New communication protocol available for these flowmeters
Krohne Messtechnik
Profinet I/O industrial Ethernet communication is now available for this company’s electromagnetic flowmeters and Coriolis mass flowmeters (photo). This includes all compact and field versions of the Optiflux x300 electromagnetic flowmeters and Optimass x400 Coriolis flowmeters. With Profinet I/O, all measuring, process and diagnostic information from the meters is available in realtime via a single communication channel, allowing for direct and convenient integration of new meters and direct identification of defective devices, as well as bidirectional communication and parameter setting. Also, the Optimass portfolio of mass flowmeters has been supplemented with large line sizes up to 16 in. (DN400). With this expansion, the company now offers a complete Coriolis portfolio for flowrates from 0.3 kg/h up to 4,600 ton/h. Hall 11.1, Stand A3 — Krohne Messtechnik GmbH, Duisburg, Germany
