VBA-2E-G11-I/U/PT100-* Product Description Note! Switching Off the Second Channel Figure 4.4 Input PT2 bridge Two bridges are plugged in at the PT100 input PT2 by default; these bridges are designed to switch off channel 2. Remove the bridges to use channels 1 and 2. The bridges must be plugged in and disconnected only when the module is de-energized! Automatic Detection of the Sensor Type The VBA-2E-G11-I/U/PT100-* analog input module automatically detects which sensor type is...
VBA-2E-G11-I/U/PT100-* Product Description Pt100 temperature sensor Pt100 temperature sensors are platinum resistance thermometers complying with standard IEC 751 / DIN EN 60751. In this standard, various values of the temperature sensor are defined. The nominal resistance of the Pt100 is 100 , measured at 0 °C. Furthermore, as well as other values, the mean temperature coefficient ...
0.4 Nm. Connecting the AS-Interface VBA-2E-G11-I/U/PT100-F The VBA-2E-G11-I/U/PT100-F is connected with the AS-Interface network via the yellow flat cable. The external auxiliary power source U is connected to the module via the black flat cable where required.

VBA-2E-G11-I/U/PT100-* Installation 3. If the module is to be powered via an external auxiliary power source U , place the black flat cable in the channel labeled AUX. Set the INT/EXT switch to EXT. If the module is to be powered solely by the AS-Interface, place the flat cable seal (VAZ-FK- S-BK-SEAL) in the channel labeled AUX.
VBA-2E-G11-I/U/PT100-* Installation Connecting the Sensors Inputs: Connection examples: Current input I1/I2 2-wire 3-wire 4-wire 24 V Sig+ Sig- 3-wire 4-wire Voltage input U1/U2 24 V Sig+ Sig- Pt100 input PT1/PT2 Pt100 Pt100 2-wire 4-wire ϑ ϑ Figure 5.2 2-wire, 3-wire, and 4-wire sensors can be connected to the VBA-2E-G11-I/U/PT100-* module. Suitable for various connection scenarios see Figure 5.2 on page 13.
To operate the VBA-2E-G11-I/U/PT100-* in an AS-Interface network, you must assign a suitable address to the AS-Interface slave. The AS-Interface VBP-HH1-V3.0 handheld device by Pepperl+Fuchs or an AS-Interface master can be used to assign addresses. The VBA-2E-G11-I/U/PT100-* module is a standard slave as defined by specification 2.1.

VBA-2E-G11-I/U/PT100-* Commissioning Parameter P2: Peripheral Fault Default value P2=1, active Parameter P2 is used to switch notification of a peripheral fault in the event of a measuring overrange on or off (see chapter 9). If notifications are activated, the AS-i/FAULT LED flashes in the event of a peripheral fault, and a notification is sent to the master.
■ EXT) If none of these potential solutions correct the peripheral fault, please contact Pepperl+Fuchs. Cause and elimination of a channel fault If channel 2 is not transferred and the LED at the connection of the relevant input of channel 2 is not illuminated, channel 2 is not activated.
