Products Solutions Services TI01043K/09/EN/05.15 71300884 Technical Information RIA15 Loop-powered 4 to 20 mA process display unit with optional HART® communication Compact process display unit with very low voltage drop for universal use to display 4 to 20 mA/HART® signals Application Your benefits •...
The device can also be operated with backlighting where necessary. In such cases pay attention to the higher voltage drop. When used in conjunction with the Micropilot FMR20 radar level sensor, the RIA15 unit can also be used to make the basic settings for the Micropilot FMR20. The RIA15 must be ordered with the relevant option for FMR20 basic setting in this case.
RIA15 Measuring range 4 to 20 mA (scalable, reverse polarity protection) Max. input current 200 mA Power supply Terminal assignment NOTICE SELV/Class 2 device ‣ The device may only be powered by a power unit with an energy-limited circuit in accordance with IEC 61010-1: ' S ELV or Class 2 circuit' .

An additional current-limited current source is required to implement switchable backlighting, e.g. active barrier RN221N. This current source is used to supply the LED backlighting of up to 7 RIA15 process display units without causing an additional voltage drop in the measurement loop. The backlighting can be switched on and off using an external switch.
RIA15 Installation Mounting location Panel housing The device is designed for use in a panel. Required panel cutout 45x92 mm (1.77x3.62 in) Field housing The field housing version is designed for use in the field. The unit is mounted directly on a wall, or on a pipe with a diameter of up to 2 "...
For this, the RIA15 can either be ordered together with the FMR20 via the FMR20 product structure, or the RIA15 must be ordered separately with option 3 "4 to 20 mA current signal + HART + FMR20 basic setting" in feature 030 "Input".
