Application

Linearized temperature measurement with RTD or TC sensor.
Converts analog mA signals into digital values on the bus communication.
Difference, average or redundancy temperature measurement with RTD or TC sensor.
Linear resistance, potentiometer and bipolar mV measurement.

Technical characteristics

Bus transmitter with both PROFIBUS PA and FOUNDATION™ Fieldbus communication. A unique switch function ensures automatic shift between the two protocols.
Set-up for PROFIBUS PA can be done via Siemens Simatic® PDM®, ABB Melody / Harmony and Metso DNA software and for FOUNDATION Fieldbus via Emerson DeltaV, Yokogawa CS 1000 / CS 3000, ABB Melody / Harmony and Honeywell Experion software.
Built-in simulation mode function.
Polarity-independent bus connection.
24 bit A/D converter ensures high resolution.
PROFIBUS PA function blocks: 2 analog.
FOUNDATION Fieldbus function blocks: 2 analog and 1 PID.
FOUNDATION Fieldbus capability: Basic or LAS.

Mounting / installation

Mounted vertically or horizontally on a DIN rail. Using the 2-channel version up to 84 channels per meter can be mounted.
