Universal Non-Isolated 2-Wire Transmitters
Thermal Head Mounted
Series TH-11U

 
 User selectable for all thermocouple
 types, mV, and Pt-100 RTD.

The Mescon TH-11U is a low cost, non-isolated
temperature transmitter designed to fit in a standard thermal head. A new design features a unique circuitry that enables the use of a single transmitter for the measurements of either Pt-100 RTD, Thermocouple input or mV. When set to Thermocouple mode, the TH-11U accepts all known Thermocouple types. The advantages
of using the TH-11U transmitter are:
 

Non-Isolated 2-Wire Transmitters

 
 The TH-11U is constructed of an upper and
 lower section. The lower section contains the
 signal conditioning electronics, while the upper
 half contains the "personality" components that
 define the input sensor type and the
 measurement range. The two halves snap into
 each other for a perfect fit, yet enable easy
 disassembly for the purpose of input and range
 changes.

Output Span: 4-20mA, limiting @ <28mA
Input: RTD - Pt-100, 2 or 3 wire connection 20°C minimum, 500°C maximum.
TC - all known types. 10mV min. span.

Input Span:

(36°F min. 900°F max.)

Burnout Detection:

Upscale - standard.

Supply Voltage:

8-38 VDC polarity protected.

Maximum Load:

Rmax = (Vsupply - 8V)/20mA

Ambient Temp.: -20°C to +70°C
Humidity: 0 - 95% RH, Non-condensing
Linearity: RTD: better than ±0.05% of span
referred to sensor temperature.
TC/mV: better than ±0.03% of span
referred to mV input level.
Stability:
(for both zero and span.)
Pt-100 (100°C span)0.03% of span/°C
TC/mV (25mV input): 0.04% of span/ °C
CJ Compensation: For TC - 0.05°C/°C of ambient temp

All specifications are subject to change
without notice.


 Calibration and adjustments:
 It is assumed that the unit undergoing calibration
 has been properly ranged at the factory or the
 workshop.
 1. Pt-100 RTD: Connect the Pt-100 sensor simulator
 to the TH11 input terminals according to the wiring
 diagram. Turn the power on OR
 T/C: Connect the Thermocouple sensor simulator
 to the TH-11 input terminals according to the wiring
 diagram. Turn the power on. For optimum
 performance allow 15 minutes for temperature
 gradients to equalize.
 2. Set the input to and adjust the ZERO pot until
 the current indicator reads 4.00 mA.
 3. Set the input to and adjust the SPAN pot until the
 current indicator reads 20.00 mA.
 4. Repeat steps 2 and 3 until no further adjustment
 is needed.

 Note: If the unit cannot be calibrated to the
 desired range, it should be returned to the
 workshop for proper ranging.
