Metal Samples' new compact MS2601E ER Transmitter (ERT) measures all types of electrical resistance (ER) corrosion probes. The new high-resolution, 16-bit measurement provides faster response, obtaining corrosion rates in hours instead of days. The transmitter is provided in a weather-proof (IP 66 / NEMA-4X) enclosure and is flame-proof certified. It is designed to be mounted directly to the probe, but can also be mounted nearby using the optional mounting kit and a customer-supplied mounting pole. The MS2601E is completely loop-powered with an in-built isolator, so installation is simple. No external isolator/barrier is necessary. A two-wire connection is all that is required for both instrument power and data transmission. Setup is also simple, using a set of switches to select the probe type to be measured.
