Function and system design

Measuring principle These resistance thermometers use a Pt100 temperature sensor according to IEC 60751. This

temperature sensor is a temperature-sensitive platinum resistor with a resistance of 100  at 0 °C (32 °F) and a temperature coefficient = 0.003851 °C
There are generally two different kinds of platinum resistance thermometers:
Wire wound (WW): Here, a double coil of fine, high-purity platinum wire is located in a ceramic support. This is then sealed top and bottom with a ceramic protective layer. Such resistance thermometers not only facilitate very reproducible measurements but also offer good long-term stability of the resistance/temperature characteristic within temperature ranges up to 600 °C (1112 °F). This type of sensor is relatively large in size and it is comparatively sensitive to vibrations.
Thin film platinum resistance thermometers (TF): A very thin, ultrapure platinum layer, approx. 1 μm thick, is vaporized in a vacuum on a ceramic substrate and then structured photolithographically. The platinum conductor paths formed in this way create the measuring resistance. Additional covering and passivation layers are applied and reliably protect the thin platinum layer from contamination and oxidation even at high temperatures.
The primary advantages of thin-film temperature sensors over wire wound versions are their smaller sizes and better vibration resistance. A relatively low principle-based deviation of the resistance/ temperature characteristic from the standard characteristic of IEC 60751 can frequently be observed among TF sensors at high temperatures. As a result, the tight limit values of tolerance category A as per IEC 60751 can only be observed with TF sensors at temperatures up to approx. 300 °C (572 °F). For this reason, thin-film sensors are generally only used for temperature measurements in ranges below 400 °C (932 °F).

Example of an application
A Thermometer with fitted head transmitter B RIA16 field display unit
– The display unit records the analog measuring signal from the head transmitter and shows this on the
display. The LC display shows the current measured value in digital form and as a bar graph indicating a limit value violation. The display unit is looped into the 4 to 20 mA circuit and gets the required energy from there. More information on this can be found in the Technical Information (see "Documentation").
C Active barrier RN221N
– The RN221N active barrier (24 V DC, 30 mA) has an galvanically isolated output for supplying voltage to
loop powered transmitters. The universal power supply works with an input supply voltage of 20 to 250 V DC/AC, 50/60 Hz, which means that it can be used in all international power grids. More information on this can be found in the Technical Information (see "Documentation").

The Omnigrad M TR10 RTD assemblies are modular. The terminal head serves as a connection module for the protection armature in the process as well as for the mechanical and electrical connection of the measuring insert. The actual RTD sensor element is fitted in and mechanically protected within the insert. The insert can be exchanged and calibrated even during the process. Either ceramic terminal blocks or transmitters can be fitted to the internal base washer. Where required, threads or compression fittings can be fixed onto the protection armature.

Process pressure

The pressure values to which the actual thermowell can be subjected at the various temperatures and maximum permitted flow velocity are illustrated by the figure below. Occasionally, the pressure loading capacity of the process connection can be considerably lower. The maximum allowable process pressure for a specific thermometer is derived from the lower pressure value of the thermowell and process connection.

Permitted flow velocity depending on the immersion length

The highest flow velocity tolerated by the thermometer diminishes with increasing immersion length exposed to the stream of the fluid. In addition it is dependent on the diameter of the thermometer tip, on the kind of measuring medium, on the process temperature and on the process pressure. The following figures exemplify the maximum permitted flow velocities in water and superheated steam at a process pressure of 5 MPa (50 bar).

Response time for the sensor assembly without transmitter.

Insulation resistance Insulation resistance 100  at ambient temperature.

Insulation resistance between each terminal and the sheath is measured with a voltage of 100 V DC.

Self heating RTD elements are passive resistances that are measured using an external current. This measurement

current causes a self heating in the RTD element itself which in turn creates an additional measurement error. In addition to the measurement current the size of the measurement error is also affected by the temperature conductivity and flow velocity of the process. This self heating error is negligible when an Endress+Hauser iTEMP
®
temperature transmitter (very small measurement
current) is connected.

Calibration specifications Endress+Hauser provides comparison temperature calibration from -80 to +600 °C (-110 °F to 1112

°F) based on the International Temperature Scale (ITS90). Calibrations are traceable to national and international standards. The calibration report is referenced to the serial number of the thermometer. Only the measurement insert is calibrated.
