The Spirax Sarco M741 intelligent digital display can be used with TVA or TFA flowmeters for high-precision metering of saturated steam or superheated steam (TVA only) mass flow. It offers diverse installation options, available in wall-mounted and panel-mounted configurations.
Features
- Forms a high-precision flow measurement system when used with TVA/TFA flowmeters.
- Suitable for saturated steam or superheated steam (TVA only).
- Automatically saves up to 65,536 sets of the latest historical data, with configurable saving intervals. Automatically plots historical curves for flow, temperature, and pressure; coordinate start and end points can be configured.
- Real-time clock and automatic timing meter reading functions bring convenience to measurement management.
- Can perform data communication with host computers to form an energy measurement network system.
- Provides +24V DC power supply (with short circuit protection) for the transmitter to power the TVA/TFA, simplifying the system and saving investment.
- Password settings prevent unauthorized personnel from changing configured data.
- No adjustable components such as potentiometers or coding switches are installed inside the instrument, thereby improving vibration resistance, stability, and reliability.
- Specially designed WDT circuit, power-on reset circuit, and power-off data protection circuit ensure normal instrument operation when powered on and prevent data loss during power outages. Power-off data protection does not require a backup battery, and the protection duration is 10 years.
Options and Appearance
- Wall-mounted type: Features a stainless steel meter box. Weight: 8kg. External power supply is 220Vac, internally regulated to 24Vdc for use.
- Panel-mounted type: Installed on a console or existing control cabinet. Weight: 2kg. Standard power supply is 220Vac; 24Vdc is optional (must be specified when ordering).
Installation
The panel-mounted instrument is fixed to the instrument panel via two mounting brackets (included). The wall-mounted type is fixed to a wall or column via three M6 screws.

Technical Parameters
The M741 signal comes from the TVA/TFA. The TVA/TFA uses digital communication to transmit measured data to the M741. The M741 can accurately display the data shown on the TVA/TFA LCD screen without any loss of accuracy.

Power Supply Note
If using a UPS power supply, it is recommended to install a 10VA isolation transformer in the power supply circuit to prevent high-frequency signal interference.
