Interoperability (ITK
5.0.1) |
|
FOUNDATION fieldbus specifications (ITK 5.0.1) grant the
interoperability of the field instruments. |
|
- |
Reduction of
instrumentation cost |
|
The multi-drop wiring on the Fieldbus
communication line contributes to the reduction of wiring cost. |

Mass flow
calculation |
|
Arithmetic (AR) function block expands the mass
flow calculation function for the saturated steam, superheated steam and gases
by using external pressure/temperature input (/MV:internal temperature input)
with a high accuracy. Additionally, in combination with FlowNavigator Flow
Configuration Software (FSA120) brings to the high accurate mass flow
calculation output, ex. natural gas process, physical properties database for
126 fluids and custom fluids. |

- |
User-friendliness |
|
The common function block of field devices have
the same operability, because of their common specification. The individual
device setting (Transducer Block parameter setting) can be done simply by
executing METHOD. |
|
- |
Independent flow and
temperature calculations (multi-variable type: option) |
|
The multi-variable type (/MV: option) of
digitalYEWFLO separately outputs flowrate output (AI1) and temperature output
(AI2) . Two DI function blocks output the limit signal output both flowrate and
temperature. |
|
- |
Advanced
self-diagnostics |
|
The digitalYEWFLO has advanced self-diagnostics
which can predict and identify anomalies in the process conditions, such as high
pipeline vibration and abnormal flow. Also, the Fieldbus type digitalYEWFLO
supports various alarm functions, such as high/low-limit alarms and alerts of
block errors, based on the FOUNDATION
fieldbus specification. |

- |
Link Master function :
BASIC at factory setting. |
|
digitalYEWFLO Fieldbus models support the Link
Master function. This function enables backup of network manager and local
control only by field devices. |
|
- |
PID function block
(option) |
|
A PID function block (with the I-PD control
algorithm) enables the field device to control the process. |
|
- |
Software download
function (option) |
|
Software download function permits to update DY
software via a FOUNDATION fieldbus.
Typical use of this function is to add new features such as function blocks and
diagnostics to existing devices. |
