In the continuing series of “how to” videos across the Emerson Automation Solutions YouTube channels, the Micro Motion channel has a recent Installing a Micro Motion Coriolis transmitter video (run time 6:51).

This video walks you through the steps in how to install a Micro Motion transmitter. It will help you to become familiar with the planning process, understand how to properly mount the transmitter, and know how to power the transmitter.

The video opens showing where to go on the Emerson website to get the Micro Motion Model 5700 Transmitters installation guide.

In step 1, the transmitter planning process, the video describes the three main components in a Coriolis meter—the transmitter, the sensor and the core processor for additional memory and core processing functions.

It’s important to review the tag on the transmitter housing to verify that the transmitter is suitable for the environment in which it will be installed. For example, if it will be installed in a Class I, Division 1 hazardous environment, the tag should indicate this suitability.

During the planning process, it’s important to make sure you have received all the cabling parts that come as accessories with the transmitter. The cable and cable glands should be appropriate for the electrical classification of the installation site.

Refer to the installation guide for the maximum cable lengths for your installation:
