Magnesonics MSP100

Ultrasonic pulses are transmitted from the transmitter face and arc reflected from the surface of the product and received back by the same transmitter. A measurement of the time delay between the transmitted and received signals enables the microprocessor controlled electronics to calculate the level. From this the microprocessor can deduce contents in any volume units required or the flow of liquid through a flume or over a value.

This transmitter provides all the benefits of remote communications for interrogation, configuration and monitoring of field instruments. Changing the operation parameters in order to accommodate different or changing site conditions is easily achieved using the Hand Held Communicator, or the Magnesonics l1-View configuration software. Either method connects directly to the MSP 100 or at any point on the 2-wire loop, making data access and parameter changes simple and convenient. During configuration the 4-20mA output from the MSP100 is not affected in any way, ensuring a continuous and uninterrupted output.

The 'SMART' MSP100 is the latest addition to the industry proven and widely accepted MSP family. Designed for a wide range of applications including liquid level contents measurement and open channel flow measurement, when the requirement is a processed 4-20mA output proportional to the measured value.

The 'SMART' MSP100 Transmitter provides all the benefits of remote measurement and digital signal processing in one self-contained unit. 'This combination of level measurement and microprocessor control takes the lead in ultrasonic measurement technology, making the MSP100 the ideal choice for tank contents measurement and inventory control, particularly on multi-tank sites.

Simply connect the HART modem to your PC, load the program from the diskettes supplied and Magnesonics H-View is operational. On start up, the HART network is automatically scanned and all connected instruments are identified. Once this process is complete, the configuration data is stored locally on the PC hard disk and a network topology map is created, showing the instruments together with their Tag identifiers.

Any instrument can now be selected and the dynamic Process Variable shown. When used with KDG Magnesonics manufactured instrument, all of the instrument variables and parameters can be displayed and configured, while other HART instruments will show only Universal data such as Process Variable, Tag etc.

The MSP 1011 Hand Held Communicator (HHC) extends the capability and versatility of the MSP100 ' SMART' transmitter, allowing an extensive range of functions to be performed including programming, interrogation and readout display. The HHC is menu driven, making programming easy with step-by-step prompts to guide the user through the process. Fully portable, the pocket-size HHC is simply connected across the loop at any convenient access point.

For additional convenience the program can be configured in the HCC off-line while not connected to the 4-20rnA loop, then later downloaded into the MSP100 Sonapulse, either directly or from any point on the loop when on-site. Only one HHC is required for any number of MSP100 Sonapulse transmitters.

Display of processed measurement reading, providing display in units to suit the application. Percentage full scale. liquid level. ullage space and loop mA current can also be displayed.

• 4-20 mA analog output proportional to level, contents or flow.
• SMART capability: 4-20 mA output plus remote interrogation (using the HHC)
• Digital output only for full computer data control of all information.
• Multidrop, where a number of MSP 100 transmitters can be multiplexed digitally on the same 2-wire loop.
