Siemens Automation and Drives (A&D) has developed two new temperature transmitters, which use a two-wire system and are designed for rail mounting: the Sitrans TR200 and Sitrans TR300. Sitrans TR200 is configured using a PC, whereas Sitrans TR300 can be parameterised 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 thus suitable for universal use in all sectors. 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 thus simple to access and can be easily protected against heat and vibration.
