1.3 Required differential pressure
Density transducers of the DIMF series measure independent of the flow rate and also at zero flow rate.
Their application is, therefore, normally problem-free. However, it has to be ensured that the operating
flow rate in the transducer
- updates the sample fast enough
- equalises the temperature in the transducer
- prevents air or gas bubbles or
deposits in the oscillating tube
- does not cause cavitation in the oscillating tube
- does not cause wear through abrasives
From experience, the following operating flows are recommended to ensure a sufficiently fast sample
update:
DIMF 1.3 0.3 to 1 ℓ/min
DIMF 2.0 1.5 to 6 ℓ/min
DIMF 2.1 20 to 50 ℓ/min

2 Intended use
The DIMF density transducer allows the continuous measurement of the density or concentration of
liquids and liquid mixtures.
The proven oscillation fork principle (DIMF 1.3) or oscillating element principle (DIMF 2.0 and 2.1) ensures
a high-degree of accuracy in combination with outstanding long-term stability. The simple construction
assures reliable operation even under tough process conditions.
3 Measuring principle
DIMF 1.3
The real sensor of the density transducer is a hollow oscillation fork. The liquid to be measured passes
continuously through the oscillation fork. Excited electromagnetically by an exitation coil, it will oscillate at
its natural frequency. Changes in the density of the liquid lead to changes in the natural frequency. This
change in frequency, sensed by a pick-up coil, represents the measurement effect. An additional built-in
resistance thermometer measures the process temperature, which can also be used to equalise the
temperature influence in the transducer.
Each density transducer is calibrated with various liquids of different densities. The transducer constants
for calculating the density from the frequency, the calibration temperature and the correction coefficients
for the temperature influence can be seen in the configuration data protocol (see section 0 for example).
DIMF 2.0 and 2.1

The real sensor of the density transducer is an oscillating element in the form of a tube bent into a
oscillation fork. The liquid to be measured passes continuously through this element. Excited
electromagnetically by an exitation coil, it will oscillate at its natural frequency. Changes in the density of
the liquid lead to changes in the natural frequency. This change in frequency, sensed by a pick-up coil,
represents the measurement effect. An additional built-in resistance thermometer measures the process
temperature, which can also be used to equalise the temperature influence in the transducer.
Each density transducer is calibrated with various liquids of different densities. The transducer constants
for calculating the density from the frequency, the calibration temperature and the correction coefficients
for the temperature influence can be seen in the configuration data protocol (see section 0 for example).
4 Installation
In principle, the density transducer can be installed directly in the main product line (see section 0 for
possible flow rates). Installation in a by-pass is recommended for higher flow rates or measurements at
containers.
4.1 Installation in the main product line
Installation in the main product line is possible up to a flow rate of (see details in section 1.3) (example
water). Differing pressure losses have to be considered for other viscosities.
Caution!
The pressure in the product line should never fall below the vapour pressure. Keep density transducer out
of direct sunlight. If necessary, heat insulation has to be provided. Only half of the supporting tube should
be provided with heat insulation.

6.2 Additional requirements in explosion hazardous area for intrinsically safe operation
- Observe installation regulations in accordance with DIN EN 60079-14 / VDE 0165 Part 1
- Connected loads power supply voltage
U0 = 30 V I0 = 110 mA P0 = 825 mW
Ci ≤ 34 nF Li ≤ 0.6 mH
- The supply of power has to be via a certified, intrinsically safe supply unit or via
safety barriers.
- In order to connect the equipotential bonding conductor safely, use the
internal and external equipotential bonding connector terminals, which have been designed
for a connection cross section of 1.5 mm² (inside) or 4 mm² (outside).
- If barriers are part of the supply circuit, they also have to be connected to the common
equipotential bonding connector.
7 Commissioning
- Flush pipes before connecting the density transducer
- Ensure that all connections are tight
- De-aerate the density transducer
- Switch on power supply
8 Factory setting
The density transducers of the DIMF series have been parameterised according to your specifications.
After switching on the power supply, the specified parameters (density, reference density, concentration,
etc.) and the operating temperature are shown on the display.
If these parameters have changed since the order was placed, the setting can be modified (see section 0
“Configuration, Operation”)
9 On-site adjustment
An on-site adjustment is carried out if a deviation has been detected due to certain changes in on-site
conditions, after checking the error reasons according to section 0. A simple adjustment can be carried
out by changing the transducer constant K0.
Example: Measured condition The temperature has to be relatively stable
Rho (measured density) = 996.6 Kg/m³

Rho (setpoint value) = 996.0 Kg/m³ (e.g. value stated in table)
difference = + 0.6 Kg/m³

current K0 value = - 7360.708 Kg/m³
Setpoint K0 value = K0 (current) – difference
Setpoint K0 value = - 7360.708 Kg/m³ - 0.6 Kg/m³

= - 7361.308 Kg/m³
The value now has to be programmed into the TR transmitter.
If possible, the constants K1 and K2 should not be modified by the user.
Page 12 of 49
10 Configuration, operation
The transmitter can be configured (operated) in two different ways
1. HART communication
2. On-site via keys and display
10.1 Operation via HART communication
The device can be operated using a PC or laptop and the PACTware operating software in connection
with a HART interface. PACTware and the respective driver can be downloaded from our website
www.burmt.de.
A HART communicator (e.g. handheld HC-375 from Emerson) is another operating element which can
be used. The operating functions for HC-375 are defined in a DDL (Device Description Language). Using
the HC-375 it is possible to operate or configure the DIMF on-site. The connection is described in section
16.
The Device Description Language (DDL) can be downloaded from the Internet (HART Foundation).
10.1.1 Process variables

Measured value: The current measured value is displayed. The measured value can be selected
from a list with density or concentration operating
modes. The units are defined in this list. The measured value
is permanently assigned to the HART primary variable and thus also the
current output.
Operating density,
reference density,
frequency, temperature: The uncorrected or the temperature-corrected operating density, reference
density oscillation frequency and the medium temperature can also be displayed
in the concentration mode and transmitted via HART variables 2 to 4.
The assignment can be freely selected.
Output range %: Display of the current measured value in % [(I-4)/16].
Output current: Display of the setpoint value of the present current output in mA.
10.1.2 Diagnosis
Communication status
Device address: The device address for polling operation can be assigned a value of between 1
and 15. Address = 0 means analogue operation, address> 0 means polling
operation. If the DIMF is to be installed in a multidrop application,
an address of between 1 and 15 must be specified. To achieve this, the DIMF
has to at first be configured with the desired address in a point-to-point
connection.
Number of preambles: The read value indicates how many preambles the master has to send to the
slave in its inquiry. The written value indicates how many preambles
the DIMF has to send to the master.

approx. 0.25 s.
Upper/Lower
measuring range: The measuring ranges are factory-programmed in DIMF for
each application.
Minimum measuring span: The measuring span can be freely defined within the measuring ranges.
However, the set values should not fall below the minimum
measuring span, as this can cause step changes of the output voltage.
Page 14 of 49
10.1.4 Output signal

Upper measuring range value: Characteristic value for the 20 mA point.
Lower measuring range value: Characteristic value for the 4 mA point.
Selection of the measured variable: The measured variable is assigned to the HART primary
variable and thus also to the current output (operating modes) When
displaying density, the user can select between either operating density or
reference density. When calculating the concentration, it is possible to select
between the various methods.
Current simulation: In order to check the devices connected in series, a fixed output current of
3.9 to 22 mA can be set. After the tests, the current value
0 mA has to be entered to end the simulation.
Alarm 21.8 mA: An alarm signal can be transmitted via the current loop. The current then rises
to 21.8 mA. This alarm is generated due to malfunctioning of the DIMF. The
alarm function can be switched off.
See Error Code Table 13.2.1
10.1.5 Special settings
Electronic adjustment
Calibrate current output: The characteristic of the analogue current output can be calibrated in its zero
point at 4 mA and in its slope at 20 mA. Always ensure that the zero point is
calibrated before the upper range value.
Reset device: Via this command, the device can be reset to a defined operating state
present after the supply voltage was applied.
10.2 Key operation (configuration via the control unit)
The screw cover at the longer end of the housing has to be open in order to operate the keys. The
housing protection class is not guaranteed if the cover is open.
After configuration, the cover has to be refitted and firmly hand-screwed (be careful not to damage the
sealing ring).
The housing at the connection side of the Exd version should only be removed after it
! has been ensured that there is no explosive atmosphere.
The terminal chamber cover of the Exd version is secured against opening. Open the cover by loosening
the screw and turning the locking bar to the side. Clamp the bar in this position. Secure the cover after
closing it.

11 Calculation methods
11.1 Determination of the hydrometer degrees
For the determination of the hydrometer degrees, calculation of the reference density occurs via
equation 3. The reference temperature for this is specified.
The equations for converting the hydrometer scales as well as the respective reference temperature are
compiled in the following table:
Reference
Liquids heavier than Liquids lighter than

The calculation method is determined by the choice of operating mode (see table “Operating mode switch”
in section 10.3).
11.2 Mesh point interpolation
With this calculation method the reference density or the concentration is determined by a table
interpolation from the measured operating density (basic equation section)
To achieve this, the connection, e.g. between concentration, density and temperature c=f(ρ,t), is specified
in tabular form. The table can contain max. 400 mesh points, with max 80 lines or columns.
The material values have to be present as an Excel table in the following form:
t
ρ Temperature
Concentration
Density
e.g. concentration table

c
(max. 400 points*)
* e.g. 80 density values for 5 temperatures
Page 21 of 49
The calculation of the concentration occurs via linear interpolation. The unit results from the specified
table values.
The creation of the mesh point table from available material values and the transfer of the table values to
the transducer occurs via the PACTware configuration software.
11.3 Default concentration
Default concentrations are stored in the transmitter from software version 4 and higher. The respective
medium constants can be changed via the keys.
The following 11 mediums are programmed:
Display Medium Cmin Cmax Tref

AEtHA-1 Ethanol 5 20 20
AEtHA-2 Ethanol 90 100 20
nAtron Sodium 20 50 20
hydroxide
SALPE-1 Nitric acid 2 40 20
SALPE-2 Nitric acid 40 70 20
SALZ Hydrochloric 10 30 20
acid
SULPHUr Sulphuric acid 10 60 20
SUGAr-1 Sugar solution 0 20 20
• Press the “↵” key to select the lower display line. The activated line is indicated by a small arrow
(►) next to the channel number.
• Use the arrow keys “▲” and “▼” to select channel “E”.
• Press the “P” key. The right hand position of channel “E” flashes.
• Use the arrow keys to change the value to “2” and press the “↵” key to confirm it (authorisation to
change the settings is thus provided).
• Use the arrow key “▲” to move to the “=” level. The currently set data set, e.g. AEtHA-1 or
AEtHA-2 or nAtron, etc. is displayed there.
• Press the “P” key. The current data set, e.g. AEtHA-1, flashes.
• Use the arrow keys “▲” and “▼” to select the fluid data:
e.g. AEtHA-1 or AEtHA-2 or nAtron, etc.
• Press the “↵” key to confirm the selection.
• Use the arrow keys “▲” and “▼” to select level “3” for displaying the temperature.
The selected fluid data is now used to calculate the concentration. The current concentration is displayed
in channel “0” if the operating mode 02, 30 or 32 has been set. If this is not the case, the first two digits
must be set accordingly in channel “E” (see Operating mode switch channel E, page 24).
If the fluid data changes, check channels 5 and 6 to ensure that the lower range and upper range values
of the concentration measuring range are correct. If this is not the case, both these values must be
changed.
The fluid data stored in the device is only valid in a range between Cmin and Cmax.
Page 22 of 49
11.4 Customer-specific concentration settings
Besides the permanently programmed default concentrations, the customer can store 5 further
concentrations in the transmitter. These can be retrieved at the “=” level from the storage locations
25 to 29. Use “↵” to save the liquid parameters in channels n, o, p, q, r and u.
The parameters stored at locations 25 to 29 can be changed via the keypad. Customers can save their
liquid parameters at one of the storage locations and then place their parameters in the corresponding
channel n – U by selecting level “=” and reselecting a storage location.
Procedure for programming a parameter set at a storage location in level “=”
• Activate the service level in channel “E”.

• Select channel “=”.
• Select the respective storage level, e.g. [ 25 ].
• Enter the parameter set in the channels n, o, P, q, r and U (polynominal coefficients according to
the configuration data sheet).
• Select channel “=”.
• Use the “▲” or “▼” key to select the next storage level to be programmed.
Please note that data is only saved when exiting a level or selecting another level!
12 Maintenance
Maintenance work involves cleaning and zero point adjustment.
Cleaning
The density transducer should be cleaned according to the sedimentation tendencies of the measured
liquid. The simplest cleaning method is to increase the flow velocity through the density transducer to the
maximum permissible value for a few minutes in order to flush away any sediment and solids. If this
measure is not successful, the density transducer should be cleaned with special detergent if flushing
connections are provided according to section 4.2. Always observe the corrosion resistance of the density
transducer material.
Zero point adjustment

Abrasion, sedimentation or corrosion can cause the zero point of the density transducer to shift: The zero
point shift can be established via a comparison measurement and rectified by an on-site adjustment (see
sections 0 and 0).
Page 23 of 49
13 Error detection / Troubleshooting

Periodical inspections of the density transducer facilitate error detection and can provide information about
possible error sources.
The inspection can usually be limited to a comparison between the value measured by the density
transducer and a reference measurement (e.g. sampling with laboratory measurement or a comparison
density meter connected in series).
It is essential that the reference measurement is sufficiently reliable and accurate (if necessary,
calibratable) to ensure correct results. During this comparison, ensure that the reference conditions are
comparable to actual operating conditions (if necessary, take the temperature coefficient of the used liquid
into consideration).
If the value measured by the density transducer does not match the result of the reference measurement,
carry out the following measures:
- Inspect the evaluation electronics (transmitter)
(electronic connection and power supply as well as cabling to the density transducer).
- Ensure that the data of the configuration log or the
service list and the programmed parameters of the evaluation electronics are identical.
- Inspect the density transducer for damages
(temper colours on the housing due to high temperature as well as obvious mechanical
defects, e.g. damaged electronic housing, gasket, terminal clamp, etc.).
- Look for process-related malfunctioning (e.g. empty product line, gas bubbles).
A seriously damaged density transducer should be disassembled and returned to Bopp & Reuther
Messtechnik (see section 0).
Otherwise, troubleshooting should be carried out as described below. There are three general sources of
error:
- Errors caused by the liquid
- Errors caused by the transmitter
- Errors caused by the transducer

Errors caused by sedimentation, corrosion and abrasion can often be detected once the density
transducer has been disassembled.
If necessary, the density transducer should be returned to Bopp & Reuther Messtechnik (see section 0)
for recalibration, or carry out an on-site adjustment (see section 0) using the offset value K0.
