Warning

2 Wire Programmable Transmitter TXUN-ST/FM

  • RTD, TC, Ohm, or mV input
  • Extremely high measurement accuracy
  • 1.5 kVAC galvanic isolation
  • Programmable sensor error value
  • For DIN form B sensor head mounting
  • TXUN-FM is the FM approval version of TXUN-ST

Application

  • Linearised temperature measurement with Pt100…Pt1000, Ni100…Ni1000, or TC sensor.
  • Conversion of linear resistance variation to a standard analogue current signal, for instance from valves or Ohmic level sensors.

Q502

The entity concept
The Transmitter must be installed according to National Electrical Code (ANSI- NFPA 70) and shall be installed with the enclosure, mounting, and spacing segregation requirement of the ultimate application.

Equipment that is FM-approved for intrinsic safety may be connected to barriers based on the ENTITY CONCEPT. This concept permits interconnection of approved transmitters, meters and other devices in combinations which have not been specifically examined by FM, provided that the agency’s criteria are met. The combination is then intrinsically safe, if the entity concept is acceptable to the authority having jurisdiction over the installation.

The entity concept criteria are as follows:

The intrinsically safe devices, other than barriers, must not be a source of power. The maximum voltage Ui(VMAX) and current Ii(IMAX), and maximum power Pi(Pmax), which the device can receive and remain intrinsically safe, must be equal to or greater than the voltage (Uo or VOC or Vt) and current (Io or ISC or It) and the power Po which can be delivered by the barrier.

The sum of the maximum unprotected capacitance (Ci) for each intrinsically device and the interconnecting wiring must be less than the capacitance (Ca) which can be safely connected to the barrier.

The sum of the maximum unprotected inductance (Li) for each intrinsically device and the interconnecting wiring must be less than the inductance (La) which can be safely connected to the barrier.

The entity parameters Uo,VOC or Vt and Io,ISC or It, and Ca and La for barriers are provided by the barrier manufacturer.
