  • Page 9: Rtd Temperature Probe

    RTD temperature probe 3 RTD temperature probe Design An RTD temperature probe essentially comprises a temperature sensor, connection lines, and a protec- tion tube. The temperature sensor is connected to a connection line/connection wires, insulated, and in- serted into a protection tube (usually filled with a heat-conducting medium). The connection side can be designed as a line end that has been kept free, or designed with a terminal head, with a connector, etc.

  • Page 16: Circuit Types

    3 RTD temperature probe Circuit types 3.5.1 Two-wire circuit The two-wire circuit is the simplest circuit type for RTD temperature probes. Three and four-wire circuits are also used to enable more accurate measurements. With two-wire circuits, the line resistance influences the measurement result. This means that to obtain accurate measurement results, the line resistance must be deducted or needs to be corrected at the evaluation electronics;...

    Thermocouples 4 Thermocouples Design A thermocouple essentially comprises a pair of thermal wires, which can be insulated and are inserted into protection tubes. The thermal wires are connected to thermal or compensating cables. Their con- nection side can be designed as a line end that has been kept free, or designed with a terminal head, with a connector, etc.

  • Page 19: Operating Principle

    4 Thermocouples Thermocouples may be insulated or non-insulated/grounded. Insulated construction Non-insulated construction The non-insulated construction produces faster response times. However, no electrical insulation and no galvanic isolation between the thermocouple and the protection tube can be provided here. Take this into account when connecting the thermocouple, so as to prevent potential entrainments, etc.

  • Page 22: Lines

    Lines 5 Lines All lines used must be in perfect electrical order and must not exhibit any damage. Corrosion, humidity, or pollutants on the lines must be prevented and removed if required. Lines with glass fiber insulation or wire mesh may only be used in dry areas. In this case, the presence of moisture can cause shunts or the formation of additional galvanic elements.
  • Page 23 5 Lines An almost constant error is produced with two-wire circuits depending on the stranded wire cross section and the line length. This error can be corrected at the evaluation unit (by using zero point correction, for example). However, the resistance of the connection line also depends on the temperature. This addi- tional influence cannot be taken into account.
  • Page 24: Lines Of Thermocouples

    5 Lines Lines of thermocouples Thermal cables or compensating cables can be used for thermocouples. Thermal and compensating cables differ as follows: Thermal cables are made of the same material as the element itself. Compensating cables are made of special materials with identical thermoelectric features in restricted temperature ranges.

  • Page 28: Protection Tubes

    Protection tubes 6 Protection tubes Various parameters (such as temperature, pressure, and oscillations) place loads on thermometers and their protection fittings. The protection fittings must therefore be designed accordingly. The variables in this respect include the material, insertion length, and diameter. DIN 43772 contains an overview of various metal protection tubes for thermocouples and RTD tempera- ture probes.
  • Page 29: Transmitter

    Transmitter 7 Transmitter Transmitters convert the sensor signal into a standardized, temperature-linear current or voltage signal. The advantage of two-wire transmitters is that they amplify the signal, making it much less sensitive to interference. Several design types are available for positioning the transmitter as required. To make the signal less susceptible to interference, the section covered by the non-amplified signal should be kept as short as possible.
  • Page 30: Handling

    Handling 8 Handling Transport Avoid vibrations when transporting the thermometer. Also ensure that the thermometer is not exposed to humidity. When the goods are received, check whether the packaging and thermometer are free of transport dam- age and mechanical damage. If you discover damage, do not use the thermometer. The devices must be stored properly.
  • Page 31: Installation Location And Alignment

    8 Handling 8.2.1 Installation location and alignment To ensure ease of access in the installation location, sockets are often used to mount the thermometers. Please note the following for the mounting work: The larger the immersion depth into the measurement medium, the more accurate the measurement re- sult will be as heat conduction errors will be reduced.
  • Page 32: Screw-In Thermometer

    8 Handling Avoid twisted and/or tensioned lines. For this reason, always route connection lines correctly. Route con- nection lines separately from the lines of the power electronics. The area around the thermometer must also be kept clean because aggressive media in particular could chemically attack the thermometer, potentially damaging the construction.
  • Page 33: Welded-Stem Thermometer

    8 Handling 8.2.3 Welded-stem thermometer The quality of the welded joint plays a crucial role in determining the leak-tightness and strength of the construction. WARNING! Personal injury and damage to property due to a poor-quality welded joint! Poor-quality welded joints in combination with high pressure or overheating can cause leaks. If touched, these can cause burns or destroy the device.
  • Page 34: Special Installation Situations

    8 Handling 8.2.6 Special installation situations When measuring temperatures below the ambient temperature, it is important to prevent condensate for- mation in the area of the electrical connection. Mount the line inputs and sealing areas such that any condensate that is formed can drain away. When routing the connection line, likewise bear in mind the possibility of moisture forming (from conden- sation, rainfall, etc.).
  • Page 35: Electrical Connection

    The terminal assignment must be implemented according to the connection diagram. If there is no con- nection diagram for a thermometer (such as those with a connection line), the table in chapter 9.1 "Connection types", Page 39 shows the relevant terminal assignment. Customer-specific terminal assignments may differ from the JUMO standards. NOTICE! Incorrect measurement results! Incorrect polarity will cause major measurement deviations.
  • Page 36: Functional Test

    8 Handling Functional test Startup checklist Is the thermometer suitable for the ambient temperatures? Is the thermometer suitable for the maximum operating temperature? Is the thermometer suitable for the maximum operating pressure? Is the protection tube resistant to the environment (chemicals, particles, etc.)? Has the thermometer's IP protection type been selected correctly? Is the connection area in an area with a uniform, constant temperature, particularly for thermocou- ples?
  • Page 37: Maintenance

    8 Handling Maintenance To ensure the thermometers work reliably, their functionality must be checked at regular intervals. This check should look at the functionality of the measuring circuits and whether there is any damage to the protection tubes. Individual items from the functional check (chapter 8.3 "Functional test", Page 36) can be repeated if re- quired.
  • Page 38: Dismounting

    8 Handling Dismounting WARNING! Risk of electric shocks! There is a risk of serious injury or even death.  Before dismounting the device, switch off the voltage supply and release the electrical connections. Release process connections only when the device has been acclimatized and depressurized. Ad- just the temperature of the pipe/process in line with the ambient temperature.
