  • Improved diagnostics (meets NAMUR NE 107).
  • Full complement to overfill capable probes.

The new model will contain the following function blocks:

  • 1 resource block (RB).
  • 3 transducer blocks (TB).
  • 8 analog input blocks (AI).
  • 2 PID blocks.
  • 1 arithmetic block.
  • 1 input selector (IS).
  • 1 signal characteriser block (SC).
  • 1 integrator block (IT).

With this release, a new Model 706 Foundation fieldbus DTM is available on the Magnetrol website. This DTM will offer all of the new features of the exiting Model 706 Hart® DTM.
