Description
As discussed previously, the ABB TTH300 is a Head-Mount Temperature Transmitter manufactured by ABB for industrial applications requiring precise temperature measurement [1, 2, 3].
Here’s a summary of its key functionalities and features:
-
Function:
- Measures temperature using a connected resistance thermometer (RTD) sensor, typically Pt100 type [1, 2, 3].
- Converts the RTD sensor’s resistance signal into a standard 4-20 mA DC current output proportional to the measured temperature [1, 2, 3].
- Provides a compact and easy-to-mount solution for various industrial environments.
-
Features:
- Wide Temperature Range: Supports a wide temperature range for different applications (exact range depends on the model variant) [1, 2, 3]. Refer to the user manual for details.
- Two-Wire Technology: Uses a single cable for both power supply and signal transmission, simplifying wiring [1, 2, 3].
- Rugged Construction: Built with durable materials to withstand harsh industrial environments [1, 2, 3].
- Configuration (uncertain): Might offer configuration options for temperature range, output scaling, and other parameters (refer to user manual) [1, 2, 3].
- HART Communication (possible): Some models might support HART protocol for remote communication and diagnostics (user manual confirmation needed) [1, 2, 3].
-
Applications:
-
- Widespread use in industrial process control and monitoring across various sectors:
- Chemical processing plants
- Power generation and distribution
- Oil & Gas refineries
- Food & Beverage production
- Manufacturing facilities [1, 2, 3]
Finding More Information:
For detailed specifications, configuration instructions, and safety information, consulting the user manual or datasheet is crucial. Here are some ways to learn more about the ABB TTH300:
- ABB Website: Search for “ABB TTH300” on the ABB website for product information, downloads, and manuals [1].
- User Manuals and Datasheets: Look for “ABB TTH300 user manual” or “ABB TTH300 datasheet” online. While you might find PDFs on automation parts supplier websites or forums, the information could be outdated [2, 3].
- ABB Customer Support: Contact ABB customer support for the Measurement Products business unit. They can provide the most up-to-date information on the TTH300, including:
- User manuals and datasheets
- Compatibility details for specific RTD sensor models
- Calibration and maintenance procedures
Additional Considerations:
- Sensor Selection: The TTH300 works with compatible RTD temperature sensors. Choose a sensor that meets your application’s temperature range and accuracy requirements.
- System Integration: The TTH300 integrates with industrial automation systems for process control. The 4-20 mA output signal needs to be connected to a compatible data acquisition system or controller.
- Safety Considerations: Accurate temperature measurement is vital for safety in process control applications. Follow ABB’s recommendations for installation, operation, and maintenance of the TTH300.
If you’re working with an ABB TTH300 temperature transmitter, consulting the user manual or contacting ABB support is highly recommended. They can provide the most accurate details about configuration, sensor compatibility, and ensure safe and reliable operation within your industrial process control system.
