K-MVT Multivariable Transmitter Communications Interface Module

fm_K-MVT Multivariable Transmitter Communications Interface Module-1

Weatherford’s K-MVT multivariable transmitter (MVT) communications interface module (CIM) applies proven “smart” technology to simultaneously measure differential pressure, static pressure and temperature of gas or water flows. It can be used as a gas-flow transmitter for orifice and V-Cone® meters or as a water-flow transmitter for V-Cone meters, replacing up to three transmitters with a single unit. The K-MVT module can be built into the enclosure system of a Weatherford remote terminal unit (RTU) or as a stand-alone, explosion-proof module.

The K-MVT’s speed, accuracy and stability make it effective for use in harsh environments or in situations where electromagnetic interference or radio frequency noise may be a problem.

Features, Advantages and Benefits

• The 4-wire, 100-ohm platinum resistance temperature detector (RTD) interface provides accurate gas-temperature measurement for more accurate overall gas-flow measurement.

• The transmitter is designed for ultra-low power usage, using a smaller battery and solar panel to reduce system costs.

• The industry-standard RS-485 multi-drop serial communications interface is widely applied and supported in the field. With a single four-wire connection, the RTU can communicate with multiple devices for up to 5,000 ft (1,524 m). This capability reduces wiring requirements and simplifies hookup.

• K-MVT sensor technology has been widely proven throughout the industry to provide accurate pressure and temperature compensation, resulting in high-quality measurements that can withstand the scrutiny of an audit.
