New temperature transmitter uses a
two-wire system
Siemens Automation and Drives has developed two new two-wire temperature transmitters for DIN rail mounting, with a choice of HART or PC configuration
The Sitrans TR200 is configured using a PC, whereas the Sitrans TR300 parameters are set via a Hart interface Both devices feature a diagnostics LED, which indicates the function status
In this way, open circuits or short circuits can be quickly detected and corrected especially in the case of a large number of measuring points.
The temperature transmitters have a measuring input for resistance thermometers or thermocouple elements and, in addition, can evaluate resistance-based sensors and millivolt signals.
The new transmitters are therefore universal in application.
The mounting rail system also offers the advantage that the measuring points can be set up centrally away from any harsh environmental conditions.
The devices are then simple to access and can be easily protected against heat and vibration.
