NOTICE

This document provides basic installation guidelines for the Rosemount® 8750W Magnetic

Flowmeter System. For comprehensive instructions, for detailed configuration, diagnostics,

maintenance, service, installation or troubleshooting, refer to the Rosemount 8750W

reference manual (document number 00809-0100-4750 Rev. BA). The manual and this QSG

are also available electronically on www.rosemount.com.

Failure to follow these installation guidelines could result in death or serious injury:

 Installation and servicing instructions are for use by qualified personnel only. Do not perform

any servicing other than that contained in the operating instructions, unless qualified.

 Verify that the operating environment of the sensor and transmitter is consistent with the

operating environment.

 Do not connect a Rosemount transmitter to a non-Rosemount sensor that is located in an

explosive atmosphere.

 The sensor liner is vulnerable to handling damage. Never place anything through the sensor

for the purpose of lifting or gaining leverage. Liner damage may render the sensor inoperable.

 Metallic or spiral-wound gaskets should not be used as they will damage the liner face of the

sensor.

 If frequent removal is anticipated, take precautions to protect the liner ends. Short spool

pieces attached to the sensor ends are often used for protection.

 Rosemount Magnetic Flowmeters ordered with non-standard paint options may be subject to

electrostatic discharge. To avoid electrostatic charge build-up, do not rub the flowmeter with

a dry cloth or clean with solvents.

 Correct flange bolt tightening is crucial for proper sensor operation and life. All bolts must be

tightened in the proper sequence to the specified torque specifications. Failure to observe

these instructions could result in severe damage to the sensor lining and possible sensor

replacement.

Step 1: Pre-installation

Before installing the Rosemount 8750W Flowmeter, there are several

pre-installation steps that should be completed to make the installation process

easier:

 Identify the options and configurations that apply to your application

 Set the hardware switches if necessary

 Consider mechanical, electrical, and environmental requirements

Mechanical considerations

The mounting site for the Rosemount 8750W transmitter should provide enough

room for secure mounting, easy access to conduit ports, full opening of the

transmitter covers, and easy readability of the LOI screen (see

Figure 1 and

Figure 2).

If the Rosemount 8750W transmitter is mounted separately from the sensor, it

may not be subject to the same limitations that apply to the sensor.

Environmental considerations

To ensure maximum transmitter life, avoid extreme temperature and excessive

vibration. Typical problem areas:

 high-vibration lines with integrally mounted transmitters

 warm-climate installations in direct sunlight

 outdoor installations in cold climates.

Remote-mounted transmitters may be installed in the control room to protect

the electronics from the harsh environment and provide easy access for

configuration or service.

Both remotely and integrally mounted Rosemount 8750W transmitters require

external power so there must be access to a suitable power source.

Installation procedures

Rosemount 8750W installation includes both detailed mechanical and electrical

installation procedures.

Mount the transmitter

At a remote site the transmitter may be mounted on a pipe up to two inches in

diameter or against a flat surface.

Pipe mounting

To mount the transmitter on a pipe:

1. Attach the mounting bracket to the pipe using the mounting hardware.

2. Attach the Rosemount 8750W transmitter to the mounting bracket using the

mounting screws.

Identify options and configurations

The standard application of the 8750W includes a 4–20 mA output and control of

the sensor coils and electrodes. Other applications may require one or more of

the following configurations or options:

 HART Multidrop Configuration

 Discrete Output

 Discrete Input

 Pulse Output

Be sure to identify any additional options and configurations that apply to the

installation. Keep a list of these options nearby for consideration during the

installation and configuration procedures.

Quick Start Guide

Hardware jumpers/switches

The 8750W electronics board is equipped with user-selectable hardware switches

depending on the transmitter model ordered. These switches set the Failure

Alarm Mode, Internal/External Analog Power, Internal/External Pulse Power and

Transmitter Security. The standard configuration for these switches when

shipped from the factory is as follows:

Changing hardware switch settings

In most cases, it will not be necessary to change the setting of the hardware

switches. If the switch settings need to be changed, follow the steps outlined in

the manual.

Electrical considerations

Before making any electrical connections to the Rosemount 8750W, consider

national, local and plant electrical installation requirements. Be sure to have the

proper power supply, conduit, and other accessories necessary to comply with

these standards.

Rotate transmitter housing

The Field Mount transmitter housing can be rotated on the sensor in 90°

increments by removing the four mounting bolts on the bottom of the housing.

Do not rotate the housing more than 180 ° in any one direction. Prior to

tightening, be sure the mating surfaces are clean, the O-ring is seated in the

groove, and there is no gap between the housing and the sensor.

Failure Alarm Mode: HIGH

Internal/External Analog Power: INTERNAL

Internal/External Pulse Power: EXTERNAL (Field Mount only)

Transmitter Security: OFF

Use a non-metallic tool to move switch positions.

Step 2: Handling

Handle all parts carefully to prevent damage. Whenever possible, transport the

system to the installation site in the original shipping containers. Rosemount flow

sensors are shipped with end covers that protect it from mechanical damage. For

PTFE lined sensors the cover also prevents normal liner relaxation. Remove the

end covers just before installation.

Step 3: Mounting

Upstream/downstream piping

To ensure specification accuracy over widely varying process conditions, install

the sensor a minimum of five straight pipe diameters upstream and two pipe

diameters downstream from the electrode plane (see

Figure 4).

Figure 4. Upstream and downstream straight pipe diameters

Installations with reduced upstream and downstream straight runs are possible.

In reduced straight run installations, absolute performance may shift. Reported

flow rates will still be highly repeatable.

The sensor should be mounted so the FORWARD end of the flow arrow points in

the direction of flow through the sensor (see

Figure 5).

The sensor should be installed in a location that ensures it remains full during

operation. Vertical installation with upward process fluid flow keeps the

cross-sectional area full, regardless of flow rate. Horizontal installation should be

restricted to low piping sections that are normally full.

Figure 6. Sensor orientation

Mounting position

The electrodes in the sensor are properly orientated when the two measurement

electrodes are in the 3 and 9 o’clock position or within 45 ° from the vertical, as

shown on the right of

Figure 7. Avoid any mounting orientation where the two

measurement electrodes are in the 6 and 12 o’clock position as shown on the left

of

Figure 7.

Step 4: Installation

Flanged sensors

Gaskets

The sensor requires a gasket at each of its connections to adjacent devices or piping.

The gasket material selected must be compatible with the process fluid and operating

conditions. Gaskets are required on each side of a grounding ring. All other

applications (including sensors with lining protectors or a grounding electrode)

require only one gasket on each end connection.

Figure 8. Flanged gasket placement

Metallic or spiral-wound gaskets should not be used as they will damage the liner face of the

sensor. If spiral wound or metallic gaskets are required for the application, lining protectors

must be used.

February 2014

Flange bolts

Do not bolt one side at a time. Tighten each side simultaneously. Example:

1. Snug upstream

2. Snug downstream

3. Tighten upstream

4. Tighten downstream

Do not snug and tighten the upstream side and then snug and tighten the

downstream side.

Failure to alternate between the upstream and downstream flanges when

tightening bolts may result in liner damage.

Suggested torque values by sensor line size and liner type are listed in

Table 1 on

page 12. Consult the factory if the flange rating of the sensor is not listed.

Tighten flange bolts on the upstream side of the sensor in the incremental

sequence shown in

Figure 9 on page 11 to 20% of the suggested torque values.

Repeat the process on the downstream side of the sensor. For sensors with more

or less flange bolts, tighten the bolts in a similar crosswise sequence. Repeat this

entire tightening sequence at 40%, 60%, 80%, and 100% of the suggested torque

values or until the leak between the process and sensor flanges stop.

If leakage has not stopped at the suggested torque values, the bolts can be

tightened in additional 10% increments until the joint stops leaking, or until the

measured torque value reaches the maximum torque value of the bolts. Practical

consideration for the integrity of the liner often leads the user to distinct torque

values to stop leakage due to the unique combinations of flanges, bolts, gaskets,

and sensor liner material.

Check for leaks at the flanges after tightening the bolts. Failure to use the correct

tightening methods can result in severe damage. Sensors require a second

tightening 24 hours after the initial installation. Over time, sensor liner materials

may deform under pressure.

Step 6: Wiring

This wiring section covers the connection between the transmitter and sensor,

the 4-20 mA loop, and supplying power to the transmitter. Follow the conduit

information, cable requirements, and disconnect requirements in the sections

below.

Conduit ports and connections

Both the sensor and transmitter junction boxes have ports for

1

/2-inch NPT

conduit connections or optional M20 connection is available. These connections

should be made in accordance with national, local, and plant electrical codes.

Unused ports should be sealed with metal plugs. Proper electrical installation is

necessary to prevent errors due to electrical noise and interference. Separate

conduits are not necessary for the coil drive and electrode cables, but a dedicated

conduit line between each transmitter and sensor is required. Shielded cable

must be used for best results in electrically noisy environments. When preparing

all wire connections, remove only the insulation required to fit the wire

completely under the terminal connection. Removal of excessive insulation may

result in an unwanted electrical short to the transmitter housing or other wire

connections. For flanged sensors installed into an application requiring IP68

protection, sealed cable glands, conduit, and conduit plugs that meet IP68

ratings are required. Option Codes R05, R10, R15, R20, R25, and R30 provide a

pre-wired potted and sealed junction box as additional protection to prevent the

ingress of water. These options still require the use of sealed conduits to meet

IP68 protection requirements.

Conduit requirements

A single dedicated conduit run for the coil drive and electrode cable is needed

between the sensor and the remote transmitter. See

Figure 14. Bundled cables

in a single conduit are likely to create interference and noise problems in the

system.

Electrode cables should not be run together and should not be in the same cable

ray with power cables.

Output cables should not be run together with power cables.

Select conduit size appropriate to feed cables through to the flowmeter.

Quick Start Guide

Run the appropriate size cable through the conduit connections in your magnetic

flowmeter system. Run the power cable from the power source to the

transmitter. Run the coil drive and electrode cables between the flowmeter

sensor and transmitter.

 Installed signal wiring should not be run together and should not be in the

same cable tray as AC or DC power wiring.

 Device must be properly grounded according to national and local electric

codes.

 Rosemount combination cable part number 08732-0753-1003 (ft) or

08732-0753-2004 (m) is required to be used to meet EMC requirements.

Transmitter to sensor wiring

The transmitter can be integral to the sensor or remotely mounted following the

wiring instructions.

Remote mount cable requirements and preparation

For installations using the individual coil drive and electrode cable, lengths should

be limited to less than 1,000 feet (300 meters). Equal length cable is required for

each. See

Table 5 on page 19.

For installations using the combination coil drive and electrode cable, lengths

should be limited to less than 330 feet (100 meters). See

Table 5 on page 19.

Prepare the ends of the coil drive and electrode cables as shown in

Figure 15.

Limit the unshielded wire length to 1-inch on both the coil drive and electrode

cables. Any unsheathed wire should be wrapped with proper insulation. Excessive

lead length or failure to connect cable shields can create electrical noise resulting

in unstable meter readings.
