CONSIDERATIONS
GeneralElectrical temperature sensors, such as resistance temperature detectors
(RTDs) and thermocouples (T/Cs), produce low-level signals proportional to
temperature. The 3144P transmitter converts low-level signals to HART or
F
OUNDATION fieldbus signals. This signal is then transmitted to the control
room via two power/signal wires.
Electrical Proper electrical installation is essential to prevent errors due to sensor lead
resistance and electrical noise. The current loop must have between 250 and
1100 ohms resistance for HART communications. Refer to Figure 2-10 on
page 2-11 for sensor and current loop connections. F
devices must have proper termination and power conditioning for reliable
operation. Shield cables must be used for F
may only be grounded in one place.

Environmental Temperature Effects
The transmitter will operate within specifications for ambient temperatures
between –40 and 185 °F (–40 and 85 °C). Heat from the process is
transferred from the thermowell to the transmitter housing. If the expected
process temperature is near or beyond specification limits, consider the use of
additional thermowell lagging, an extension nipple, or a remote mounting
configuration to isolate the transmitter from the process. Figure 1-1 describes
the relationship between housing temperature rise and extension length.

Example:
The maximum permissible housing temperature rise (T) can be calculated
by subtracting the maximum ambient temperature (A) from the
transmitter’s ambient temperature specification limit (S). For instance,
suppose A = 40 °C.
T = S - A
T = 85 °C – 40 °C
T = 45 °C
3044-0123A
Moist or Corrosive
Environments
For a process temperature of 540 °C (1004 °F), an extension length of 3.6
inches (91.4 mm) yields a housing temperature rise (R) of 22 °C (72 °F),
which provides a safety margin of 23 °C (73 °F). A six-inch extension
length (R = 10 °C (50 °F)) would offer a higher safety margin (35 °C (95
°F)) and would reduce temperature-effect errors but would probably
require extra transmitter support. Gauge the requirements for individual
applications along this scale. If a thermowell with lagging is used, the
extension length may be reduced by the length of the lagging.
The 3144P temperature transmitter has a highly reliable dual compartment
housing designed to resist moisture and corrosion. The sealed electronics
module is mounted in a compartment that is isolated from the terminal side
conduit entries. O-ring seals protect the interior when the covers are properly
installed. In humid environments, however, it is possible for moisture to
accumulate in conduit lines and drain into the housing.

NOTE
Each transmitter is marked with a tag indicating the approvals. Install the
transmitter in accordance with all applicable installation codes and approval
and installation drawings (see Appendix B: Product Certifications). Verify that
the operating atmosphere of the transmitter is consistent with the hazardous
locations certifications. Once a device labeled with multiple approval types is
installed, it should not be reinstalled using any of the other labeled approval
types. To ensure this, the approval label should be permanently marked to
distinguish the used from the unused approval type(s).

Mounting Take into account the need for access to the transmitter when choosing an
installation location and position.
Terminal Side of Electronics Housing
Mount the transmitter so the terminal side is accessible. Allow adequate
clearance for cover removal. Make wiring connections through the conduit
openings on the bottom of the housing.
Circuit Side of Electronics Housing
Mount the transmitter so the circuit side is accessible. Provide adequate
clearance for cover removal. Additional room is required for LCD installation.
The transmitter may be mounted directly to or remotely from the sensor.
Using optional mounting brackets, the transmitter may be mounted to a flat
surface or to a two-inch diameter pipe (see “Optional Transmitter Mounting
Brackets” on page A-8).
Software CompatibilityReplacement transmitters may contain revised software that is not fully
compatible with the existing software. The 375 Field Communicator and AMS
software containing device descriptors for the 3144 and 3244MV before
December 2001 do not fully support the new features of the 3144P. The
Device Descriptors (DD) are available with new communicators or can be
loaded into existing communicators at any Emerson Process Management
Service Center.

COMMISSIONINGThe 3144P must be configured for certain basic variables to operate. In many
cases, all of these variables are pre-configured at the factory. Configuration
may be required if the configuration variables need to be changed.
Commissioning consists of testing the transmitter and verifying transmitter
configuration data. Rosemount 3144P transmitters can be commissioned
either before or after installation. Commissioning the transmitter on the bench
before installation using a 375 Field Communicator or AMS ensures that all
transmitter components are in working order.
For more information on using the Field Communicator with the 3144P
transmitter, see “HART Commissioning” on page 3-1. For more information on
using the 3144 with Foundation fieldbus, see “Foundation Fieldbus
Configuration” on page 4-1.

Alarm Switch (HART)
The transmitter monitors itself during normal operation with an automatic
diagnostic routine. If the diagnostic routine detects a sensor failure or a failure
in the transmitter electronics, the transmitter goes into alarm (high or low,
depending on the position of the failure mode switch).
The analog alarm and saturation values that the transmitter uses depend on
whether it is configured to standard or NAMUR-compliant operation. These
values are also custom-configurable in both the factory and the field using the
HART Communications. The limits are
•21.0 ≤ I ≤ 23 for high alarm
•3.5 ≤ I ≤ 3.75 for low alarm

OUNDATION Fieldbus)
Simulate switch is used to replaces the channel value coming from the

MOUNTING If possible, mount the transmitter at a high point in the conduit run so moisture
from the conduits will not drain into the housing. The terminal compartment
could fill with water If the transmitter is mounted at a low point in the conduit
run. In some instances, the installation of a poured conduit seal, such as the
one pictured in Figure 2-3, is advisable. Remove the terminal compartment
cover periodically and inspect the transmitter for moisture and corrosion.

Power/Current Loop Connections
Use copper wire of a sufficient size to ensure that the voltage across the
transmitter power terminals does not go below 12.0 V dc.
1. Connect the current signal leads as shown in Figure 2-10.
2. Recheck the polarity and correctness of connections.
3. Turn the power ON.
For information about multichannel installations, refer to page 2-17.
NOTE
Do not connect the power/signal wiring to the test terminal. The voltage
present on the power/signal leads may burn out the reverse-polarity
protection diode that is built into the test terminal. If the test terminal’s reverse
polarity protection diode is burned out by the incorrect power/signal wiring, the
transmitter can still be operated by jumping the current from the test terminal
to the “–” terminal. See “Test Terminal” on page 4-3 for use of the terminal.

Sensor ConnectionsFigure 2-9 on page 2-11 (HART) and Figure 2-12 on page 2-13 (FOUNDATION
fieldbus) shows the correct sensor wiring connections to the transmitter
sensor terminals. To ensure an adequate sensor connection, anchor the
sensor lead wires beneath the flat washer on the terminal screw. Do not
remove the transmitter cover in explosive atmospheres if the circuit is live.
Both transmitter covers must be fully engaged to meet explosion-proof
requirements. Use extreme caution when making contact with the leads and
terminals.
RTD or Ohm Inputs
If the transmitter is mounted remotely from a 3- or 4-wire RTD, it will operate
within specifications, without recalibration, for lead wire resistances of up to
10 ohms per lead (equivalent to 1,000 feet of 20 AWG wire). In this case, the
leads between the RTD and transmitter should be shielded. If using only two
leads (or a compensation loop lead wire configuration), both RTD leads are in
series with the sensor element, so significant errors can occur if the lead
lengths exceed one foot of 20 AWG wire. For longer runs, attach a third or
fourth lead as described above. To eliminate 2-wire lead resistance error, the
2-wire offset command can be used. This allows the user to input the
measured lead wire resistance, resulting in the transmitter adjusting the
temperature to correct the error.
Thermocouple or Millivolt Inputs
For direct-mount applications, connect the thermocouple directly to the
transmitter. If mounting the transmitter remotely from the sensor, use
appropriate thermocouple extension wire. Make connections for millivolt
inputs with copper wire. Use shielding for long runs of wire.
NOTE
For HART transmitters, the use of two grounded thermocouples with a dual
option 3144P transmitter is not recommended. For applications in which the
use of two thermocouples is desired, connect either two ungrounded
thermocouples, one grounded and one ungrounded thermocouple, or one
dual element thermocouple.
POWER SUPPLYHART
An external power supply is required to operate the 3144P (not included). The
input voltage range of the transmitter is 12 to 42.4 V DC. This is the power
required across the transmitter power terminals. The power terminals are
rated to 42.4 V DC. With 250 ohms of resistance in the loop, the transmitter
will require a minimum of 18.1 V DC for communication.
The power supplied to the transmitter is determined by the total loop
resistance and should not drop below the lift-off voltage. The lift-off voltage is
the minimum supply voltage required for any given total loop resistance. See
Figure 2-13 to determine the required supply voltage. If the power drops
below the lift-off voltage while the transmitter is being configured, the
transmitter may output incorrect information.
2-14
The dc power supply should provide power with less than 2% ripple. The total
resistance load is the sum of the resistance of the signal leads and the load
resistance of any controller, indicator, or related piece of equipment in the
loop. Note that the resistance of intrinsic safety barriers, if used, must be
included.

Surges/TransientsThe transmitter will withstand electrical transients of the energy level usually
encountered in static discharges or induced switching. However, high-energy
transients, such as those induced in wiring from nearby lightning strikes, can
damage both the transmitter and the sensor.
To protect against high-energy transients, install the integral transient
protection board (option code T1). The integral transient protection board is
available as an ordered option or as an accessory. Refer to “Transient
Protection (Option Code T1)” on page A-16 for more information.
GroundingSensor Shielding
The currents in the leads induced by electromagnetic interference can be
reduced by shielding. Shielding carries the current to ground and away from
the leads and electronics. If the ends of the shields are adequately grounded,
little current will actually enter the transmitter.
If the ends of the shield are left ungrounded, a voltage is created between the
shield and the transmitter housing and also between the shield and earth at
the element end. The transmitter may not be able to compensate for this
voltage, causing it to lose communication and/or go into alarm. Instead of the
shield carrying the currents away from the transmitter, the currents will now
flow through the sensor leads into the transmitter circuitry where they will
interfere with the circuit operation.

Shielding Recommendations
The following are recommended practices are from API Standard 552
(Transmission Standard) section 20.7 and from field and laboratory testing. If
more than one recommendation is given for a sensor type, start with the first
technique shown or the technique that is recommended for the facility by its
installation drawings. If the technique does not eliminate the transmitter
alarms, try another technique. If all techniques unsuccessfully prevent
transmitter alarms due to high EMI, contact a Emerson Process Management
representative.
Ungrounded Thermocouple, mV, and RTD/Ohm Inputs
Option 1: recommended for ungrounded transmitter housing
1. Connect the signal wiring shield to the sensor wiring shield.
2. Ensure the two shields are tied together and electrically isolated from
the transmitter housing.
3. Ground the shield at the power supply end only.
4. Ensure the shield at the sensor is electrically isolated from the
surrounding fixtures that may be grounded.

Option 2: recommended for grounded transmitter housing
1. Connect the sensor wiring shield to the transmitter housing, provided
the transmitter housing is grounded (see "Transmitter Housing").
2. Ensure the shield at the sensor end is electrically isolated from
surrounding fixtures that may be grounded.
3. Ground the signal wiring shield at the power supply end.
