unplugged terminal blocks for each terminal pair. See Table 10-12 for a list of the coils. Record the values.
Troubleshooting 6. Test the resistance of junction box terminal pairs. a. Test the brown terminal against all other terminals except the red one. b. Test the red terminal against all other terminals except the brown one. c. Test the green terminal against all other terminals except the white one. d. Test the white terminal against all other terminals except the green one. e. Test the blue terminal against all other terminals except the gray one. f.
