The Siemens Industry Automation Division has extended its range of temperature sensors to include the Sitrans TS product family. The new resistance thermometers and thermocouples are designed for universal use. The device line has a modular design, and offers a large range of sizes, materials, sensors and transmitters. It not only supports the central communication standards HART, Profibus PA and Foundation Fieldbus, but is also certified under ATEX and IECEx, which enables the devices to be used worldwide. Sitrans TS is suitable for both basic and highly demanding applications throughout the process industry.
The modular product family consists of the three product lines TS100, TS200 and TS500. They are suitable for a wide range of applications, such as in the fields of chemicals, oil, gas and power. The product portfolio is clearly structured. Certain designs are certified under ATEX and IECEx as being flameproof for gas and dust, intrinsically safe, and Ex n. This has advantages for globally active users, especially in the fields of logistics, inventory management and documentation.
The Sitrans TS100 and TS200 product series are available as cable and compact thermometers. This makes them especially suitable for universal use, such as detecting the temperatures of machine bearings. The compact insertion thermometers can also be used in confined spaces and their mineral insulated design makes them not only flexible but also resistant to vibrations and temperatures up to 1100°C. The TS500 is designed for applications with low to high process stresses. A selection of protective tubes made of solid or welded pipe material is available for this purpose. The user can choose from a wide range of process connections, connection heads, sensor types, transmitters and displays to configure individual solutions for a process.
