TDA
5. Operating Principle
The KOBOLD Model TDA temperature sensor is used for economical measuring
and monitoring of temperature. It can be used for any application in which
temperatures must be monitored with great accuracy.
The sensor element is a semiconductor that outputs a digital signal to the
electronic analyser in 0,5°C steps. The measured values are shown on a 3-place
LED display. The analogue output can be adjusted as required with the
measuring range.
6. Mechanical Connection
Before installation:
Make sure the maximum operating pressure and maximum service
temperature for this instrument are not exceeded.
Installation:
This device is installed in a matching sleeve. Use sealing tape (i.e. Teflon tape)
or a flat gasket to seal the threaded connections.
The mounting position should be selected so that the sensor tip is always
immersed in the liquid being monitored, thus ensuring optimal heat exchange
between the liquid and the temperature sensor.
Note that deposits that build up on the senor tip or dirty liquids can have an
insulating effect and cause invalid measurements.
Whenever possible, after the mechanical installation is complete, the joint at
the threaded connector and the supply piping should be checked to ensure
that it is tight and does not leak.

7. Electrical Connection
Caution! Be sure that the supply voltage of your system is the same
as that specified on the device nameplate.
Make sure that the electrical supply lines are de-energized.
Make the connection using a PVC cable or the M 12x1 connector socket, as
shown in the accompanying diagram.
Appropriate connectors with different cable lengths are optionally available.
Important! The instrument electronics may be damaged if the
connectors are assigned incorrectly.
Caution! Please note that when used in high temperature
applications, the device housing and the operating controls can
become very hot.
Connect the temperature sensor as shown in the previous wiring diagram and
then connect it to a power source of the specified voltage.

11. Main Menu Items
11.1. Current output
The current output is selected as follows:
"S-C" Start current indicated value < > 0(4) mA
"E-C" End current indicated value < > 20 mA
"SCS" Start current selection (0-20 mA or 4-20 mA).
The indicated value at which 0(4) mA flows is entered in menu item “S-C”. The
indicated value at which 20 mA flows is entered in menu item “E-C”.
11.2. Switching point
The switching point is entered in the menu item "SPo". A setting value between
-199 and 999 can be selected. This value can also include a decimal point. The
decimal point can be set at two points (e.g. 10.0 or 1.00). If the measuring value
is the set switch point, the temperature switch is activated and is signalised by a
lighted LED.
If the hysteresis is zero and the window point is inactive, the temperature switch
will be reacted if the temperature is below the switch point.
11.3. Hysteresis
After setting the switching point, the hysteresis can be entered as a negative
value in the "HYS" menu. The standard hysteresis value is zero. In operation
condition this can lead to ambiguous switching behaviour if the reading fluctuates
around the switching point or window point. This can be prevented by increasing
the hysteresis. The hysteresis relates to the switching point and the window point
(switching point minus hysteresis; window point plus hysteresis).
Example: Switching point 100 °C; Hysteresis: -2.5 °C
The temperature switch switches when 100 °C is exceeded and
switches back when the reading drops below 97.5 °C.
11.4. Window point (duo-point)
Along with the switching point, the "duo" (duo-point) has to be defined, known as
the window point. This must be higher than the switching point. By using the
window point and the switching point it is possible to monitor the measurement
value in a certain range. The switching point limits the measurement range to
smaller values and the window point to larger values.
If the window point (duo-point) is less than or equal to the switching
point, an error report (Er4) will be indicated on the display. The
value is deleted and its function is invalid (in the case that the
window point and switching point out of adjustment).
page 12 TDA K01/0416
TDA
The value is set in the same way as the switching point.
The window point is needed for process, monitoring of a certain temperature
range.
Example:Switching point: 50 °C; window point: 70 °C; hysteresis: -2 °C
The temperature contact switches when 50 °C is exceeded.
If the temperature remains between 48 °C (50-2) and 72 °C (70+2), the contact
will remain in active switching condition (LED on). If it exceeds 72 °C or drops
below 48 °C , the contact will de-energise.
.
11.5. Switching behaviour
The following diagram clarifies the switching behaviour of the temperature switch.
The contact closes (contact type: no) when it drops below the switching point or
the window point. It only opens again if the window point plus hysteresis is
exceeded or if it drops below the switching point minus hysteresis. An LED
indicates the switching condition of the switching point.

11.6. Transient response
Using the menu items “dSE” and “drE” it is possible to set the delay set and the
delay reset.
The delay set causes delayed switching of the output if the switching threshold is
exceeded.
The delay reset causes a delayed resetting of the output if it drops below the
switching threshold – hysteresis.
The setting range for both parameters is 0.0 ... 99.5 seconds. The step rate is 0.5
seconds.
With these two functions it is also possible to suppress temporary disturbances.
11.7. Contact type
The transistor switching output can be set in the "Con" menu. The switching
function changes from
no - NO
to
nc - N/C and back.
NO switch means: the transistor is switched through if the switching point is
exceeded.
N/C contact means: The output transistor is cut off when the switching point is
exceeded.
11.8. Change code
Change code "CCo" protects the device against unauthorised changing of the set
parameters. If the code set is different from 000, then the operator must enter the
set code before selecting the set-up mode.
