MTL MTL5000 Series, Инструкция по эксплуатации

Страница: 32 / 46

A switch located on top of the module enables or disables a safety drive
in the event of thermocouple burnout or cable breakage; a second
switch permits the selection of upscale or downscale drive as required.
6.28.1 Safety drive
Please note that the safety drive on the MTL5081 responds to line
breakage (an open circuit) or in the event of thermocouple burnout. It
does not provide detection of a short circuit. It can, however, be set
upscale or downscale. Selection is made by switches located on top of
the module (see figure 6.64)
* Note that the above statement Vout = Vin is subject to transfer accuracy
and drift specified in the MTL Intrinsic Safety catalogue.
6.28.2 Wiring connections
See figure 6.65 for wiring connections.
27 INM5000-6 Jul 2010
6.27.2 Testing
Default parameters for the MTL5074, unless custom configured by MTL,
are:
Input type 3-wire RTD
Linearisation enabled
Units °C
Cj compensation disabled
Damping value 0 sec
Smoothing value 0 sec
Output zero 0°C
Output span 250°C
Tag and description fields clear
Open circuit alarm high
Transmitter failure alarm low
Cj failure alarm low
Line frequency 50Hz
Note: the configuration of MTL5074 cannot be changed without the aid
of a PCS/PCL45 configurator (see INM073A Connection and
Configuration Manual for full details). These devices also enable more
comprehensive testing of the converters.
Make the safe- and hazardous-area connections shown in figure 6.62.
Note that the range of the dc ammeter 'A' must be suitable for 4 to
20mA currents and the variable resistor 'R' should have a range of 0-
200
Ω
and, ideally, should be a decade resistance box. Switch on the
power supply and check that the green power LED comes on (if it flashes,
the unit is incorrectly configured or the test wiring setup is faulty). Check
that the loop output current at 'A' varies as the variable resistance at 'R'
is altered and check the table below for particular settings (194
Ω
@250°C and 100
Ω
@0°C for a PT100 sensor).
6.28 MTL5081 millivolt isolator
The MTL5081 takes a low level dc signal from a voltage source in a
hazardous area, isolates it and passes it to a receiving instrument
located in the safe area. Although used with thermocouples, this unit
does not have cold junction compensation facility. It is intended for use
with thermocouples utilising external cold junction compensation. When
using with thermocouples, in order to minim ise the temperature gradient
between the safe- and hazardous-area terminals, it is recommended that
the units are mounted on vertical DIN rail (see figure 6.63).
