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 Ω at 0 °C (32 °F) and a temperature coefficient α = 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 mounted in an existing onsite thermowell 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").

34Terminal head
Thermowell connection: Threaded connection or compression fitting on extension neck
The resistance thermometers from the Omnigrad S TR88 series have a modular design. The terminal head is used as a connection module for the mechanical and electrical connection of the insert. The actual sensor element of the resistance thermometer sits in the insert and is mechanically protected. If installed in a thermowell, the insert can be replaced and calibrated directly in the process. Either ceramic connection sockets or transmitters can be mounted on the internal connection socket. The TR88 is designed for installation in an existing onsite thermowell. Different threaded connections are available on the bottom of the extension neck for installation in the thermowell. Insofar as the thermowell is suited to this purpose, the thermometer may also be mounted using a suitable compression fitting on the extension neck. This means that thermometers with a fixed insertion length can be used variably, even in thermowells of varying length, and can be installed in such a way that an optimum thermal contact is guaranteed between the tip of the insert and the bottom of the thermowell.

Process pressure

The maximum process pressure depends on the thermowell into which the thermometer is screwed. For an overview of the Endress+Hauser thermowells which may be used, see ä 17.

Permitted flow rate as a function of immersion length

The maximum permitted flow rate to which the thermometer can be subjected, reduces the greater the immersion depth of the thermowell in the flowing medium. In addition, it is dependent on the diameter of the tip of the thermowell, the medium type, process temperature and process pressure. For an overview of the Endress+Hauser thermowells which may be used, see ä 17.

Insulation resistance Insulation resistance ≥100 MΩ 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
®
temperature transmitter (very small measurement current) is connected.
