Rosemount 8800D Vortex Flow Meter – Key Features

1. No Moving Parts
   Design: The 8800D is designed without moving parts, which reduces wear and tear, enhances reliability, and minimizes maintenance. This also ensures longer operational life, especially in applications with harsh conditions.

2. Broad Application Range
   Versatility: It is capable of measuring the flow of liquids, gases, and steam, making it suitable for diverse industries like oil & gas, chemical processing, power generation, and water treatment.
   Reduced Bore Option: Available for applications requiring lower flow rates in smaller pipelines.

3. Advanced Diagnostics with Vortex Intelligence™
   Real-time Diagnostics: It provides advanced diagnostic capabilities to monitor the health of the meter, detect blockages, improper installation, or process noise.
   Safety Notifications: Alerts users to potential issues, which helps improve process efficiency and reduces downtime.

4. Safety-Certified (SIL 2/3 Capable)
   Safety Features: Certified for use in critical applications, such as in Safety Instrumented Systems (SIS). The SIL 2/3 certification provides assurance for safety-related functions in critical applications.
   Dual-Sensor Redundancy: Dual-sensor configurations can be used for increased safety and reliability by providing redundancy in measurement.

5. Multi-Variable Measurement
   Mass Flow Calculation: With integrated temperature compensation, the Rosemount 8800D can measure mass flow rate directly, making it particularly useful in steam and gas applications where temperature and pressure variations affect flow.

6. Easy Integration and Communication
   Output Options: It offers a variety of communication protocols such as HART®, FOUNDATION™ Fieldbus, and Modbus®, allowing easy integration into existing control systems.
   4–20 mA Output: Standard analog output with digital HART communication allows real-time remote monitoring and diagnostics.

7. Robust Construction
   Material Options: Available in various materials, including stainless steel and special alloys, to handle corrosive or abrasive fluids.
   Pressure Rating: Can operate in high-pressure systems, up to ANSI Class 1500.

8. High Accuracy and Repeatability
   Accuracy: ±0.65% of reading for liquids, and ±1.0% for gases and steam. This level of precision ensures reliable and consistent measurements across applications.
   Repeatability: The device provides exceptional repeatability, which is crucial for stable process control.

9. Wide Temperature and Pressure Ranges
   Temperature Range: Operates in extreme temperature environments, with ranges from –330 °F to 1000 °F (–200 °C to 538 °C) for certain models.
   Pressure Ratings: Supports operation in high-pressure systems up to 2900 psi (20,000 kPa).

10. Simplified Installation and Maintenance
    Wafer and Flanged Options: Available in both wafer and flanged configurations, allowing for flexibility in installation. The wafer-style design minimizes footprint and costs in compact setups.
    Maintenance: The lack of moving parts reduces the need for regular maintenance, and self-diagnostics provide alerts before major issues occur.

11. Industry Certifications
    Explosion-Proof and Intrinsically Safe: Certified for hazardous areas, with approvals like ATEX, CSA, and IECEx.
    NACE Compliance: Available in NACE-compliant materials for corrosion resistance in oil & gas applications.
