Endress+Hauser Redefines 4-20mA RTD Temperature Transmitters with iTEMP TMT31

October 26, 2022

Endress+Hauser’s iTEMP TMT31 RTD temperature transmitter for analog 4-20mA signals offers easy installation and commissioning. It can be ordered with screw or push-in terminals, and can be delivered pre-configured or parameterized on site from a laptop or tablet

The new iTEMP TMT31 temperature transmitter for analog 4-20mA signals is designed by Endress+Hauser to deliver great long-term stability, high accuracy and ease of use.

In order to minimize the effort involved in commissioning, device configuration and maintenance, this RTD head transmitter for Pt100/Pt1000 sensors can be ordered pre-configured or parameterized on site from a laptop or tablet using free operating software DeviceCare from Endress+Hauser. The USB configuration kits required for this, such as TXU10 or Commubox FXA291, are also available as accessories.

The iTEMP TMT31 also boasts further improvements in connection technology. It is available in two optimized versions. One comes with push-in terminal for tool-free, secure wiring in just a few seconds. The other, the classic screw terminal option, has been optimized to make wiring the connection easier than ever. With both variants, corrosion-free contacts ensure maximum reliability of measured value transmission.

The iTEMP TMT31 is approved for safe operation of sensor types Pt100 (IEC/GOST/JIS) and Pt1000 (IEC) in Class I, Division 2, Groups A, B, C, D hazardous areas (non-sparking). Optionally, the sensor characteristics of the connected RTD can be adjusted to the head transmitter by means of a transmitter-sensor adjustment using the Callendar-Van Dusen equations (CvD), thus further increasing the temperature measurement accuracy of the entire system.

Three Myths About Implementing Mobile Robots

 

Autonomous mobile robots (AMRs) are self-navigating entities that dynamically move material through challenging environments, including narrow passages and peopled locations. Unlike traditional autonomously guided vehicles (AGVs), Omron AMRs require no facility modifications. This makes them a great option for businesses ready for a big transformation. Many companies are excited about the benefits of AMRs and are modifying their operational strategies to include this new technology. With different vendors and different integration strategies available, it’s important to consider which ones will make your investment a success.

Access Management for Your Plant and Machinery

With PILZ’s “Identification and Access Management” portfolio, they offer you a comprehensive range of products, solutions and software for the implementation of safety as well as security tasks. Below you’ll discover more about potential applications, from simple authentication to complex access permissions, and access management through to safe operating mode selection, maintenance safeguarding and safeguarding of data and networks. Experience safety and security in one system!

This solution ensures that a machine cannot resume operation while people are still in the danger zone. The maintenance safeguarding system “key-in-pocket” is designed for machines with danger zones, which are protected by a safety fence and which staff need to access – robot cells for example. In comparison with conventional lockout-tagout (LOTO) systems, maintenance safeguarding with the key-in-pocket solution is implemented via RFID keys with corresponding permissions and a safe list in the PILZ controllers. As a result, it provides a purely electronic restart protection and makes both mechanical interlocking devices and warning tags redundant.
