1.3Considerations
1.3.1General
Electrical temperature sensors such as RTDs and thermocouples produce low-level signals
proportional to the sensed temperature. The Rosemount 148 converts the low-level sensor
signal to a standard 4–20 mA DC signal that is relatively insensitive to lead length and electrical
noise. This current signal is transmitted to the control room via two wires.
Section 1: Introduction
April 2014
1.3.2Mechanical
Location
Take into account the need for access to the transmitter when choosing an installation location.
Special mounting
Special hardware is available for mounting a Rosemount 148 head mount transmitter to a DIN
rail.
1.3.3Electrical
Proper electrical installation is necessary to prevent errors due to sensor lead resistance and
electrical noise. For best results, shielded cable should be used in electrically noisy
environments.
Make wiring connections through the cable entry in the side of the connection head. Be sure to
provide adequate clearance for cover removal.
1.3.4Environmental
The transmitter electronics module is permanently sealed within the housing, resisting
moisture and corrosive damage. Verify that the operating atmosphere of the transmitter is
consistent with the appropriate hazardous locations certifications.

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

length.

Example
The transmitter specification limit is 85 °C. If the ambient temperature is 55 °C and the process
temperature to be measured is 800 °C, the maximum permissible connection head temperature
rise is the transmitter specification limit minus the ambient temperature (moves 85 °C to 55 °C),
or 30 °C.
In this case, an extension of 100 mm meets this requirement, but 125 mm provides a margin of
8 °C, thereby reducing any temperature effects in the transmitter.

2.4.1Failure mode
As part of normal operation, each transmitter continuously monitors its own performance. This
automatic diagnostics routine is a timed series of checks repeated continuously. If diagnostics
detect an input sensor failure or a failure in the transmitter electronics, the transmitter drives its
output to low or high alarm depending on the failure mode configuration. If the sensor (process)
temperature value is out of range, the transmitter outputs default saturation values. Low end
saturation levels are either 3.90 or 3.80 mA and the high end saturation level is 20.5 mA.
Corresponding NAMUR compliant operation levels are 3.80 and 20.5 mA. These values are also
custom configurable by the factory or using the Rosemount 148 PC Programmer interface. See
“
Section 3: Configuration” on page 19 for instructions on how to change the alarm and saturation
levels with the 148 PC Programmer.
Note
Microprocessor failures cause high alarm regardless of alarm direction (high or low) choice.
The values to which the transmitter drives its output in failure mode depend on whether it is
configured to standard, NAMUR-compliant, or custom operations. See (
NAMUR-compliant operation parameters.
2.5Wiring
All power to the transmitter is supplied over the signal wiring. Use ordinary copper wire of
sufficient size to ensure that the voltage across the transmitter power terminals does not drop
below 12.0 V DC. Verify that the operating atmosphere of the transmitter is consistent with the
appropriate hazardous locations certifications. Use extreme caution when making contact with
the leads and terminals.
★) for standard and
Installation
If the sensor is installed in a high-voltage environment and a fault condition or installation error
occurs, the sensor leads and transmitter terminals could carry lethal voltages. Use extreme
caution when making contact with the leads and terminals.

configurations by leaving the unneeded leads disconnected and insulated with electrical tape.
April 2014
RTD or ohm inputs
The Rosemount 148 will accept a variety of RTD configurations, including 2-wire, 3-wire, and
4-wire designs. If the transmitter is mounted remotely from a 3-wire or 4-wire RTD, it will
operate within specifications, without recalibration, for lead wire resistances of up to 60 ohms
per lead (equivalent to 6,000 feet of 20 AWG wire). In this case, the leads between the RTD and
transmitter should be shielded. If using only two leads, both RTD leads are in series with the
sensor element, so significant errors can occur if the lead lengths exceed three feet of 20 AWG
wire (approximately 0.05 °C/ft). For longer runs, attach a third of fourth lead as described above.
Sensor lead wire resistance effect - RTD input
When using a 4-wire RTD, the effect of lead resistance is eliminated and has no impact on
accuracy. However, a 3-wire sensor will not fully cancel lead resistance error because it cannot
compensate for imbalances in resistance between the lead wires. Using the same type of wire
on all three lead wires will make a 3-wire RTD installation as accurate as possible. A 2-wire sensor
will produce the largest error because it directly adds the lead wire resistance to the sensor
resistance. For 2- and 3-wire RTDs, an additional lead wire resistance error is induced with
ambient temperature variations. The table and the examples shown below help quantify these
errors.

2.6Power supply
The power supplied to the transmitter should not drop below the transmitter lift-off voltage of
12 V DC.
2.6.1Surges/transients
The transmitter will withstand electrical transients of the energy level encountered in static
discharges or induced switching transients. However, high-energy transients, such as those
induced in wiring from nearby lightening strikes, welding, heavy electrical equipment, or
switching gears, can damage both the transmitter and the sensor. To protect against
high-energy transients, install the transmitter into a suitable connection head with the
Rosemount 470 Transient Protector. Refer to the Rosemount 470 Transient Protector Product
Data Sheet (Document Number 00813-0100-4191) for further information.
2.6.2Ground the transmitter
The transmitter will operate with the current signal loop either floating or grounded. However,
the extra noise in floating systems affects many types of readout devices. If the signal appears
noisy or erratic, grounding the current signal loop at a single point may solve the problem. The
best place to ground the loop is at the negative terminal of the power supply. Do not ground the
current signal loop at more than one point.
Section 2: Installation
April 2014
The transmitter is electrically isolated at 500 V AC rms (707 V DC) at 50/60 Hz, so the input
circuit may also be grounded at any single point. When using a grounded thermocouple, the
grounded junction serves as this point.
Note
Do not ground the signal wire at both ends.
Ungrounded thermocouple, and RTD/ohm inputs
Each process installation has different requirements for grounding. Use the grounding options
recommended by the facility for the specific sensor type, or begin with grounding Option 1 (the
most common).
Option 1:
1.Connect sensor wiring shield to the transmitter housing (only if the housing is
grounded).
2.Ensure the sensor shield is electrically isolated from surrounding fixtures that may be
grounded.
3.Ground signal wiring shield at the power supply end.

the system. The default damping value is 5.0 seconds and can be reset to any value between 0
and 32 seconds.
The value chosen for damping affects the response time of the transmitter. When set to zero (or
disabled), the damping function is off and the transmitter output reacts to changes in input as
quickly as the intermittent sensor algorithm allows (refer to “*”) for a description of the
intermittent sensor algorithm. Increasing the damping value increases the transmitter response
time.
With damping enabled, the transmitter outputs values according to the following relationship.
At time t
Damping Value =
Reference Manual
00809-0100-4148, Rev CA
At the time which the damping time constant is set, the transmitter output is at 63% of the
input changes and it continues to approach the input according to the damping equation above.
After one damping time constant following a sensor input step change, the transmitter output
will be 63.2% of that change. The output will continue to approach the input according to the
damping equation above.
For example, as illustrated in *, if the temperature undergoes a step change from 100 ° to 100 °,
and the damping is set to 5.0 seconds, the transmitter calculates and reports a new reading
using the damping equation. At 5.0 seconds, the transmitter outputs 106.3 °, or 63.2% of the
input change, and the output continues to approach the input curve according to the above
equation.
