SubscribeFor efficient process control, accurate and reliable temperature measurement is essential. And, when it comes to temperature measurement in the field, Endress+Hauser’s iTemp TMT162 transmitter delivers reliable results, time after time.
The TMT162 features a brilliant rear-illuminated display: measured values can be easily read from a distance or in difficult conditions, day or night. Set-up is quick and easy and can be done online, so there is no need to disconnect the measuring point when re-programming. What's more, with its dual sensor input, the TMT162 also offers options such as sensor backup, sensor drift recognition, average and discrepancy values and automatic sensor switching.
Accurate and Reliable Temperature Transmitter
Using the free ReadWin software, individual linearisation curves can be generated and configured into the transmitter to increase accuracy. These linearisation curves have between two and 100 sampling points and can be entered as either a resistance figure, a difference in temperature or a milliamp figure against a given temperature. In addition, to further increase measuring point reliability, Callender van Dussen constants can also be programmed into the transmitter to effectively remove sensor error in the temperature loop.
The TMT162 also offers safe process guidance via presettable fault conditioning. It is possible to set three stages (0, 2, 5 seconds) over which the actual analogue output value is 'frozen' before a fault condition is recognised and an alarm is raised. With a presettable fault signal between 21.6 and 23mA, the TMT162 can be easily connected to any of a number of process control systems for maximum versatility.
Critical Temperature Measurements
Offering SIL2 classification and first-rate specifications, the TMT162 temperature transmitter clearly demonstrates what it was designed to do: perform critical temperature measurements in a wide range of industries, including life sciences. HART and FOUNDATION Fieldbus compatible, it's also easily retrofitted into existing systems.
