Legal information
Warning notice system
This manual contains notices you have to observe in order to ensure your personal safety, as well as to prevent
damage to property. The notices referring to your personal safety are highlighted in the manual by a safety alert
symbol, notices referring only to property damage have no safety alert symbol. These notices shown below are
graded according to the degree of danger.
DANGER
indicates that death or severe personal injury will result if proper precautions are not taken.
WARNING
indicates that death or severe personal injury may result if proper precautions are not taken.
CAUTION
indicates that minor personal injury can result if proper precautions are not taken.
NOTICE
indicates that property damage can result if proper precautions are not taken.
If more than one degree of danger is present, the warning notice representing the highest degree of danger will be
used. A notice warning of injury to persons with a safety alert symbol may also include a warning relating to property
damage.
Qualified Personnel
The product/system described in this documentation may be operated only by personnel qualified for the specific
task in accordance with the relevant documentation, in particular its warning notices and safety instructions. Qualified
personnel are those who, based on their training and experience, are capable of identifying risks and avoiding
potential hazards when working with these products/systems.

2.5 Lithium batteries
Lithium batteries are primary power sources with high energy content designed to represent
the highest possible degree of safety.
WARNING
Lithium batteries
Explosion Hazard - Can cause death or serious injury.
Lithium batteries may present an Explosion Hazard if they are abused electrically or
mechanically. This is in most circumstances associated with the generation of excessive heat
where internal pressure may cause the cell to rupture.
Thus the following basic precautions should be observed when handling and using lithium
batteries:
● Do not short-circuit, recharge or connect with false polarity.
● Do not expose to temperature beyond the specified temperature range or incinerate the
battery.
● Do not crush, puncture or open cells or disassemble battery packs.
● Do not weld or solder to the battery’s body.
● Do not expose contents to water.

Description 3
3.1 Overview
SITRANS FST020 ultrasonic flow meter systems consist of a transmitter and a sensor. The
following table lists the available combinations of transmitters and sensors.
Transmitter Sensor type
FST020 FSS200 family
DN 15 to DN 10m (0.5" to 360")
3.2 Design
The transmitter reads the measured process values from the sensor and calculates derived
values. It provides Modbus communications, 1x 4-20ma, 1x relay, and 1x Pulse/Frequency,
USB service port, and a local display. It also adds functionalities such as totalizers, access
control, diagnostics, and configuration. The local user interface consists of a display and four
buttons for user interaction.
The transmitter has a modular design with discrete, replaceable electronic modules and
connection boards to maintain separation between functions and facilitate field service. All
modules are fully traceable and their provenance is included in the transmitter setup.
The SITRANS FST020 is available as:

Installing/mounting 4
4.1 Chapter overview (transmitter)
This chapter describes how to install the wall mount housing transmitter.
Wall mount housing
The wall mount housing transmitter can be mounted either on a wall or on a pipe (with optional
pipe mount bracket), see Installation instructions (Page 20).
4.2 Installation location requirements
4.2.1 Environment
SITRANS F flowmeters with minimum IP65/NEMA 4X enclosure rating are suitable for indoor
and outdoor installations.
Process pressure and medium temperature
If applicable, make sure that specifications for rated medium temperature (TS) plus ambient
temperature that are indicated on the device nameplate / label will not be exceeded.
Aggressive atmospheres
Ensure that the device is suitable for the application and that it is installed where there is no
risk of penetration of aggressive vapors.
Direct sunlight
Prevent the device from overheating or materials becoming brittle due to UV exposure by
protecting it from direct sunlight. Make sure that the maximum permissible ambient
temperature is not exceeded. Refer to the information in Technical data (Page 65).
WARNING
Electrical shock hazard
May cause death or serious injury
Disconnect power before working on this product.
Upstream / Downstream
Avoid long drop lines downstream from the sensor to prevent the meter pipe from draining.
Avoid installing the sensor upstream of a free discharge in a drop line where possible.
FST020 IP65 NEMA 4X
Operating Instructions, 09/2017, A5E41425845-AB 19

Sensor Location in piping system
The optimum location in the system depends on the presence of excessive gas or air bubbles
in the fluid may result in erroneous measurements. Therefore, it is preferred not to install the
sensor at the highest point in the system, where gas / air bubbles will be trapped. For liquids
it is advantageous to install the sensor in low pipeline sections, at the bottom of a U-section
in the pipeline.
4.2.2 Normal environmental conditions
Normal environmental conditions
This standard applies to equipment designed to be safe at least under the following conditions:
● Indoor and outdoor use
● Altitude up to 2000 m
● Operating temperature -10 °C to 50 °C (14 °F to 122 °F)
● Maximum relative humidity 80 % for temperatures up to 31 °C decreasing linearly to 50 %
relative humidity at 40 °C (104 °F)
● Mains supply voltage fluctuations up to ±10 % of the nominal voltage
● Transient Overvoltages up to the levels of Overvoltage Category II
● Temporary Overvoltages occurring on the Mains supply.
● Pollution Degree II
