The Micro Motion Series 3000 is a family of Coriolis transmitter, controller, and peripheral devices designed for industrial flow measurement and application-specific process control. Models such as the 3500 transmitter and the 3700 transmitter/controller use Micro Motion digital signal processing technology to deliver reliable measurement data and support advanced application functions.
Depending on the selected model and software configuration, Series 3000 devices can provide batch control, net oil calculations, enhanced density measurement, and marine fuel bunkering functions. The family includes different mounting styles and I/O arrangements to suit control-room installations and field applications.

Technical Highlights & Selection Considerations
- Model selection: Series 3000 includes different transmitters, controllers, and peripheral devices. Confirm the exact model, such as 3300, 3350, 3500, or 3700, before ordering.
- Sensor compatibility: Verify compatibility with the specific Micro Motion Coriolis sensor and required wiring arrangement.
- Mounting style: Rack, panel, and field-mount options are model-dependent and are not interchangeable without checking the installation requirements.
- Process functions: Batch control, net oil measurement, enhanced density, and marine bunkering capabilities depend on the selected model and configured application.
- I/O requirements: Check the required analog, frequency, discrete, and digital communication interfaces against the control system.
- Power supply: Supply voltage and power requirements vary by model and mounting configuration.
- Replacement projects: For legacy installations, confirm hardware revision, firmware, terminal arrangement, and communication compatibility before selecting a replacement.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q1: What is the Micro Motion Series 3000 used for?
It provides Coriolis flow and density measurement and, on supported models, integrated process control functions for industrial applications.
Q2: What variables can it measure?
With a compatible sensor, the system can provide mass flow, volume flow, density, and temperature. Concentration and other calculated variables depend on the selected model and application configuration.
Q3: Does the Series 3000 support batch control?
Yes. Batch control is available on supported transmitter/controller models and can be used for filling, loading, and other controlled transfer processes.
Q4: Can it be used for custody transfer?
Yes. The Series 3000 family supports compatible custody transfer systems. Confirm the model, sensor, system approvals, and metrology requirements for the intended installation.
Q5: What mounting options are available?
Mounting options vary across the family and include rack-mount, panel-mount, and field-mount configurations.
Q6: How do I choose the correct Series 3000 model?
Start by identifying the connected sensor, required measurement variables, process-control functions, mounting style, I/O requirements, and any custody transfer or hazardous-area approvals. For an existing installation, use the original model and configuration details to confirm compatibility.
