Influences on Coriolis Massflow meters

Fluids with gas contents

As a rule all Coriolis meters should be completely filled with homogenious medium. Most problems with Coriolis meters
in the field result from air contents. Indications for gas contents are:

stable zero point at zero flow, high zero point offset

Vibration of the primary

Increasing driver current

Error in density measurement

Bigger flow error

These effects depend on the type of the gas, pressure, temperature, vaporization point of the fluid, gas content, gas
distribution and the size of the gas bubbles. Consequently a prediction of the resulting error is not possible.
The gas phase creates an inbalance of the normally balanced tubes of the meter, which interruptes the mechanical
resoncance loop the meter. Additionally the gas content acts as a damper, which increases the driver current. As worst
case the amplitude of the tubes cannot be kept or the tubes stop vibrating creating the error code density < 0,5kg/l.
The pressure drop of the primary is repsonsible fort he fact that the gas bubbles expand towards the outlet of the
meter, i.e. gas content is bigger at the end of the meter than at the inlet. Increasing gas content reduces the fluid part in
the tubes and creates a flow error.
Gas bubbles act as damper on the tube movements. The average density of the mixture is lower than the density of the
pure fluid. One could expect the resoncance frequency to increase, to show a lower density, but praxis can also show a
bigger damping effect, which results in a decreasing resoncance frequency and an increasing density.
Counteractions

System pressure as high as possible

Orrifice plates at the outlet to oncreas the backpressure
Use of gas separator
Straight inlet sections could create a more homogene distribution of the gas bubbles.
Destroying of the bubbles by flow straighteners or filters
Installing the meter as low as possible
Vertical installation with flow upwards are preferred.

Cavitation

Cavitation means the craetion of voids and bubbles in flowing fluids, when the system pressure is lower than the
vapour pressure of the fluid. This effect can occur at the outlet of the meter and will create, due to acustic effects,
signal processing problems. Worst case could be a signal processing not working at all. In extreme cases cavitation
can be so forceful, that even steel can be damaged.
Counteractions:
Orrifice plate at the outlet and high system pressure
The pressure at the outlet should be 1.5 times the pressure drop.

Temperature

Temperature effects can occur in case of rapid, strong temperature changes during startup or operation. Reason are
the different temperature coefficients of the housing and the measurement tubes. This creates changes in the zero
point of the meter and in the frequency behaviour of the meter. During the changes flow or density errors can occur.
Counteractions:

ABB internal only - CoriolisMaster FCB330, FCB350 | OI/FCB300-EN

A longer warm up time (min. 30min in case of bigger changes) helps as well as an iso lation of the meter. In case
of an external heating the maximum temperature applied, should not exceed the maximum temperatures of the
meter. Otherwise damages of the meter can occur!

Troubleshooting

Coriolis meters are hardly fixable on site. In most cases the only thing one can do on-site is checking whether it is an
application or a meter problem. In case of a meter problem, the unit has to be send back to ABB Gttingen.
As application problems are often very hard to detect, a significant number of meters are send to Gttingen, where no
problem can be found. Mainly application problems can be found afterwards. This shows the importance of a thorough
meter and application check on-site. To avoid unnecessary shipments of the units, before sending the meter please
contact ABB Service at Gttingen.
Finding the error

Analysis of the problem and collecting of all available informationi is the key to succeed. The factory can only
help, when all relevant data is collected. This includes:
What kind of problem exists (accuracy, zero point, errors messages, noise)?
Is the problem only present at certain times?
Is any documentation of the problem available (like data logging etc.)
Precise installation description (Foto?)
Precise description of the application (what kind of process, is the process changing when the
problem occurs, a scheme of the piping)
Please double check all information as often even the customer is not knowing everything in detail
and might not notice some crucial details (like air in the pipe).

Check of the unit

Do not change the values within the submenu instrument and primary calibration
Please check the error codes and try to find the reason with the help of our customer manual.
Please check the wiring.
Please also check the frequency, as faulty wiring can cause a meter to oscillate with a frequency
1.4 times of its normal frequency.
Please check the resistances of the meter as described later on.
Please check the amplitudes of the sensor A and B. The amplitudes should be stable at either
60mV or 30mV, the changes should not exceed approximately 10mV. Specifically at gas
measurements the 10% range can be well used in real life.
Does the primary create noise?
Please check the driver current. If the driver current is unstable, gas bubbles are very likely in the
fluid. Driver current bigger than 40mA are critical as the control loop efficiency is affected heavily
above this value.
If all these checks showed no noticeable problems, the instrument should be ok, and one should proceed with
the installation check
Corresponds the installation to the recommendations in our data sheet and manual? If not: please
try to implement changes
Are there strong vibrations?
Does the piping or the meter produce any noise? If yes, please check for cavitation
Hints for cavitation:
Instable flow- and density signal. Density value is much too low or even creates an error low
density
Ist he zero point stable and close to 0 (<0.1%) If not: ist he density value ok and stable? Is the
driver current stable and within a normal range?
Do not conduct a zero adjustment, when the zero point is unstable or has a big offset (> 0,1%) and the reason
is unknown!
Correcting the calibration factor

The Span oof the primary

The factor for flow is called kappa. Please define first the offset of the verification. Example
Assume the meter shows 0.5% too much flow (+0.5%)
o Please multiply kappa with 0.995
Assume the meter shows 0.5% too little flow (-0.5%)
o Please multiply kappa with 1.005

Checking the sensor

Normal operating driver current

The standard operating driver current should be ca. 5mA. The maximum allowable driver current is 50mA (eff.)
There are no differences between Ex and non-Ex sensors.
The driver current should at all times be capable of keeping the sensor coil amplitudes stable.
Normal operating sensor amplitudes
The amplitudes are adjusted and controlled according to the density of the medium.
Below a density of 0,5kg/l the amplitude should be 60mV.
Above 0,5kg/l the amplitude is 30mV
This can be set manually even at the customer accessible menu level:

Data Link connection Computer converter (TTL)

The DSP electronic provides a sophisticated tool for diagnosis and converter acces: the TTL interface to a standard
computer via Hyperterminal.

3x11
TTL Service Connector
for Standard electronics

You need
Computer with a terminal program (for example HyperTerminal)
TTL-Box,
In case of Fieldbus electronic a FCM2000 Fieldbus adapter
New converter program

You have to
Connect the TTL-Box to the computer and to the service connector of the converter

16 OI/FCB300-EN | CoriolisMaster FCB330, FCB350 ABB internal only

Start the terminal program with the following settings

Please open a new connection with the standard Windows Hyper Terminal. Please choose the following settings and
make sure you selected the right com port number.

In order to connect to the meter it is important to know that the meter software only detects the communication speed
(Bits per second) during startup. So please power down the transmitter, connect the TTL connector and then power up
again.
If you have to connect to the meter without the ability to shut off the power, please select within the transmitter software
-> service code area -> submenu data link -> submenu service connector -> select the Hyperterminal speed instead of
automatic.

How to

compact electronic exchange

Please be aware that changes on the instrument through non ABB personnel may
affect the liability of ABB for this particular instrument. Changes are made on own
risk and responsibility! ABB recommends not conducting changes on the
instrument! Please follow the manual of the meter and your local standards, laws
and regulations.

1.) Please ensure that the power supply is turned off and wait at least 5 minutes.
2.) Disconnect the internal cable looms (2 wires and 10 wires)

2 wires (Driver circuit)

10 wires (temperature and phase sensors)

Please pull the cable loom on the plug itself and not on the cables in order to prevent damages!
3.) Open the 2 screws fixing the electronic module

20 OI/FCB300-EN | CoriolisMaster FCB330, FCB350 ABB internal only

4.) Keep the FRAM as well as the splint.

FRAM splint

5.) Check the type number of the old module and ensure that the new module has the same type number. This
number is placed on the back of the module:

Example type number electronic

Ex 24V:
D674A869U05
Ex 110 - 230V: D674A868U05

6.) Plug in the new module and connect the cable loom. Plug in the FRAM and fix it with the splint.
7.) High Voltage Test
a. In case of 24V electronic no further tests are required.
b. In case of 110V to 265V the European low voltage directive demands manufacturers to conduct a High
voltage test:
L and N

All other connections

i. Short circuit phase and null (L and N) -> test point 1

ii. Short circuit all other terminals (current output, earth, contact output etc.) -> test point 2

ABB internal only - CoriolisMaster FCB330, FCB350 | OI/FCB300-EN

21

iii. A test voltage of 2450VDC has to be applied between point 1 and 2 in the following test cycle:

Voltage [V DC]

2450

time [sec]
2

iv. During this test cycle the current between these 2 test points must not exceed 3mA.!

This High Voltage Test must be conducted by trained personnel! Mishandling can
lead to serious injury or death!
A test procedure not obeying all points above especially time ramps in above
drawing can destroy the electronic or can lead to lethal injuries!
