Digital communication for remote calibration and monitoring is also provided (HART Protocol). The digital technology used in the DT301 allows the choice of several types of transfer functions, an easy interface between the field and the control room and some characteristics that reduce the installation, operation and the maintenance costs considerably.

There are, however, ways of reducing the effects of temperature, humidity and vibration. The capacitive sensor of the DT301, that is located external to the process, is protected of external sources of heat by an enclosure with internal thermal insulation. Nevertheless, the transmitter should be installed in way to avoid to the maximum the direct exhibition to the ray’s run.
Choose a place for installation that facilitates the access for the measuring point and that be free from mechanical shocks. Try to use a valve in the connection to the process before the DT301. This simplifies the calibration and maintenance of the equipment.

Bell 202 Modem using Hart Protocol. Each transmitter is identified by a unique address from 1 to 15. The DT301 is factory set to address 0, which means a non multidrop operation mode, allowing the transmitter to communicative with the Hand-Held Terminal, superimposing the communication on the 4- 20 mA signal.
Required” could be applied for Explosion Proof Version. (CSA Certification). The standard plugs provided by Smar are certified according to the standards at FM, CSA and CEPEL. If the plug needs to be replaced, a certified plug must be used.
Section 2 OPERATION The pressure sensor used by the DT301 Smart Concentration/ Density Transmitter is a capacitive cell, the same type used by the LD301 Smart Pressure Transmitter. This sensor is connected to a probe to accomplish the measures through of the pressure differential reading. The figure 2.1 schematizes the sensor used by the DT301.
DT301 – Operation, Maintenance and Instructions Manual Functional Description - Hardware The transmitter blocks Diagram, as it shows the Figure 2.2, it describes the circuit used by the DT301 functionally. Probe The probe is the transmitter part that is directly in contact with the process.
The work range of the transmitter defines the values for the currents 4 and 20 MA. The control current of the DT301 transmitter obeys the specifications of the NAMUR NE-43 norm.
The indicator has the capacity to show the value, the engineering unit and the variable type, simultaneously with most of the state indications. See in the figure 2.4 a sample of a DT301 indication standard.
In the case of the DT301, which can be configured a transmitter; the HART addressing is used as follows: Transmitter Mode - The "0" address causes the DT301 to control its output current and addresses "1" through "15" place the DT301 in the multidrop mode with current control. NOTE In case of multidrop network configuration for classified areas, the entity parameters allowed for the area shall be strictly observed.

4-20 mA signal, up to 2 km away from the transmitter. Manufacturing Data and Identification The following information about the DT301 manufacturing and identification data is available: TAG - 8-character alphanumeric field for transmitter identification.
Concentration Trim This trim is made with the DT301 installed in the process fluid. Catch a sample of the process fluid and determine the density or concentration in laboratory. Enter the trim menu to adjust the lower concentration, informing the value read in laboratory or another standard.
0.2 seconds. MEASUREMENT This function of configuration menu of the Smar programmer makes it possible to select the type of transference function the transmitter is expected to perform. There are several functions related with the measurement of density and concentration, and there is a special function which makes it possible to check the 4 to 20 mA current generated by the transmitter.
The general equation to determine the solid percent is: %sol = a The table and the graph below indicate the application of the DT301 polynomial that relates Baume degree to solid percent, generating the polynomial: y = 0.004768x - 0.760813x...
This function is applied to a higher number of applications. It relates three measurements: density, temperature and concentration. As the digital display used in DT301 is of 4 ½ digits, the maximum indicated value would be 19999. When selecting the unit, be certified that in your application the value won't surpass 19999.
DT301 – Operation, Maintenance and Instructions Manual NOTE The output current will be increased to 4 mA as the DT301 address is altered to another value than "0".
