…1 Health & Safety
Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment
(WEEE)
WEEE EU Directive 2012/19/EU covers disposal and recycling
of electronic equipment at the end of life for reasons of
environmental protection.
For industrial installations, portable equipment is
included. This means that when the AquaMaster4
transmitter is used with a portable AquaProbe sensor,
it is included in directive’s scope and has the WEEE
symbol (left) on its data label. Therefore, at the end of
life, contact the supplier for specialist waste
recycling. It must not be disposed of as municipal
waste.
Permanent Industrial installations are not designated within
this directive for recycling. At the point of supply the intended
use is not always known, so the WEEE symbol is included on all
remote forms of the AquaMaster4 transmitter.
Product recycling and disposal (Europe only)
Electrical equipment marked with this symbol may
not be disposed of in European public disposal
systems after 12 August 2005. To conform to
European local and national regulations (EU Directive
2012/19/EU), European electrical equipment users
can now return old or end-of-life equipment to the
manufacturer for disposal at no charge to the user.
ABB is committed to ensuring that the risk of any
environmental damage or pollution caused by any of
its products is minimized as far as possible.
IMPORTANT (NOTE)
For return for recycling, please contact the equipment
manufacturer or supplier for instructions on how to
return end-of-life equipment for proper disposal.
Information on ROHS Directive 2011/65/EU
(RoHS II)
ABB, Industrial Automation, Measurement & Analytics, UK, fully
supports the objectives of the ROHS II directive. All in-scope
products placed on the market by IAMA UK on and following the
22nd of July 2017 and without any specific exemption, will be
compliant to the ROHS II directive, 2011/65/EU.
Product symbols
Symbols that may appear on this product are shown below:
Risk of electric shock.
This symbol, when noted on a product, indicates a
potential hazard which could cause serious personal
injury and/or death. The user should reference this
instruction manual for operation and/or safety
information.
Protective earth (ground) terminal.
Functional earth (ground) terminal.
Direct current supply only.
This symbol, when noted on a product enclosure or
barrier, indicates that a risk of electrical shock and/or
electrocution exists and indicates that only
individuals qualified to work with hazardous voltages
should open the enclosure or remove the barrier.
Recycle separately from general waste under the
WEEE directive.

AWT210 HART 2-WIRE TRANSMITTER | COM/AWT210/HART-EN REV. B 5
2 Overview
The AWT210 HART® transmitter provides either a 4 to 20mA
analog signal (conventional analog), a 4 to 20mA analog signal
with superimposed digital signal (HART point to point analog),
or a polled digital signal (HART multi-drop). Using HART
communications, many functions normally requiring the use of
the local user-interface can be accessed remotely using HART
communication devices.
Four variants of AWT210 are available for use with pH, ORP,
pIon, and conductivity sensors.
The device has four dynamic variables. The device does not
have any device variables.
The analogue output of this device corresponds to the primary
variable (pH, ORP, pIon, Ion concentration, conductivity, or
concentration), outputting 4 mA at the lower range value and
20 mA at the upper range value.
Supported Sensors:
• pH
• 2-electrode conductivity
• 4-electrode conductivity
• toroidal conductivity
The ABB AWT210 analyzer complies with HART Protocol
Revision 7.0.

4 Installation
This section provides installation instructions specific to the
AWT210 HART functionality.
WARNING – BODILY INJURY
• For general mechanical, electrical and hazardous
location installation requirements refer to the
AWT210 Operating Instructions (OI/AWT210-EN).
• The signal/power terminals accept wire sizes
0.14 mm² (26 AWG) to 1.5 mm²(14 AWG).
• Wiring should not be run in conduit or open trays
where power or heavy electrical equipment could
physically or electrically interfere with the signal
wiring. Twisted, shielded pairs should be used for
cabling to ensure best performance. Reverse
polarity protection, built into the transmitter,
protects it against accidental reversal of the
field wiring connections.

HART point-to-point analog signal and power wiring (loop current mode enabled)
Make connections to the HART communication module as
shown in Figure 2.
Do not connect secondary communication device directly
across the power supply.
Figure 2 Analog mode wiring diagram
The signal wiring supplies all power to the transmitter.
The power supply limits are 14.0 to 42.0 V DC
(14 to 30 V DC for agency certified installation).
The minimum supply voltage is determined by the loop
resistance (R) as follows:
• minimum supply = 14.0 (volt) + 0.022 (amps) x R (ohms)
Load resistance must include any meters external to the
AWT210 transmitter, the wiring and the system input.
IMPORTANT (NOTE)
The equation for minimum supply voltage is based on
a maximum output current of 20 mA. In some cases
such as fail high or process variable over range
condition, the output current limits to 21.5 mA. To
support these cases, use 0.0215 instead of 0.020.
A secondary communication device can be connected anywhere
there is access to the signal wires as long as it is not connected
directly across the power supply.
IMPORTANT (NOTE)
Only one secondary device can communicate on the
loop at any given time.

Multi-drop mode (digital) signal and power wiring (loop current mode enabled)
Refer to Figure 3 for a typical wiring configuration for multi-
drop installations. In the multi-drop mode of operation, the
analog 4 to 20 mA is not used. Instead the transmitter draws a
constant 3.6 mA of current to maintain operation.
• Do not connect secondary communication device directly
across the power supply.
• Add 1 V DC to all minimum supply voltage values if using the
TEST connections.
• The maximum number of transmitters is 63.

Figure 3 Digital mode wiring diagram
In the multi-drop mode, the process variable signal of each
transmitter on the signal bus is digitally polled. The primary
communication device sequentially polls each transmitter
output on the bus. Each transmitter has its own unique
address that is assigned during configuration. The address
(1..15) allows the primary communication device to distinguish
between transmitters on the bus.
Each transmitter on the bus is wired from the primary

POWER (SIGNAL) terminals of the AWT210. Connect all
transmitters on the bus in parallel.
The minimum power supply voltage required for the loop is
typically determined by:
• minimum voltage supply = 14 V + (0.004 A x R)
• minimum current supply = 0.004 A x T
Where:
• R is the Load Resistance in ohms, and
• T is the number of transmitters on the bus
IMPORTANT (NOTE)
The equation for minimum supply voltage is based on
a maximum output current of 4 mA. In some cases
other transmitters may use a multi-drop minimum
current of greater than 4 mA. Consult the vendor
product instruction for multi-drop current values for
other equipment on the bus..
The load resistance must include the system input resistance
and the resistance of the wire. Analog meters or measurement
devices should not be connected to the bus since the
transmitters on the bus are not delivering an analog process
variable.
A secondary communication device can be connected anywhere
there is access to the signal wires, as long as it is not connected
directly across the power supply.
IMPORTANT (NOTE)
Only one secondary device can communicate on the
loop at any given time.
Sensor wiring and grounding
Refer to the AWT210 Operating Instructions (OI/AWT210-EN)
for sensor wiring and grounding instructions.

1AWT does not support device variables, only dynamic variables. Hence,
Command 9 returns a response code of 14 (Dynamic Variables returned for
Device Variables) as required by the HART specification. However, this return
value is seen as an error by Simatic PDC software. This response code may
be turned off in the device by enabling PDM compatibility at the following

Read Only, Calibrate, Advanced and Service levels.
Access control for HART can be enabled at the following menu:
Device Setup > Security Setup > HART Logging > Password Protected.
If this option is enabled, the user will have to log in with the appropriate
access level password before sending write commands to the device. Please
