3 Functions and features
With temperature sensors connected the unit monitors the system temperature in
machinery and plant
Connectable temperature sensors:
Temperature sensors TS or TT
•
Resistance thermometer RTD (Pt 100 or Pt 1000)
•
The unit automatically detects the connected sensor type and configures itself ac-
cordingly The electrical measuring method (3-wire or 4-wire sensor) is determined
via the menu setting (→ 9.5.1).
4 Function
4.1 Communication, parameter setting and evaluation
The unit displays the current system temperature
•
It generates 2 output signals according to the parameter setting
•
OUT1
Switching signal for system temperature limit value
OUT2
Switching signal for system temperature limit value
It moreover provides the process data via IO-Link
•
The unit is laid out for fully bidirectional communication So, the following op-
•
tions are possible:
Remote display: Reading and displaying the current system temperature
-
Remote parameter setting: Reading and changing current parameter settings
-
with the FDT service program ifm Container or via IO-Link
Using the FDT service program ifm Container, the current parameter settings
-
can be stored and transferred to other units of the same type
