A.1 Safety messages
Instructions and procedures in this section may require special precautions to ensure the safety
of the personnel performing the operations. Please read the following safety messages before
performing any operation described in this section.
A.1.1 Universal capability
The 8732EM transmitter has the ability to drive other manufacturers' sensors and report a flow
rate. In addition to providing a flow measurement, all of the diagnostic functionality is also
available in a universal application. This capability can provide additional information into the
installation, process, and meter health, in addition to enabling a common maintenance practice
for all magnetic flowmeter installations and helping to reduce spares inventory of magnetic
flowmeter transmitters.
This section details how to wire the transmitter to other manufacturers' sensors and configure
the universal capabilities.
The Rosemount 8732EM Transmitter has not been evaluated for use with other
manufacturers' magnetic flowmeter sensors in hazardous (Ex or Classified) areas.
Special care should be taken by the end-user and installer to ensure the 8732EM
transmitter meets the safety and performance requirements of the other manufacturer’s
equipment.
