This module lets flowmeters communicate via fieldbus

| By Chemical Engineering

Siemmens

This firm has developed a new communication module (photo) for connecting flow instruments to Foundation Fieldbus (FF). The module is suitable for the series of Sitrans F M 6000 and Sitrans F C MASS 6000 devices, which are part of the USM II (Universal Signal Module) family. Based on the plug-and-play principle, the user simply clicks the module into the mount of the instrument. In addition to the new FF module, there are additional modules available for Profibus PA/DP, HART, Modbus RTU and DeviceNet. — Siemmens Industry Automation Division, Nuremberg, Germany
