All,
We ordered an ABB WaterMaster for a client. WE did not install or set up the unit, but since installation they have had issues and have yet to be able to place it into service. An ABB Tech has been onsite several times and even installed all new equipment, yet the same issue returned.
I was asked to put eyes on it to see if there was something I could figure out. There is a "220.017 Tx. measurement suspended" fault present and after following the troubleshooting suggestions, we found nothing new. I did however start following the system back and noticed that the transmitters 4-20mA output had been connected to a system that is loop powered and in series with another instrument that requires loop power. This doesn't look right to me but I am not familiar with these WaterMaster units and wanted to reach out...
