Emerson Process Management: EtherNet/IP Option for Flowmeters

Access to the multivariable data enabled by the module allows for increased productivity and fast process insight with control system access to flow, density, temperature and many other parameters. The EtherNet/IP module is suitable for DIN Rail mounting and is ODVA Certified. Installable in less than 30 minutes, the EtherNet/IP module can be mounted in the control cabinet, removing the need to run Ethernet cabling out to the field. Its web browser provides network access to a configuration and diagnostic interface, enabling a full range of remote activities including Smart Meter Verification, which determines Coriolis meter performance without stopping the process or interrupting the flow. This module adds to the range of communication interface options available with Micro Motion Coriolis flowmeters, including DeviceNet, Profibus DP, Modbus, Foundation fieldbus, and Profibus PA in addition to the traditional interfaces of 4-20 mA frequency and HART.
