3 x 100% diagnosticsOPTIFLUX overcomes the drawbacks of some SIL2-certified equipment:

detects errors unrecognised under SIL2

indicates erroneous results in the application(e.g. because of gas bubbles), which SIL2 cannot do

show up errors in accuracy and linearity, again unseen by SIL2

The 3 x 100% diagnostics in OPTIFLUX is, therefore,much better for you than a normal SIL2 certifiedmeter.

One for all applicationsWith just one signal converter and the widest rangeof flow sensors, the new OPTIFLUX cover all applica-tions, from a simple water measurement to corrosiveor abrasive products or even pulp in the paperindustry. Simplified engineering, procurement andinventory lead to cost-savings for the user.

This new concept marks a new era, and is the resultof more than 40 years experience in electromagneticflowmetering.

Sets new standards in electromagnetic flowmeteringUsing brand new technology has enabled us toincrease the measuring performance of OPTIFLUXeven further. These improvements are particularlyuseful where todays meters begin to capitulate.Examples of this include very low conductivity,measurement of rapid product changes with corres-ponding changes in pH or the measurement of pulpin the paper industry.

This increase in performance was possible by a 30-fold improvement in the measuring techno-logy components. Here we exploited all known optimization potentials.

The new unique inbuilt diagnosticsThe new inbuilt diagnostics not only fulfil theNAMUR guidelines, they exceed them by far. Thenew converter can check and detect whether it isstill within its specifications or has been correctlyinstalled.The 3 x 100% diagnostics consist of:

100% ApplicationsDiagnosticsA working group led by NAMUR - consisting ofrepresentatives and users - analysed all measuringtechnologies. They defined for each one the applica-tion problems that an optimum meter would beable to detect.The list highlighted here on the right shows thoseapplication problems, as well as some additionalones integrated into OPTIFLUX.The indications given by OPTIFLUX together with apossible exclusion diagnosis by the user will cer-tainly help you to conclude what the problem is inthe application.

100% Out-of-specDiagnosticsThe OPTIFLUX checks periodically whether it is stillworking to within its specifications.The following is checked:

the accuracy by feeding in a test signal

the linearity of the meter

the accuracy of the field current used to generate the magnetic field

The test results can be viewed at any time usingHART and KROHNEs new PACTware tool, and aVerification Certificate can be printed out. There isno longer any need for time-consuming verificationmeasurements.

100% Meter DiagnosticsDiagnostics normally refers to the meters diagnostics, which in the case of OPTIFLUXcovers all these items:

Microprocessor test

Software test

Memory test

Electronics temperature test

Output tests for interruption, and the correct load

OPTIFLUX sets new new standards inflow measurementCustody transfer is standard

The standard instrument itself fulfils the highdemands on accuracy and reproducibility. Togetherwith its comprehensive diagnostics this makes it predestined for custody transfer applications.

Highest accuracy - Now as good as 0.15% of the measured value

The optimized measuring technology behind OPTIFLUX and the new highly effective screening in the sensor lead to an

accuracy of 0,15% and a

reproducibility of 0,06%

These improvements make OPTIFLUX enormouslyreliable in the presence of

high bubble content

high solids content

turbulent flow

New conductivity measurement

The new conductivity measurement in OPTIFLUXopens up brand new applications, such as:

detection of product change or

quality management of cleaning processes

In many cases a separate conductivity meter is nolonger needed.

Approvals Everything you need

OPTIFLUX offers a wealth of approvals:

from custody transfer to OIML and KIWA

from Ex such as ATEX, FM, CSA, SAA and more

for hygienic applications with 3A, EHEDG, FDA

So you can use OPTIFLUX worldwide for all applications.

OPTIFLUX One forall applicationsThe new converter is a multi-talent

In a recent BASF expertise they wrote, The construc-tion of the new converter electronics of the IFC 300deserves particular praise. For the first time a con-verter has been successfully built that can not onlybe used in all applications but it also comes invarious housings from compact to field remote towall-mounted. Compatibility to already installed,older meters is built-in.

Standard or costly extra?

Designed to satisfy, also means we build all the functionalities into the standard instrument at noextra cost. Whether its the new large-size completelygraphical display, the 3 x 100% diagnostics or thecustody transfer. Its all standard.

Your I/O combination is also available

The vast array of I/O combinations is bound to fulfilyour needs whether you need a current output,active or passive, Ex i or non-Ex, pulse output orstatus input or output, HART, PA, DP, FF and allI/O are galvanically separated.

OPTIFLUX has it all.

Optimized installation and service concept

As soon as you wire up the meter, you notice thedifference. Everything goes that much quicker andeasier. Even if the electronics really do need to bereplaced, simple swap the entire cassette withoutfiddling about with EPROMs or PCBs, and start themeter with all the current settings retained.

... with all thesefeatures:

For high reliability and lowest conductivity

OPTIFLUX 7300 C, electrode-free, with capacitive signal pick up for products down to 0.05 S/cm.

Secondary Containment

OPTIFLUX 4000 up to 40 bar.

For process temperatures up to 180C even for Ex

All liners available from hardrubber to PFAto ceramic

From DN 2.5 to 3000

Always the right meter ...

... the widest range means you always get the best meter.
