Several solutions for faults in Rosemount electromagnetic flowmeters

Thread Content

　　With the accelerated development of industrial modernization, Rosemount electromagnetic flowmeters are being used more and more widely in flow control and measurement in industrial production. Of course, Rosemount electromagnetic flowmeters are bound to experience some minor malfunctions during normal use. If such faults are not resolved promptly, they can cause significant losses and pose serious risks to production. Next, let the technical editor from Shaanxi HuiBo Electromechanical introduce to you several solutions for the faults of Rosemount electromagnetic flowmeters. 　　I. Resistance method 　　1. Continuity of the signal cable and excitation cable of the Rosemount electromagnetic flowmeter; 　　2. Continuity of the power fuse and excitation fuse of the flowmeter; 　　3. Resistance value of the flowmeter’s power transformer ； 　　4. The on/off status and resistance value of the excitation coil of the Rosemount electromagnetic flowmeter; 5. The insulation resistance of the electrodes with respect to ground; 6. Measurement of electrode symmetry; 7. The insulation resistance of the Rosemount electromagnetic flowmeter’s excitation coil with respect to ground. 　　II. Alternative methods, such as swapping the converter and amplification board of the flow meter. 　　III. Current method: measures the output current and excitation current of the Rosemount electromagnetic flowmeter. 　　IV. Waveform method: Test the waveforms of key points based on an understanding of the circuit. 　　V. Voltage method, to determine the operating power supply. 　　VI. Analog signal method: An analog signal generator is used to provide a flow signal in order to test the Rosemount electromagnetic flowmeter sensors. 　　If a Rosemount electromagnetic flowmeter stops working or begins to function improperly after being put into operation or after operating normally for some time, the first thing to check is the external conditions of the flowmeter: whether the power supply is functioning properly, whether there are leaks in the pipes or if they are not filled to capacity, whether there are bubbles inside the pipes, whether the signal cable is damaged, and whether the output signal from the converter (i.e., the input circuit for the downstream instruments) is open-circuited. Be sure not to disassemble the flow meter blindly.
