M800 Transmitter Series Improves Management of Measuring Systems Through Smart and Predictive Maintenance

Transmitters, as the interface between process analytical sensors and the user or control system, are central to successful and efficient production within all process industries. The M800 is the newest premium line multi-channel, multi-parameter transmitter from METTLER TOLEDO. It combines the highest process reliability, thanks to Intelligent Sensor Management (ISM) technology, with easy handling and operation due to the full-color touchscreen display and simple menu structure.

 

Greifensee, Zurich -- (SBWIRE) -- 04/25/2012 -- Stable product quality, process safety and cost reduction are essential success factors for pharmaceutical, food and beverage, biotechnology and chemical companies. Maintenance requirements for sensors and unplanned production downtime resulting from sensor failure affect production and lead to substantial operating costs. Intelligent Sensor Management (ISM) - the most advanced process analytics technology in today's market - reduces sensor maintenance and offers unique diagnostic tools that not only increase sensor lifetime, but also improve the performance and reliability of the complete measurement system.

The METTLER TOLEDO M800 transmitter is fully equipped with ISM functionality. Predictive diagnostics tools such as the Dynamic Lifetime Indicator (DLI), Adaptive Calibration Timer (ACT) and Time to Maintenance (TTM) indicator are clearly displayed via the unique iMonitor feature. The DLI, ACT and TTM enable the user to keep track of the most important information on the state of the measuring system . Warnings and alarms are color coded and clearly displayed. In addition, the M800 transmitter features configuration options allowing smart and proactive maintenance and, as a result, cost optimized management of measuring systems.

With its full-color, high-resolution touchscreen, clearly structured menus and user management functions, the M800 sets a new standard in user friendly transmitter operation.

The M800 is a multi-parameter, multi-channel device. The same series can monitor pH/ORP, conductivity, amperometric oxygen (DO as well as O2 gas) and, depending on the type selected, optical DO, ozone and flow. The M800 transmitter series includes models with up to four channels for measurement of the same or different parameters, depending on the sensor installed for the application.
