Mass Flowmeter TRIO-MASSFlowmeter Primary
1. Principle of OperationThe ABB Automation Products Mass Flowmeters operate according to the Coriolis principle. The new TRIO-MASS-Design with its classical parallel tubes is characterized by a space saving, rugged construction, a wide range of meter sizes and price advantages for the customer.
When a mass flows through a vibrating meter tube, Coriolis forces result which tend to bend or rotate the tube. These minute meter tube deformations are measured by optimally positioned sensors and evaluated electronically. Since the measured phase shift in the sensor signals is proportional to the mass flowrate, the Coriolis-Mass-Flowmeter can determine the flowing mass directly. The measurement principle is indepen-dent of the density, temperature, pressure and conductivity of the fluid.
The meter tubes always vibrate at their natural frequency. This resonant frequency is a function of the meter tube geometry, the material properties and the mass of the vibrating fluid in the meter tube. It provides exact information about the density of the fluid being metered. In summary, it is possible to simulta-neously measure the mass flowrate, the density and the temperature with the Coriolis-Mass-Flowmeter.
The meter tubes always vibrate at their natural frequency. It is a function of the mass of the vibration system:
Mass of the meter tubes + mass of the fluid.
The resonant frequency changes when the density of the fluid changes. Therefore a simultaneous density determination is possible. The integrated temperature sensor measures the fluid temperature and is utilized to correct temperature related meter parameters.

2. Assembly and InstallationFlowmeter Primary
2.1 InspectionBefore installing the flowmeter primary, check for mechanical damage due to possible improper handling during shipment. All claims for damage are to be made promptly to the shipper prior to installing the meter.
2.1.1 Installation Requirements/Desi gn InformationThe TRIO-MASS are suitable for in- or outdoor installations. The standard instrument meets the requirements of Protection Class IP67. The flowmeter primaries are bidirectional and can be installed in any orientation (vertical or horizontal), as long as the meter tubes are always completely filled with fluid.The corrosion resistance of fluid wetted parts must be consid-ered.
The following points are to be considered during installation:The preferred flow direction is indicated by the arrow on the flowmeter primary. Flow in this direction will be indicated as positive (a forward/reverse flow calibration is available as on option).
Installation Orientation• The TRIO-MASS operates in all orientations. The optimal
installation orientation is vertical with the flow upwards.
Supports• In order the support the weight of the flowmeter primary and
to assure a correct measurement when external effects are present (e.g. vibrations) the flowmeter should be installed in a rigid pipeline. Two brackets or hangers should installed symmetrically and stress free in close proximity to the process connections.
Shut Off Devices• For setting the system zero shut off devices in the pipeline
are required.
- downstream for horizontal installations - upstream for vertical installations
• If possible, shut off devices should be installed up- and downstream of the flowmeter primary.
Inlet Straight Sections• The TRIO-MASS does not require any flow conditioning
inlet straight sections. Care should be exercised to assure that any valves, gates or sight glasses etc. do not cavitate and are not set into vibration by the flowmeter primary.
System Design Information• The presence of gas bubbles in the fluid can result in
erroneous measurements, particularly in the density measurement. Therefore the flowmeter primary should not be installed at the highest point in the system. Advantageous are installations in low pipeline sections, at the bottom of a u-section of pipeline.
• Long drop lines downstream from the flowmeter primary should be avoided to prevent the meter tube from draining.
• The connecting pipelines should be axially centered to assure a stress free installation.
• The flowmeter primary should not come in contact with any other elements. Mounting the housing is not permissible.
• When the cross-section of the connecting pipeline is larger than the flowmeter primary size, suitable standard reducers can be installed.
• If strong vibrations exist in the pipeline they should be damped using elastic pipeline elements. The damping devices must be installed outside of the supported flowmeter section and outside of the section between the shut off devices. The direct connection of flexible elements to the flowmeter primary should be avoided.
• Care should be exercised to assure that any dissolved gases, which are present in many liquids, do not outgas. The minimum back pressure at the outlet should be at least 0.2 bar.
• Assure that operation below the vapor pressure cannot occur when a vacuum exists in the meter tube or for fluids that boil readily.
• The flowmeter primary should not be installed in the vicinity of strong electromagnetic fields, e.g. near motors, pumps, transformers etc.
• Multiple flowmeter primaries in the same pipeline or installed in interconnected pipelines should be located far from one another, or, the pipeline must be decoupled to prevent crosstalk.
2.1.2 Zero Ad justmentIn order to adjust the zero under operating conditions it must be possible to reduce the flowrate „ZERO“ while the meter tube is completely filled. A bypass line is optimal when the process cannot be shut down. It is important for accurate measure-ments that during the adjustment there be absolutely no gas bubbles present in the flowmeter primary. Additional advanta-geous conditions during the zero adjustment are that the operating pressure and operating temperature exist in the meter tube.

2.1.3 Installation Information
Vertical InstallationsThe optimal installation orientation is a vertical installation with an upward flow Fig. 4 . This has the advantage that any solids contained in the fluid will settle downward and gas bubbles will move upward out of the meter tube when the flowrate is zero.Additionally it is easy to drain the meter tube. Deposits can thereby be avoided.
Horizontal Installations
Installations in Drop LinesThe installation recommendation shown in Fig. 6 is only possible if a pipeline reduction or orifice with a smaller cross-section can be installed to prevent the flowmeter primary from draining during the measurements.

Difficult Installation LocationsThe accumulation of air or gas bubbles in the meter tube can lead to increased inaccuracies. In Fig. 8 some difficult installations are shown.Installations at the highest point in the system (Figure A) can result in the formation of air pockets which can lead to appre-ciable inaccuracies.An additional difficult installation is immediately upstream of a free discharge (Figure B) in a drop line.

The converter housing can be positioned in a user desired orientation. A simple stop is located in the converter housing to prevent rotation of more than 330°. This provides protection for the cable coming from the flowmeter primary.
The following steps are required:
1. Loosen the mounting screw (approx. 2 turns)
2. Position converter as desired
3. Tighten the mounting screw
! Note:After the converter is positioned, it is essential that the Allen head screw be retightened.

3.3 Programming the ConverterAfter the converter is powered the converter automatically executes a number of self test routines > When the tests have been completed the Standard-Display (process information) appears. The display presentations can be user configured.
3.3.1 Data Entr yThe data can be entered using the three buttons on the converter. The menus can be displayed in one of a number of languages.
After the four mounting screws (1-4) have been loosened the converter can be repositioned in 4 orientations to assure optimum readability.
Magnetic stick operation makes it possible to configure the converter without opening the housing cover.
! Note:The EMC- and personnel contact protection is voided when the housing cover is removed.
During data entry the converter remains on-line, i.e., the current and pulse outputs continue to indicate the actual instantaneous operating values. The functions of the individual buttons are described below:
C/CE The C/CE-key is used to toggle back and forth between the operating mode and the menu display.
STEP ↑ The STEP-key is one of two arrow keys. STEP is used to scroll forward through the menu. All desired parameters can be accessed.
DATA ↓ The DATA-key is one of two arrow keys. DATA is used to scroll backward through the menu. All desired parameters can be accessed.
ENTER The ENTER function requires that both arrow keys, STEP and DATA be pressed simultaneously. ENTER is used to turn the program protection on and offENTER is also used to access the parameter to be changed and to accept the new
DATA ↓ selection or entered value
The ENTER function is active for approx. 10 sec. If no entries are made during this10 second time interval the old value is redisplayed. If an additional 10 seconds elapses without any action, the standard process display reappears.
It is also possible to activate the ENTER function by pressing and holding (> 2s) the DATA key.
ENTER Function for Magnetic Stick OperationThe ENTER function is initiated when the DATA/ENTER sensor is activated for more than 2 seconds. The display blinks to indicate that the function is active.
There are two data entry types:• Direct numerical entries
• Selections from a predefined table.
! Note:During data entry the values entered are checked for plausibility and if necessary, rejected with an appropriate message.

The same values as those available in the standard display can be programmed for the multiplex display.
3.6.15Submenu Totalizer
This menu includes additional submenus for configuring theindividual totalizers for the mass and volume flow integrations and a menu item to simultaneously reset all the totalizers.
All four totalizers (forward and reverse, mass and volume totalizers) count to 10 million (in the selected totalizer units). When 10 million counts are reached the corresponding overflow counter is incremented by one and the totalizer is reset to zero to begin another cycle. In order to recognize that an overflow has occurred a warning is displayed. Up to 65535 overflows can be recorded in each overflow counter. Each individual totalizer can be individually reset (by entering a zero) or preset to a specific value. When a totalizer is preset (or reset) the corresponding overflow counter is also reset to zero.
If “forward” (only) was selected in the flow direction menu in the operating mode submenu then only those menus specifically relating to the forward flow are displayed.
Reset All Flow Totalizers
After acknowledging the warning statement, which is included to prevent an inadvertent clearing of the totalizers, all totalizers are simultaneously reset. The following sequential display of the functions of the individual totalizers is only included to confirm that all the totalizers have been reset.

3.6.16 Submenu Pulse Output
Example for an external counter: 1kg = 1 pulse
3.6.16.1 Output Pulse
Selections are made in this menu whether the output of the pulses should be based on mass or volume flow.
3.6.16.2 Pulse Factor
The pulse factor is defined in this menu by how many pulses should be outputted for one selected totalizer unit. In the above example "mass pulses” are to be transmitted. The pulse factor is defined as 1/Kilogram because in this example the totalizer mass units had been selected as Kilogram. Values between 0.001 and 1000 pulse per totalizer unit can be entered. The value entered will be automatically reduced by the converter if the number of pulses per second exceeds 5000.
! An increase in the pulses per totalizer unit can result in a reduction in the pulse width!
3.6.16.3 Pulse Width
Values between 0.1ms and 2000 ms can be entered. The converter checks to assure that the pulse width is less than one half of the period at the maximum frequency of the pulse output, which is a function of Qmax and the pulse factor, and if necessary, reduces the value entered.
Example:Example 1: Enter a new pulse width
Settings: QmMax = 24 kg/min = 0.4 kg/sTotalizer units kgPulse factor = 100 pulses/kg
Entry: Pulse width = 10 ms
→ 0.4 kg/s * 100 pulses/kg = 40 pulses/s => frequency = 40 Hz => Period = 25 ms
→ Maximum pulse width = Period /2 = 12.5 ms → Result : The 10 ms entry will be accepted.
Example 2: Enter a new pulse factor
Settings: QmMax = 6 kg/min = 0.1 kg/s = 100 g/sTotalizer units gPulse width 10ms
Entry: Pulse factor 60 pulses/g
→ 100g/s * 60 pulses/g = 6000 pulses/s =>frequency = 6000 Hz => too large !
→ The converter automatically reduces the pulse factor to 50 pulses/g resulting in a period of 0.2ms (5kHz)=> equals 5000 Hz exactly
→ Maximum pulse width = period /2 = 0.1 ms → Result: The values entered for the pulse factor and pulse
width had to be reduced.
3.6.17Submenu Current Output 1
In this menu the current output range is defined. The current output can be switched between two ranges, 0-20 mA and 4-20 mA. HART-Communication utilizes current output 1. This requires that the 4-20 mA current range be selected. If the 0-20 mA current range is selected and an attempt is made to use the HART-Communication, a message is displayed that the current range is not set to 4-20 mA. The communication mode is not changed. If for the communication mode HART-Protocol the current range is changed from 4-20 mA to 0-20 mA, a message is displayed indicating that the HART-Communication will be turned off and the current range switched to 0-20 mA.

• Ambient temperature -20 °C to +60 °C• The Temperature Class is a function of the ambient and fluid temperatures
Their relationship is listed in the EC-Type Examination Certificate.• The supply voltage values for the converter are listed on the Instrument Tag.• The Ignition Type for the output circuits is determined by the circuits of the external instruments
connected and can be selected as a “intrinsically safe” or a “non-intrinsically safe” design. A combination of “intrinsically safe” and “non-intrinsically safe” is not permitted. The test voltage for the output circuits for both Ignition Types is UT = 60 V.
• The safety specifications for the intrinsically safe circuits may be found in the EC-Type Examination Certificate.
• Assure that the cover over the supply power connections is properly closed. For intrinsically safe circuits the connection area may be open.
• It is recommended that the proper cable connectors, included with the shipment, be used for the current output as a function of the Ignition Type: intrinsically safe → blue; non-intrinsically safe → black.
• The flowmeter primary and the converter are to be connected to the potential equalization.For intrinsically safe current outputs potential equalization must be established along the entire connection circuit.
• If the flowmeter primary is insulated, the maximum thickness of the insulation may not exceed100 mm. The converter housing may not be insulated.
• The corrosion resistance of the meter tube materials to the fluid must be considered.

5.2 Safety Specifications for the In- and Outputs
Special Requirements:The output circuits are designed to be connected to either intrinsically safe or non-intrinsically safe circuits. A combination of intrinsically safe and non-intrinsically safe is not permitted. For intrinsically safe current outputs potential equalization must be established along the entire connection circuit. The test voltage for the output circuits for the non-intrinsically safe circuits is UT = 60 V.
The contact and pulse output (terminals 41/42, 51/52) can be internally configured as a NAMUR-Contact for connection to a NAMUR-Amplifier.
The flowmeter is shipped with black cable connectors installed. If the signal outputs are to be connected to intrinsically safe circuits, it is recommended that they be replaced by the light blue cable connectors included with the shipment.
!NoteThe applicable requirements for air gaps and creep paths listed in the Interconnection Diagram are to be observed.Installation and start-up should only be undertaken by trained personnel in accordance with the applicable installation requirements.

6. Alarm Overview
The table shown on the following page contains an alarm overview including a description of the converter behavior during an alarm condition. Included in the table are all the possible errors and their influence on the measurement values and the behavior of the current and alarm outputs. If a table cell is blank then that error causes no change in the measurement values but an alarm signal is transmitted to the appropriate output. In those cells for the current output where only the word Alarm appears, the current is set to the value selected in the current output menu for High- or Low-Alarm.The order of the errors in the table corresponds to their priorities. The first entry has the highest priority and the last the lowest. When multiple errors are encountered, the alarm status of the measurement value or the current output is determined by the error with the highest priority. If an error with a higher priority has no effect on the measurement signal or output, then the error with next higher priority determines the status of the measurement value or output.
Example:If the error "Temperature Measurement" occurs, then it can be seen in the table that this error changes the temperature (constant 20 °C). Because this error results in an error signal on the current output for all measurement values, both current output are set to their programmed alarm values (High-/Low-Alarm). If the error "Density < 0.5 g/cm3" also occurred then the volume flowrate would be set to 0% and the current output which indicates density would be set to the Low-Alarm value regardless of the selections in the current output menu.
1) After this error occurs, the totalizer begins to count from zero after the error condition has been corrected.
