The 7ME3960-0CR12 is a clamp-on RTD cable belonging to the SITRANS FS220 ultrasonic flowmeter family. It's the temperature-sensing link between the flowmeter electronics and the pipe-mounted clamp-on transducer pair — without that RTD signal, the flow computer can't do the temperature compensation that makes ultrasonic transit-time metering hold its accuracy across process temperature swings. Submersible construction and a -40 to +200 °C (-40 to +392 °F) range mean this cable is specced for outdoor or wet-pit installations where the cable sees direct exposure to weather or washdown. The 15 m (50 ft) length gives enough reach from a top-side flow computer down to a below-grade pipe run.
Sourcing reality — active, but not off-the-shelf
Export Control Classification is EAR99I — no ITAR or Wassenaar restrictions, so cross-border sourcing doesn't trigger an export license review. AL: N means no German national export control applies either.
Compliance flags — RoHS exemption
This product is not RoHS-compliant. REACH candidate-list disclosure is noted but no specific substances are listed in the evidence.
