1.7 Security information
Siemens provides products and solutions with industrial security functions that support the
secure operation of plants, systems, machines and networks.
In order to protect plants, systems, machines and networks against cyber threats, it is necessary
to implement – and continuously maintain – a holistic, state-of-the-art industrial security
concept. Siemens’ products and solutions constitute one element of such a concept.
Customers are responsible for preventing unauthorized access to their plants, systems,
machines and networks. Such systems, machines and components should only be connected to
an enterprise network or the internet if and to the extent such a connection is necessary and only
when appropriate security measures (e.g. 󹪝rewalls and/or network segmentation) are in place.
For additional information on industrial security measures that may be implemented, please
visit
https://www.siemens.com/industrialsecurity.
Siemens’ products and solutions undergo continuous development to make them more secure.
Siemens strongly recommends that product updates are applied as soon as they are available
and that the latest product versions are used. Use of product versions that are no longer
supported, and failure to apply the latest updates may increase customer’s exposure to cyber
threats.
To stay informed about product updates, subscribe to the Siemens Industrial Security RSS Feed
under
https://www.siemens.com/industrialsecurity.
1.8 Transportation and storage
To guarantee su󹪟cient protection during transport and storage, observe the following:
• Keep the original packaging for subsequent transportation.
• Devices/replacement parts should be returned in their original packaging.
• If the original packaging is no longer available, ensure that all shipments are properly
packaged to provide su󹪟cient protection during transport. Siemens cannot assume liability
for any costs associated with transportation damages.
NOTICE
Insu󹪟cient protection during storage
The packaging only provides limited protection against moisture and in󹪝ltration.
• Provide additional packaging as necessary.

Hazardous area safety requirements
Special conditions for safe use
1. The sensor circuits of the transmitter, type SITRANS FUS060 are exclusively intended for
connection to the associated sensor units of types SITRANS FUS SONO 3100, SITRANS FUS
SONO 3000 and SITRANS FUS SONOKIT, which – for their part – are approved only for
connection to a transmitter of type series SITRANS FUS060.
2. The connecting cable of the transmitter, type SITRANS FUS060 shall be layed as 󹪝xed
installation and in such a way that it is su󹪟ciently protected against damage.
3. The transmitter, type SITRANS FUS060 shall be included in the local equipotential bonding
system.
4. Non-used openings shall be sealed according to EN 60079-0.
Notes for manufacture and operation
For the assembly, mounting and installation only such components (e.g. terminal
compartments, cable glands, Ex cable entries, connection facilities) are approved which
technically comply with the status of the standards given on the cover sheet as a minimum and
for which a separate certi󹪝cate is available. The operating conditions stated in the respective
certi󹪝cates of these components shall be absolutely observed.
Connection requirements
It is required that:
• Electrical connections are in accordance with Elex V (VO in explosion hazardous areas) and
EN60079-14 (Installing Electrical Systems in Explosion Hazardous Areas).
• The protective cover over the power supply is properly installed. For intrinsically safe circuits
the connection area can be opened.
Safety notes
2.3 Installation in hazardous area
SITRANS FUS060 with PROFIBUS PA
14 Operating Instructions, 09/2021, A5E02225054-AD

• Appropriate cable connectors are used for the output circuits:
– Intrinsically safe: blue
– Non-intrinsically safe: black
• Sensor and transmitter are connected to the equipotential bonding system (PA) (min. 4
mm2).
For intrinsically safe output circuits potential equalization must be maintained along the
entire connection path.
• When protective earth (PE) is connected, no potential di󹪜erence between the protective
earth (PE) and the equipotential bonding system (PA) can exist, even during a fault condition.
WARNING
"Flameproof enclosure" type of protection
Only open devices with type of protection "Flameproof enclosure" in hazardous areas when
the power to the device is turned o󹪜, otherwise there is a risk of explosion.
WARNING
500 V insulation test
The device is not capable of withstanding the 500 V insulation test required by Clause
6.3.12 of EN60079-11. This must be taken into account when installing the device.
WARNING
Laying of cables
Cable for use in zone 1 and 2 or 21 and 22 must satisfy the requirements for having a proof
voltage < 500 V AC applied between the conductor/ground, conductor/shield and shield/
ground.
Connect the devices that are operated in hazardous areas as per the stipulations applicable
in the country of operation, e.g. for Ex "d" and "nA", permanent cables must be laid.

3.2 Design
SITRANS FUS060 is an ultrasonic 󹪞ow transmitter engineered for high performance and suitable
for use with 1-path, 2-path, and 4-path 󹪞ow sensors.
The complete 󹪞owmeter consists of an ultrasonic 󹪞ow sensor of the types SONO 3100, SONO
3300 or SONOKIT and the associated SITRANS FUS060 transmitter.

Physical principle
Figure 3-3 Velocity distribution along sound path
A sound wave travelling in the same direction as the liquid 󹪞ow arrives at point B from point A
in a shorter time than the sound wave travelling against the direction of 󹪞ow (from point B to A).
The di󹪜erence in sound transit time indicates the 󹪞ow velocity in the pipe.
Since delay time is measured at short intervals both in and against 󹪞ow direction, temperature
has no in󹪞uence on measurement accuracy.
SITRANS F US 󹪞owmeters
In SITRANS F US 󹪞owmeters the ultrasonic transducers are placed at an angle θ in relation to the
pipe axis. The transducers function as transmitters and receivers of the ultrasonic signals.
Measurement is performed by determining the time the ultrasonic signal takes to travel with and
against the 󹪞ow. The principle can be expressed as follows:
v = K × (tB,A – tA,B) / (tA,B × tB,A) = K × Δt/t²
where
v = Average 󹪞ow velocity
t = Transit time
K = Proportional 󹪞ow factor
This measuring principle o󹪜ers the advantage that it is independent of variations in the actual
sound velocity of the liquid, that is independent of the temperature.
The proportional 󹪞ow factor K is determined by "WET" calibration or calculated by "AUTO" in case
of manual programming of mechanical/geometrical pipe data (SONOKIT only). The transducer
angle (θ), distance between sensors (L) and pipe dimension (Di and Du) are shown in the 󹪝gure
below.
