Endress Hauser Flow Meter Software Integration: FieldCare and DeviceCare Calibration Tools
Quick Answer: Silver Automation Instruments flow meters with HART 7 or Modbus RTU outputs work with Endress Hauser FieldCare and DeviceCare. You can run zero calibration, 4-20 mA trim, device addressing, and save configuration files without replacing your plant software. For a fast quote, send your pipe diameter (DN15 to DN300), fluid name, flow range, pressure (bar), and temperature (°C).
FieldCare and DeviceCare in a Flow Meter Project
In your plant, Endress Hauser flow meter software integration usually starts with a loop scan in FieldCare or a direct connection in DeviceCare. DeviceCare is a small tool from Endress Hauser. Use it for direct connection to one device at a time. FieldCare is larger. Use it for plant asset management and batch configuration. A field technician usually connects DeviceCare through a USB HART modem or an RS485 converter. FieldCare reads HART, PROFIBUS, FOUNDATION Fieldbus, and Modbus loops.
Silver Automation Instruments supplies Coriolis, electromagnetic, ultrasonic, vortex, oval gear, and thermal mass flow meters with HART or Modbus outputs. These meters appear in FieldCare after the loop scan. The software reads primary variables like mass flow in kg/h, volume flow in m3/h, density in g/cm3, and temperature via PT100. In practice, most engineers skip the advanced DTM screens. They need zero, span, and loop trim.
Calibration Steps Using DeviceCare
Start with loop wiring. Use a 24 V DC power supply. For HART devices, connect a HART modem across a 250 ohm loop resistor. DeviceCare scans HART addresses 0 to 15. If you have multiple meters on one loop, set a unique address for each. For Modbus RTU, wire RS485 A and B. Set baud rate to 9600 or 19200. Match parity and stop bits in FieldCare.
Then load the device file if the host asks. Silver Instruments HART devices support standard HART commands and DD files. FieldCare reads mass flow, density, temperature, and totalizer values. A chemical site in Vietnam used DeviceCare to zero eight Silver Instruments Coriolis meters in one morning. The meters had flow ranges from 40 kg/h to 1200 kg/h for solvent dosing. The site saved one configuration file and copied it to all eight devices.
Meter Selection for FieldCare and DeviceCare
For raw water and wastewater, use the Silver Instruments SCE electromagnetic flowmeter with HART output. Sizes from DN15 to DN600 cover flow velocities from 0.2 m/s to 12 m/s. The process liquid needs conductivity above 5 µS/cm. If conductivity is lower, use an ultrasonic or

For edible oil, palm oil, or chemical batching, use the Silver Instruments SCC Coriolis mass flowmeter with HART 7. It reads mass flow in kg/h, density in g/cm3, and temperature via PT100. For fuel oil up to 500 cP, choose the Silver Instruments SOF oval gear flowmeter with pulse or 4-20 mA output. A paint manufacturer in Malaysia used SOF oval gear meters to measure solvent at 2 bar and 30 °C. FieldCare trended the total flow and export records for the plant log.
Countries and Industries We See
Water plants in the Philippines and Australia use DeviceCare for loop checks on electromagnetic meters. Oil and gas terminals in the Middle East use FieldCare to manage HART loops on Coriolis and vortex meters. Food and beverage plants in Thailand keep HART wiring because they do not want radio signals inside a processing hall. A customer in Vietnam asked us to set the HART burst mode off because the site SCADA system needed a stable 4-20 mA update. These are small details that save time later.

FAQ
Can Silver Instruments flow meters work with Endress Hauser FieldCare?
Yes. Any Silver Instruments meter with HART 7 or Modbus RTU output can be scanned by FieldCare. HART DD files are available from Silver Instruments.
Does DeviceCare support Bluetooth or USB connections to Silver Instruments meters?
DeviceCare works best with a HART modem or USB HART interface. Some Silver Instruments models also allow local calibration from the display without software.
What calibration points should I set for a Coriolis meter measuring palm oil?
Zero the meter at no flow. Set density with water or air. Trim temperature against a PT100 reference. Pressure does not change the mass flow calibration.
Can FieldCare store calibration records for audits?
Yes. FieldCare can save parameters, calibration timestamps, and pass/fail results. Many sites in Southeast Asia use this for ISO 9001 audit records.
What is the minimum conductivity for an electromagnetic flowmeter in DeviceCare?
The liquid should be above 5 µS/cm. For demineralized water below 5 µS/cm, use an ultrasonic flowmeter or a Coriolis meter instead.
