Gammapilot M FMG60 PROFIBUS PA Basic safety instructions

2 Basic safety instructions

2.1 Requirements for the personnel


The personnel for installation, commissioning, diagnostics and maintenance must fulfill
the following requirements:
‣ Trained, qualified specialists must have a relevant qualification for this specific function
and task.
‣ Are authorized by the plant owner/operator.
‣ Are familiar with federal/national regulations.
‣ Before starting work, read and understand the instructions in the manual and
supplementary documentation as well as the certificates (depending on the
application).
‣ Follow instructions and comply with basic conditions.
The operating personnel must fulfill the following requirements:
‣ Are instructed and authorized according to the requirements of the task by the facility's
owner-operator.
‣ Follow the instructions in this manual.

2.2 Designated use


The Gammapilot M is a compact transmitter for non-contact level, point level, density and
concentration measurement. The measuring range of a single Gammapilot M is up to 2 m
(6.6 ft). Large measuring ranges of any size can be implemented, however, by cascading
several Gammapilot M devices. When used for point level detection, the Gammapilot is
certified according to IEC 61508 for safety-related operation up to SIL 2/3.

2.3 Installation, commissioning and operation


The Gammapilot M is designed to meet state-of-the-art safety requirements and complies
with applicable standards and EC regulations. However, if it is used improperly or for
applications for which it is not intended, application-related hazards may arise, e.g.
product overflow due to incorrect installation or configuration. Installation, electrical
connection, commissioning, operation and maintenance of the measuring system must
therefore be carried out exclusively by trained specialists authorized to perform such work
by the system operator. Technical personnel must have read and understood these
Operating Instructions and must adhere to them. Modifications and repairs to the device
may only be carried out if they are expressly permitted in the Operating Instructions.

2.4 Hazardous area


If the measuring system is used in hazardous areas, the corresponding national standards
and regulations must be observed. The device is accompanied by separate "Ex
documentation", which is an integral part of these Operating Instructions. The installation
specifications, connection values and safety instructions listed in this supplementary
documentation must be observed.
• Ensure that all technical personnel are suitably qualified and trained.
• Comply with the metrological and safety-related requirements for the measuring point.

LCAUTION
The detector or cooling jacket can become damaged if the cooling water freezes.
‣ Empty sensor with cooling jacket or protect against freezing.

LWARNING
‣ Depending on the certificate ordered, observe the associated safety instructions
→  90

2.5 Radiation protection


The Gammapilot M is used in conjunction with a radioactive source, contained in a source
container. When handling radioactive sources, the following instructions must be
observed:

2.5.1 Basic radiation protection guidelines


LWARNING
‣ When working with radioactive sources, avoid any unnecessary exposure to radiation.
All unavoidable radiation exposure must be kept to a minimum. Three basic concepts
apply to achieve this:

A B C
A0016373

A Shielding
B Time
C Distance

Shielding
Ensure the best possible shielding between the radiation source and yourself and all other
persons. Effective shielding is provided by source containers (FQG60, FQG61/FQG62,
FQG63, QG2000) and all high-density materials (lead, iron, concrete etc.).

LCAUTION
‣ When working with source containers, all the instructions for mounting and usage
outlined in the following documents must be observed:

FQG63 TI00446F/00/EN

QG2000 TI00346F/00/EN
BA00223F/00/EN

Time
The time spent in the exposed area should be kept to a minimum.

Distance
Keep as far away from the radiation source as possible. The radiation intensity decreases
in proportion to the square of the distance from the radiation source.

2.6 Workplace safety


For work on and with the device:
‣ Wear the required personal protective equipment according to federal/national
regulations.

2.7 Operational safety


Risk of injury.
‣ Operate the device in proper technical condition and fail-safe condition only.
‣ The operator is responsible for interference-free operation of the device.
Conversions to the device
Unauthorized modifications to the device are not permitted and can lead to unforeseeable
dangers.
‣ If, despite this, modifications are required, consult with the manufacturer.
Repair
To ensure continued operational safety and reliability,
‣ Carry out repairs on the device only if they are expressly permitted.
‣ Observe federal/national regulations pertaining to repair of an electrical device.
‣ Use original spare parts and accessories from the manufacturer only.
Hazardous area
To eliminate a danger for persons or for the facility when the device is used in the
hazardous area (e.g. explosion protection, pressure vessel safety):
‣ Based on the nameplate, check whether the ordered device is permitted for the
intended use in the hazardous area.
‣ Observe the specifications in the separate supplementary documentation that is an
integral part of these Instructions.

2.8 Product safety

head should point downwards
• The angle of emission of the source container must be exactly aligned to the measuring
range of the Gammapilot M. Observe the measuring range marks of the Gammapilot M.
• If several Gammapilot M devices are connected in cascade mode, there should not be any
gap between the individual measuring ranges.
• The source container and the Gammapilot M should be mounted as close to the vessel as
possible. Any access to the beam must be blocked to ensure that it is not possible to
reach into this area.
• The Gammapilot M should be protected against direct sunlight in order to increase its
service life. Use a protective cover if necessary.
• The mounting device FHG60 or an equivalent mounting device should be used to secure
the Gammapilot M →  82
The mounting device must be installed in such a way as to withstand the weight of the
Gammapilot M under all anticipated operating conditions (e.g. vibrations). →  17

4.2.4 Installation conditions for density and concentration


measurements

Conditions
• If possible, density and concentration should be measured on vertical pipes with forward
flow from bottom to top.
• If only horizontal pipes are accessible, the path of the beam should also be arranged
horizontally to minimize the influence of air bubbles and deposits.
• The Endress+Hauser clamping device FHG61 or an equivalent clamping device should be
used to fasten the radiation source container and the Gammapilot M to the measuring
tube. →  84
The clamping device itself must be installed in such a way as to withstand the weight of
the source container and the Gammapilot M under all anticipated operating conditions.
→  17
• The sample point may not be further than 20 m (66 ft) from the measuring point.
• The distance of the density measurement to pipe bends is ≥3 x pipe diameter, and ≥10 x
pipe diameter in the case of pumps.

Measuring system arrangement


The arrangement of the source container and the Gammapilot M depends on the pipe
diameter (or the length of the irradiated measuring path) and the density measuring
range. These two parameters determine the measuring effect (relative change in the pulse
rate). The measuring effect increases with the length of the radiation path through the
medium. Therefore, it is advisable to use diagonal irradiation or a measurement section for
small pipe diameters.
To select the measuring system arrangement please contact your Endress+Hauser sales
organization or use the Applicator™ configuration software 1)

1) The Applicator™ is available from your Endress+Hauser sales organization.

C Measurement section

• To increase the accuracy of density measurements, the use of a collimator is


recommended. The collimator screens the detector from environmental radiation.
• When planning, the total weight of the measuring system must be taken into
consideration.
• The Gammapilot M should be given additional support to secure it against falling or
to prevent damage to the connecting cable.
• A clamping device (FHG61) and a measurement section (FHG62) are available as
accessories →  84

A0018077

1 Gammapilot M
2 Monitoring detector FTG20 or FMG60
3 PLC

Mounting the FTG20 or FMG60 on the FMG60 for empty pipe detection
If the pipe becomes empty as a result of operational processes, the level of radiation on the
detector side can reach dangerous levels.
• In such cases, the radiation emission channel must be closed immediately for reasons of
radiation protection.
• A high local dose rate also causes the detector unit (scintillator and photomultiplier) to
age quickly.
The best way to avoid such a situation is to mount a second radiometric measuring system
that monitors the radiation intensity. If high radiation levels occur, an alarm is output
and/or the source container is automatically switched off through pneumatic action for
example.

4.2.6 Installation conditions for flow measurement

Measurement of solids flow


In conjunction with a density measuring device, such as Endress+Hauser's Gammapilot M,
Promag 55S also determines the rate of solids in terms of mass, volume or percentage. The
following order information is required for this purpose for Promag 55S: Order option for
the "Solids flow" software function (F-CHIP) and order option for a current input.

2 Solids flow measurement (m) using a density meter and a flowmeter. If the density of the solids ( ρs) and
the density of the carrier liquid (ρc) are also known, the solids flow rate can be calculated.

1 Flowmeter (Promag 55S) -> volume flow (V). The solids density ( ρs) and the density of the carrier liquid (ρc)
also have to be entered in the transmitter
2 Density meter (e.g. "Gammapilot M") -> total density ( ρm) consisting of the carrier liquid and solids

Measurement of mass flow


Bulk solids applications on conveyor belts and conveyor screws.
The source container is positioned above the conveyor belt and the Gammapilot M FMG60
below the conveyor belt. The radiation is attenuated by the medium on the conveyor belt.
The intensity of the radiation received is proportional to the density of the medium. The
mass flow is calculated from the belt speed and the radiation intensity.

The current consumption is approx. 11 mA over the entire voltage range.

5.7 Potential equalization


Please observe the following points to ensure maximum EMC protection:
• Ground the device via the external ground terminal. The cable should be kept as short as
possible for optimum electromagnetic compatibility. Ideally, use a ground strap.
• The shielding of the bus cable must be continuous and intact.
• If there is potential equalization between the individual grounding points, ground the
shielding at each cable end or connect it to the device housing (keep as short as
possible).
• If there are large differences in potential between the individual grounding points, only
one point is connected with the reference ground. All the other ends of the shielding are
connected to the reference potential via a capacitor that is suitable for high frequency
use (e.g. ceramic capacitor 10 nF/250 V).

6.5 Resetting to the default configuration


It is always advisable to reset the customer parameters if you want to use a device with an
unknown history. Effects of resetting:
• All customer parameters are reset to their default values.
• Linearization is switched to "Linear" but the table values are kept. The table can be
switched back on in the "Linearization" (*40/*46) function in the "Linearization" (*4)
function group.

To perform a reset, enter "33333" in the "Reset" (*A3) function in the "Diagnostics" (*A)
function group.

LCAUTION
‣ A reset may negatively impact the measurement. As a rule, a basic setup must be
performed again after a reset. All the calibration data are deleted after a reset. A
complete calibration is needed to put the measurement back into operation.

The default values of each parameter are shown in bold in the menu overview in the
appendix.

6.6 PROFIBUS PA interface

6.6.1 Device address

Selecting the device address


• An address must be assigned to each PROFIBUS PA device. The control system can only
recognize the device if the address is set correctly.
• Each address can only be assigned once in a PROFIBUS PA network.
• Valid device addresses are in the range from 0 to 126. All devices are delivered from the
factory with the software address 126.

Configuring the device address


The address "126" configured at the factory can be used to check the function of the device
and connect it to an operating PROFIBUS-PA system. This address must be changed
subsequently to add additional devices. The following options are available for setting the
address:

Endress+Hauser 39
Operation Gammapilot M FMG60 PROFIBUS PA

• The address can be set via the display and operating module VU331 (in the FHX40).
For this purpose, go to the "Profibus param" function group and enter the desired address
in the "Instrument address" (*60) function.
• The address can be set via FieldCare. For this purpose, go to the "Profibus param"
function group and enter the desired address in the "Instrument address" function.

6.6.2 Device database files (GSD files)


The device database file (x.gsd) contains a description of the properties of the PROFIBUS-
PA device, e.g. the supported data transmission rates or the type and format of the digital
information sent to the PLC. In addition, bitmap files are required to configure a PROFIBUS
PA network and are used to visualize the specific measuring point in the configuration
software. Every device is assigned an ID number by the PROFIBUS User Organization. The
name of the GSD file and related files is derived from this number.

The Gammapilot M has the ID number 1548 (hex) = 5448 (dec).

Where to obtain the GSD files


• www.endress.de
Click "Download" and enter "GSD" as the search string. A list with download links to all the
GSD files available appears under "Software".
• CD-ROM with all the GSD files for E+H devices; Order No.: 50097200
• GSD library of the PROFIBUS User Organization (PNO): http://www.PROFIBUS.com

Directory structure
The files are stored in the following directory structure:

Gammapilot_M/PA/Profile3/Revision1.0/ BMP/ Eh1548_d.bmp

Eh1548_n.bmp

Eh1548_s.bmp

DIB/ Eh1548_d.dib

GSD/ Extended/Eh3x1548.gsd

Standard/Eh3_1548.gsd

Typdat5x/Eh31548x.200 Info/ Liesmich.pdf

Readme.pdf

• The GSD file in the "Extended" directory is needed for the STEP7 programming software
of the Siemens S7-300/400 PLC family.
• The GSD files in the "Standard" directory are used for PLCs which only support an
identifier byte and do not support an identifier format e.g. Allen-Bradley PLC5.
• For the COM ET200 programming software with Siemens S5, the "EH_1548x.200" type
file is used instead of a GSD file and the DIB files are used instead of the BMP files.

Universal database file


As an alternative to the specific GSD file, the PNO provides a universal database file called
PA139700.gsd for devices with an Analog Input block. This file supports the transmission
of the main value. The transmission of a 2nd cyclic value or a display value is not
supported. When using the universal database file, the Profile setting must be selected in
the "Ident Number" (*61) function.

5 e.g. PLC
6 Physical block; device-specific properties, e.g. tag name
7 Display with scaling

The block model shows which data are exchanged continuously (i.e. by cyclic data transfer)
between the Gammapilot M and the PLC. The numbers refer to the function group and
function:
• After linearization and integration in the Transducer block the "Measured value" (*00)
is transmitted to the Analog Input function block. There, it can be scaled and checked to
see whether it exceeds the limit value, and is output via to the PLC "OUT value" (*63).
• The "Select V0H0" (*68) function determines whether the "Measured value" (*00) or
the value from the PLC, "Display value" (*69), is shown on the device display.
• The "2nd cycl. value" (*67) function specifies whether the "Present averaged pulse
rate" (*A5) or the "Medium temperature" (*A7) (measured with an external PT-100
sensor) is output as the second cyclic value.

Modules for the cyclic data telegram


The Gammapilot M makes the following modules available for the cyclic data telegram:
• Main process value
This is the main measured value after scaling by the Analog Input block (*63).
• 2nd cyclic value
This is the current average pulse rate (*A5) or the medium temperature (*A7) measured
by an external PT-100 temperature sensor.
• Display value
This is a random value that is transmitted from the PLC to the Gammapilot M (*69). It
can then be displayed on the device display.
• FREE PLACE
You must use this empty module during configuration if the second cyclic value or the
display value are not to appear in the data telegram (see below).

Endress+Hauser 41
Operation Gammapilot M FMG60 PROFIBUS PA

Configuration of the cyclic data telegram


Use the configuration software for your PLC to compose the data telegram from these
modules in the following ways:
• Main value
Select the "Main process value" module if you only want to transmit the main measured
value.
• Main value and second cyclic value
Select the modules in the order "Main process value", "2nd cyclic value", "FREE
PLACE" if you want to transmit the main measured value and the second cyclic value.
• Main value and display value
Select the modules in the order "Main process value", "FREE PLACE", "Display value" if
you want to transmit the main measured value and read out a display value from the
PLC.
• Main value, second cyclic value and display value
Select the modules in the order "Main process value", "2nd cyclic value", "Display
value" if you want to transmit the main measured value and the second cyclic value and
read out a display value from the PLC.
The way the configuration is actually performed depends on the configuration software
used.

Structure of the input data (measuring device -> PLC)


The input data are transmitted to the PLC with the following structure:

Index input data Data Access Data format/comments

0, 1, 2, 3 Main value (level, density) Read 32-bit floating point number


(IEEE-754)

8E Hex GOOD HI_HI_LIM (alarm active) x

If a status other than "GOOD" is sent to the device, the display indicates an error.

6.6.4 Acyclic data exchange


Acyclic data exchange allows device parameters to be changed independently of the cyclic
data exchange between the device and a PLC. Acyclic data exchange is used:
• To transmit device parameters during commissioning and maintenance
• To display measured variables that are not part of the cyclic data telegram

There are two kinds of acyclic data exchange:

Endress+Hauser 43
Operation Gammapilot M FMG60 PROFIBUS PA

Acyclic communication with a Class 2 master (MS2AC)


In the case of MS2AC, a Class 2 master opens the communication channel via a service
access point (SAP) in order to access the device. Examples of a Class 2 master include:
• FieldCare
• PDM

All the device parameters must be made known to the master before data can be
exchanged via PROFIBUS. Users can choose from the following options:
• A device description (DD)
• A device type manager (DTM)
• A software component within the master that accesses the parameters via slot and index
addresses.
Communication
• The DD or DTM are supplied by the device manufacturer.
• The number of Class 2 masters that can simultaneously communicate with a device
is determined by the number of SAPs available for this communication. The number
of SAPs varies from device to device.
• The use of a Class 2 master increases the cycle time of the bus system. This must be
taken into account when programming the control system or controller.

Acyclic communication with a Class 1 master (MS1AC)


In the case of MS1AC, a master that is already communicating cyclically with the device
additionally opens an acyclic communication channel via the SAP 0x33 (special SAP for
MS1AC). It can then acyclically read or write the parameters via the slot and index
addresses like a Class 2 master.

MS1AC
• Up to now, only a few PROFIBUS masters on the market support MS1AC
• Not all PROFIBUS field devices support MS1AC

LCAUTION
‣ In the user program, avoid permanently writing parameters (e.g. with every program
cycle). Parameters written acyclically are saved as persistent data to the memory
modules (e.g. EEPROM, Flash). The memory modules are only designed for a limited
number of writes. During standard operation without MS1AC (during configuration of
the device), the number of write operations will not come close to reaching this limit. If
the program is not well programmed, however, this limit can be quickly reached. This
would dramatically reduce the lifetime of the device.

7.2 Switching on the device


Error messages A165 "Electronics defect" and A635 "Present date not defined"
The Gammapilot M contains 2 real-time clocks for decay compensation, which are
permanently compared with one another for safety reasons. In order to bridge voltage
interruptions, the clocks are buffered with a capacitor. To ensure that the clocks work
correctly and retain the date in the event of a voltage interruption, this capacitor must
have a minimum charge. If the A165 "Electronics defect" or A635 "Present date not
defined" error message appears after switching on the Gammapilot M, this may
indicate that the capacitor is not yet sufficiently charged. In this case, the Gammapilot
M must be operated at the operating voltage for at least 20 to 30 minutes in order to
charge the capacitor. After this, the correct date must be entered. If the error message
persists after this, it can be deleted by switching the Gammapilot M off and then on
again.
After the supply voltage has been switched on, the device is first initialized. Due to
internal memory tests, this takes approx. 2 minutes.

A Stand alone.
Only one Gammapilot M is required for measuring ranges up to 2 m (6.6 ft)
For larger measuring ranges, any number of Gammapilot M devices can be interconnected (cascade mode).
The devices are defined by software settings as:
B Master
C Slave(s) or
D End slave
1 4 to 20 mA HART; PROFIBUS PA; FOUNDATION Fieldbus

Options/display:
• Stand alone: This option is selected if the Gammapilot M is used as a single, standalone
device.
• Master: This option is selected if the Gammapilot M is located at the beginning of a
cascade chain. It then receives the pulses from a connected slave, adds its own pulses
and calculates the measured value from this total.
• Slave: This option is selected if the Gammapilot M is located in the middle of a cascade
chain. It then receives the pulses from another connected slave or end slave, adds its
own pulses and transmits this total to the next device (master or slave). The calibration
is finished if this option is selected. If several transmitters are cascaded, the rest of the
calibration procedure is performed on the master only.
• End slave: This option is selected if the Gammapilot is located at the end of a cascade
chain. It does not receive pulses from another device but transmits its own pulses to the
next device (master or slave). The calibration is finished if this option is selected. If
several transmitters are cascaded, the rest of the calibration procedure is performed on
the master only.
• Not defined: Is displayed if the operating mode has not yet been selected. An option
must be selected in order to continue with the basic setup.

If a "slave" or an "end slave" is connected to "FieldCare", the pulse rate of this device is
displayed in the header instead of the measured value.

The default value depends on the selected "Measurement mode" (*05):
• Level: 6 s
• Switch: 6 s
• Density: 60 s

Selecting the output damping value


The output damping value depends on the process conditions. Increasing the output
damping value makes the measured value considerably steadier but also slower. In order to

damping value. However, the value selected for output damping should not be too large so
that rapid changes in the measured value can also be detected quickly.

7.4 Calibration for level measurement and point level


detection

7.4.1 General principles


The calibration points for the measurement are entered in the "Calibration" (*1) function
group. Each calibration point consists of a level and the associated pulse rate.

Background calibration
Background calibration refers to the following situation:
• The radiation is switched off
• The vessel is filled as much as possible (ideally 100%) within the measuring range.
The background calibration is necessary in order to register the natural background
radiation at the mounting position of the Gammapilot M. The pulse rate of this
background radiation is automatically subtracted from all other measured pulse rates. This
means that only the part of the pulse rate which originates from the applied radiation
source is displayed and taken into account during signal analysis. As the background
radiation remains virtually constant for the entire measurement duration (as opposed to
the radiation of the source used), background calibration is not included in automatic
decay compensation of the Gammapilot M.

Endress+Hauser 61
Commissioning Gammapilot M FMG60 PROFIBUS PA

Full calibration
Full calibration refers to the following situation:
• The radiation is switched on
• The vessel is filled as much as possible (ideally 100%, at least 60%) within the
measuring range.
If the vessel cannot be filled to at least 60% during the calibration, the full calibration can
alternatively be performed with the radiation switched off. This is a way of simulating a
vessel that is 100% full. In this case, full calibration is identical to background calibration.
As the pulse rate of the background calibration is automatically subtracted, the pulse rate
displayed is around 0 cps.
This type of simulated calibration is not possible with self-radiating media. In this
case, the vessel must be filled to 100% to perform the background and full calibration.

Empty calibration
Empty calibration refers to the following situation:
• The radiation is switched on
• The vessel is emptied as much as possible (ideally 0%, at least 40%) within the
measuring range.

Background calibration
Background calibration refers to the following situation:
• The radiation is switched off.
• The radiation path is completely covered
The background calibration is necessary in order to register the natural background
radiation at the mounting position of the Gammapilot M. The pulse rate of this
background radiation is automatically subtracted from all other measured pulse rates. This
means that only the part of the pulse rate which originates from the applied radiation
source is displayed. As the background radiation remains virtually constant for the entire
measurement duration (as opposed to the radiation of the source used), background
calibration is not included in automatic decay compensation of the Gammapilot M.

Covered calibration
Covered calibration refers to the following situation:
• The radiation is switched on
• The radiation path is completely covered, where possible
If the radiation path cannot be completely covered during the calibration, the covered
calibration can alternatively be performed with the radiation switched off. This is a way of
simulating a completely covered radiation path. In this case, covered calibration is identical

62 Endress+Hauser

to background calibration. As the pulse rate of the background calibration is automatically


subtracted, the pulse rate displayed is around 0 c/s.
This type of simulated calibration is not possible with self-radiating media. In this
case, the radiation path must be completely covered to perform the background
calibration and the covered calibration.

Free calibration
Free calibration refers to the following situation:
• The radiation is switched on
• The radiation path is completely free

Methods for entering the calibration points


Automatic calibration
For an automatic calibration, the vessel is filled to the required value. The radiation
remains switched off for background calibration, while radiation is switched on for all
other calibration points. The Gammapilot M records the pulse rate automatically. The
associated level is entered by the user.

Manual calibration
If one or more calibration points cannot be implemented during the commissioning of the
Gammapilot M (e.g. because the vessel cannot be sufficiently filled or emptied), this
calibration point must be entered manually. This means that both the level and the
associated pulse rate must be entered directly. Please contact Endress+Hauser Service for
any questions regarding the calculation of the pulse rate.
Calibration date and calibration
• The calibration date is not set automatically during manual calibration. It must be
entered by the user in the "Calibration date" (*C7) function.
• A calibration point entered manually should be replaced by an automatic calibration
as soon as the associated level occurs during the operation of the plant. This
recalibration is advisable because calibration points entered automatically result in
more precise measurement results than calculated ones.

7.5 Calibration for density and concentration


measurements

7.5.1 General principles


The calibration points for the measurement are entered in the "Calibration" (*1) function
group. Each calibration point consists of a density value and the associated pulse rate.

Calibration points for density and concentration measurements


Function of the calibration points
In addition to the length of the irradiated measuring path, the Gammapilot M also needs
the following two parameters for density and concentration measurements:
• The absorption coefficient µ of the material measured
• The reference pulse rate I0 2)

It calculates these parameters automatically from the pulse rates of the following
calibration points:
• Background calibration (calibration with radiation switched off)
• Up to nine calibration points for samples of various known densities
In the case of self-radiating media, the background calibration must always be
performed when the pipe is filled. A simulated calibration with an empty pipe is not
possible in this case.

0 1 9

OFF ON

A0018128

0 Background calibration
1-9 Calibration points for various densities

Two-point calibration
Two-point calibration is the recommended calibration procedure to meet strict accuracy
requirements over the entire measuring range. Background calibration is performed first
of all. Afterwards, the two calibration points are entered. These points should be as far
apart as possible. Once the two calibration points have been entered, the Gammapilot M
calculates the I0 and µ parameters on its own.

One-point calibration
A one-point calibration can be performed if a two-point calibration is not possible. This
means that apart from the background calibration only one additional calibration point is
used. This calibration point should be as close as possible to the operating point. Densities
in the proximity of this calibration point are measured quite accurately, but the accuracy
can decrease as the distance from the calibration point increases. In one-point calibration,

2) I0 is the pulse rate when the tube is empty. The value is significantly higher than any real pulse rates occurring during the measurement.

Endress+Hauser 69
Commissioning Gammapilot M FMG60 PROFIBUS PA

the Gammapilot M only calculates the reference pulse rate I0. In this case, it uses the
default value µ = 7.7 mm2/g for the absorption coefficient.

Multiple-point calibration
Multiple-point calibration is recommended particularly for measurements in a large
density range or for particularly accurate measurements. Up to 9 calibration points can be
used over the entire measuring range. The calibration points should be as far apart as
possible and should be evenly distributed over the entire measuring range. Once the
calibration points have been entered, the Gammapilot M calculates the I0 and µ
parameters on its own. Multiple-point calibration is recommended particularly for
measurements in a large density range or for particularly accurate measurements.

Recalibration
The Gammapilot M provides an additional calibration point (calibration point "10") for
recalibration. This point can be entered if the measuring conditions have changed, e.g. as a
result of deposit buildup in the measuring tube. Once the calibration point has been
entered, I0 is recalculated according to the current measuring conditions. The absorption
coefficient µ from the original calibration remains unchanged.

Methods for entering the calibration points


Automatic calibration
In the case of automatic calibration, the calibration point in question is implemented on
the vessel or the measuring tube, i.e. the measuring tube is filled with a medium of the
desired density. The radiation remains switched off for background calibration, while
radiation is switched on for all other calibration points. The Gammapilot M records the
pulse rate automatically. The associated density is determined in the laboratory and
entered by the user.

Manual calibration
In order to achieve a high level of measuring accuracy, it is advisable to determine the
pulse rates for several samples at a constant density and to calculate the average density
and average pulse rate for these samples. These values can then be entered manually in
the Gammapilot M. If possible, this procedure should be repeated at another density. The
two density values should be as far apart as possible.
The calibration date is not set automatically during manual calibration. It must be
entered by the user in the "Calibration date" (*C7) function.

4 Bracket

For horizontal mounting with cooling jacket or collimator (see picture E), the pipe
mounting must be carried out by the customer. Make sure that the clamping forces of
the mounting clamps are sufficient to prevent the FMG60 from slipping off. The
dimensions are described in the chapter "FHG60 mounting device". →  82

LCAUTION
Note the following when mounting the device
‣ The mounting device must be installed in such a way as to withstand the weight of the
Gammapilot M under all anticipated operating conditions.
‣ For measuring lengths of 1 600 mm (63 in) or more, two retainers (vertical) or three
retainers (horizontal) must be used.
‣ The use of the bracket or a support unit fitted by the customer is mandatory if the
device is mounted in a vertical position. Otherwise sufficient stability and support for
the Gammapilot M is not ensured.
‣ For stability reasons the mounting version with the terminal housing positioned at the
top should only be used in exceptional cases.
‣ Clamping solution for pipe mounting required by the customer. Do not use supplied
mounting clamps for pipe. Supplied retainers can be used for FMG60 (see picture E).
‣ To prevent damage to the tube of the Gammapilot M, the maximum torque that can be
applied to tighten the retainer screws is 6 Nm (4.42 lbf ft).

9.10 RMA42, process transmitter with control unit

9.10.1 Measuring principle


The RMA42 process transmitter powers the transmitter and processes analog signals from
transmitters, particularly from the area of process instrumentation. These signals are
monitored, evaluated, calculated, saved, separated, linked, converted and displayed. The
signals, intermediate values and the results of calculations and analysis are transmitted by
digital or analog means.

9.10.2 Measuring system


The RMA42 is a process transmitter that is controlled by a microcontroller and features a
display, analog inputs for process and status signals, analog and digital outputs, as well as
a configuration interface.
Connected sensors can be powered by the integrated transmitter power supply system. The
signals to be measured are converted from analog to digital signals, processed digitally in
the device, and then converted from digital to analog signals and made available at the
various outputs. All measured values, and values calculated in any way, are available as a
signal source for the display, all outputs, relays and the interface. It is possible to make
multiple use of the signals and results (e.g. a signal source is used as an analog output
signal and as a limit value for a relay).
