SITRANS TF - Transmitter, 2-wire system and SITRANS TF - Field indicator for 4 to 20 mA

■ Overview ■ Function
Configuration
The communication capability over the HART protocol V 5.9 of
the SITRANS TF with an integrated SITRANS TH300 permits pa-
2 rameterization using a PC or HART communicator (hand-held
communicator). The SIMATIC PDM makes it easy.
For the SITRANS TF with integrated programmable
SITRANS TH200, parameters are assigned with the PC. Avail-
able for this purpose are a special modem and the software tool
SIPROM T.
Mode of operation
Mode of operation of SITRANS TF as temperature transmitter
The sensor signal, whether resistance thermometer, thermocou-
ple element or  or mV signal, is amplified and linearized. Sen-
sor and output side are electrically isolated. An internal cold
junction is integrated for measurements with thermocouples.
The device outputs a temperature-linear direct current of 4 to 20

tion for online diagnostics, measured value transmission and
• 4 to 20 mA, universal configuration.
• Field indicator for 4 to 20 mA signals

meter without interrupting the output current loop.
■ Benefits Mode of operation of SITRANS TF as field indicator
• Universal use Any 4 to 20 mA signal can be applied to the generous terminal

The digital accuracy is the accuracy after the analog/digital con-

version including linearization and calculation of the measured

An additional error is generated in the output current 4 to 20 mA
as a result of the digital/analog conversion of 0.025% of the set
measuring span (digital-analog error).
The total error under reference conditions at the analog output is
the sum from the digital error and the digital-analog error (poss.
with the addition of reference junction errors in the case of ther-
mocouple measurements).

SITRANS TF - fieldbus transmitter
• Can be mounted directly on American-design sensors
■ Overview • Wide range of approvals for use in potentially explosive atmo-
spheres. "Intrinsically safe, non-sparking and flameproof" type
of protection, for Europe and USA

■ Application 2
The SITRANS TF can be used everywhere where temperatures
need to be measured under particularly harsh conditions. Which
is why users from all industries have opted for this field device.
The rugged enclosure protects the electronics. The stainless
steel model is almost completely resistant to sea water and other
aggressive substances. The inner workings offer high measur-
ing accuracy, universal input and a wide range of diagnostic op-
tions.

■ Function
Features
General
• Polarity-neutral bus connection
• 24-bit analog-digital converter for high resolution
Our field devices for heavy industrial use
• Galvanic isolation
• FOUNDATION fieldbus
• Version for use in hazardous areas
• PROFIBUS PA
• Special characteristic
The SITRANS TF temperature transmitter works where others
can't cope. • Sensor redundance
Transmitter with PROFIBUS PA communication
■ Benefits • Function blocks: 2 x analog
• For universal use as a transmitter for resistance thermometers,
thermocouple elements,  or mV signals Transmitter with FOUNDATION fieldbus communication
• Rugged two-chamber enclosure in die-cast aluminum or • Function blocks: 2 x analog and 1 x PID
stainless steel • Functionality: Basic or LAS
• IP66/67/68 degree of protection
Mode of operation
• Can be mounted elsewhere if the measuring point
- is difficult to access The following function diagram explains the mode of operation
- has high temperatures of the transmitter.
- experiences vibrations due to the process cell The only difference between the two versions of the SITRANS TF
- is to avoid long neck pipes and thermowells (7NG3137-... and 7NG3138-...) is the type of field bus protocol
used (PROFIBUS PA or FOUNDATION fieldbus).
