The complete software configurability for input signal types, range & diagnostics without jumper or DIP switch settings and the incorporation of the industry standard open fieldbus system PROFIBUS-DP facilitates quick set-up & integration with the main control system.

The transmitter is housed in a ABS Plastic enclosure with integrated 2.5 mm sq. terminal blocks for direct field cable termination. The transmitter can be mounted on a 35 mm standard DIN rail . A direct field mountable design in a die cast Aluminium enclosure is under development. This shall be suitable for mounting on a MS / SS pipe of suitable diameter.

The transmitter provides enormous cost savings for those users wishing to migrate to a Fieldbus system from the traditional concept of direct field cabling of temperature sensors. Direct cost savings accrue from reduced lengths of Thermocouple compensation cables as large distances can be covered with the Profibus-DP fieldbus system. The complete software configurability of the device facilitates quick system set-up & integration with the main control system resulting in reducing the system commissioning time.
