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 1700 and Model 2700 transmitters can be installed five different ways, only one of
which applies to your specific installation.
• Integral – The transmitter is mounted directly on the sensor. You do not need to
install the transmitter separately, but you will need to connect power supply and I/O
wiring.
