Omnigrad S -TR65

RTD thermometer EEx-d or EEx-ia certified, no replaceable insert, process connection: threaded welded and threaded compression fitting. PCP (4...20 mA), HART® or PROFIBUS-PA® electronics

Range of uses

The Omnigrad S TR65 is an RTD industrial thermometer, developed for use in the fine chemicals and petrolchemical industry but also suitable for generic industrial applications. In compliance to EN 50014/18/20 (ATEX certification) it is therefore particularly suitable also for hazardous areas. When required, it’s also available with a transmitter (PCP, HART® or PROFIBUS-PA®) into the housing. The TR65 is available in different configurations, can also be configured with specific dimensions and characteristics depending on process requirements. The installation on the plants normally needed a special process connection: a compression fitting.

Function and system design

Measuring principle The RTD (Resistance Temperature Detector), is a sensor where the electrical resistance varies with the tem

perature. The material of the RTD is Platinum (Pt) with a value of the resistance (R), referred to a nominal value at the temperature of 0°C = 100,00 Ω (in compliance to rule IEC 60751; it is called Pt100). The very impor­tant is to define the RTD; it is defined with a standard "α" value measured between 0°C and 100°C.
This value is: α = 3.85 x 10 The temperature is measured indirectly by reading the voltage drop across the sensing resistor in the presence of a constant current flowing through it using Ohm’s. The measuring current should be as small as possible to minimise possible sensor selfheating; normally this current is around 1mA, no higher. The resistance value measured for each degree is about = 0,391 Ohm/K; over 0°C it is opposite proportional at the temperature. The standard RTD connection at the plant instrument can be to 2, 3 or 4 wires to simple or double RTD element.

sor is based on the following standards:
•EN 50014/18 (housing)
•Neck (Fixed or sliding process connection)
•IEC 60751 (insert and sensing element).
The housing is in painted aluminium alloy; it is suitable to contain a transmitter and/or the ceramic block of the insert; the “Ingress Protec­tion” is from IP66 to IP68. The process connections of the TR65 are: com­pression fitting (sliding or spring loaded), fixed process connection, threaded (M, GAS or NPT, see the section "System components"). The inserts diameter is 3 - 4,5 - 6 - 8 mm and are composed by MgO cable (SS 316L sheath) with a sensing element (Pt100 ohm/0°C) positioned at the MgO cable tip. The standard elettrical connection is to 2, 3 or 4 wires for sensing ele­ment (Pt100).
