1.1 Flowmeter components
The transmitter is one component of a Micro Motion flowmeter. The other major
component is the sensor.
A third component, called the core processor, provides additional memory and processing
functions.
1.1.1 Installation types
Model 1500 and Model 2500 transmitters can be installed two different ways, only one of
which applies to your specific installation.
• 4-wire remote – The transmitter is installed remotely from the sensor. You need to
mount the transmitter separately from the sensor, connect a 4-wire cable between
the transmitter and sensor, and connect power and I/O wiring to the transmitter.
